Tongan Guanzhi (Chinese: 同安觀志; Japanese: Dōan Kanshi) was a Zen Buddhist monk during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in 10th century China. Traditionally he is considered to be the student of Tongan Daopi. However the basis for this belief comes from a text by Huihong called the Chanlin sengbao zhuan (Chronicle of the Sangha Treasure in the Groves of Chan) which was completed in 1119 many years after Tongan’s death.
