Saint Daniel was born in Smyrna in the year 1846. He graduated with excellent grades from the Evangelical School of Smyrna. From his 19th year of age, he desired to become a monk, and he visited many monasteries before finally settling down at the Monastery of Saint Panteleimon on Mount Athos, where he was tonsured a monk in 1866. Later, he would visit the Monastery of Saint Anastasia Pharamakolytria in Vasilika near Thessaloniki. While there, he contributed greatly to the spiritual revival of the Monastery and was beloved by all. Upon his return to Mount Athos, he remained for almost five years at the Holy Monastery of Vatopedi. From there, he was sent to his homeland, where he stayed for nine months. In 1881, he took up residence in his hut in Katounakia of Mount Athos, which later grew into the monastery of the Danielaioi brotherhood of today.
