Journey to the West, Battle of the Gods ~ 1 Buddha's Teachings, Who's Who's Who?

#Journey to the West#Since the release of "Journey to the West", the theme has been divergent. There is a saying of "revering the Buddha and suppressing the Tao", and there is a saying of "degrading the Buddha and promoting the Tao". Worshiping Buddhism and suppressing taoism is the mainstream, because the whole thing is written is the story of the Rulai Sutra - Tang Monks taking the sutra, and finally the sutra is successful, Buddhism is carried forward in the Eastern Tang Dynasty; the derogatory Buddha Yang Dao believes that the author should be a Taoist person, which is full of metaphors and metaphors based on teaching alchemy, and there are logical and meticulous anti-Buddha views, the image of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Western Heavens is not necessarily how great and righteous, and even there are all kinds of unbearable things such as taking people's lives, asking for bribes and so on... It is really fair to say that the righteousness is reasonable, and the mother-in-law is justified.

However, no matter which is praised or degraded, it is a religious dispute, and the two families of Buddhism and Taoism collude with each other, fight openly and secretly, and consume each other's strengths, which runs through the whole book. To clarify this question, let's listen to the story first.

Story One

After Tang Monk left Chang'an, he encountered three monsters, General Yin, The Special Sergeant, and Xiong Shan Jun, and was saved by Taibai Venus. (13th)

Friendship cameo: General Taibai Venus Yin is a tiger, the special sergeant is a cow, and The Bear Mountain Jun is naturally a bear. These three cutscenes have a good life, and Taibai Venus is only to save people, not to remove demons. The tone of the dialogue between several yokai, it is not obvious that the cultivation is the Buddha is the Tao, but the tone of the village Xiucai, who now likes to soak in the café to talk about life, and this style.

Story two

The Tang monk passed through the Five Elements Mountain, rescued the walkers from difficulties, and accepted them as great disciples (the thirteenth and fourteenth times) "Oh, ma, ah, mi, mi, 吽", such as this old post from five hundred years ago, which is a transliteration of the Sanskrit lotus beads, which is said to symbolize the compassion and blessings of all bodhisattvas. Folk saying is "I'll coax you there".
