Dàozhèng 道正 (1614–1691), Liányuè 蓮月, was a Línjì chánshī of the early-Qīng Sìchuān “Shǔzōng” 蜀宗 lineage and a dharma-heir of Pòshān Hǎimíng 海明 破山海明 (1597–1666). The DILA authority standardizes the dharma-name as 印正, with 道正 / 蓮月正 / 蓮月印正 all attested as variants — the Jiāxīng Canon colophons and the 嘉興藏 catalog meta for both KR6q0445 and KR6q0446 use 道正, which is followed here.
