The He Haishu 何海曙
Paul PengShare
He Haishu was a native of Anyi, Jiangxi Province, in the late Ming Dynasty.
His courtesy name was Sihe, and he served as a Taoist priest at the Huncheng Courtyard of Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi.

During the Chongzhen reign period (1628–1644) of the Ming Dynasty, he entered the Taoist temple (referring to the Huncheng Courtyard or a related institution on Longhu Mountain). He treated senior Taoist priests with the etiquette due to a teacher and later held the position of Tidian of the main temple – a role responsible for managing the temple’s daily affairs, ritual activities, and Taoist practitioners.
Accounts of his life and deeds can be found in Longhu Shanzhi (Annals of Longhu Mountain).
