Mǎnzhì was originally from Sìchuān 四川. Little is known about his youth. He left home at Wūyóu Temple 烏尤寺 in 1922, and that same year he tested in to the first class at the Wǔchāng Buddhist Seminary 武昌佛學院. He studied for 2 years and graduated in July, 1924. After graduating, he went to Nánjīng 南京 to study Consciousness-Only 唯識 thought with Ōuyáng Jìngwú 歐陽竟無 at the China Inner Studies Institute 支那內學院, making him one of the very few people to study at both the Wǔchāng Seminary and the Inner Studies Institute.
