Born on December 22, 1899, in Osaka Prefecture, he was raised in a family that managed the affairs of a local temple in Sakai City. He graduated from Sakai City Industrial Supplementary School. In 1921, he was ordained at Nansouji Temple in his hometown, Sakai, beginning his journey as a Zen monk. He served as the chief priest of Tokuzenji, a sub-temple of Daitokuji, and eventually became the head of the Daitokuji sect in 1953 and the abbot of Daitokuji, its 511th, in May 1968. He also held the position of highest advisor at Daitokuji and was involved in the restoration of Nyoian within Daitokuji in 1973 and the rebuilding of Matsugenin in Nara in 1980. From April 1982 to 1986, he served as the president of Hanazono University.
Known for his expertise in tea ceremony and calligraphy, he also advised prominent political and business figures, earning the nickname "political mentor."
