Who is the founder of The Journey to the West Zhongshu Bodhi? Why did you expel the Monkey King from his inheritance?
There is one person in The Journey to the West who has to mention. He is the Monkey King's teacher.
For the first time, in order to seek Tao, the Monkey King spent more than 89 years in the south, strung the Great Wall and visiting small counties. Suddenly, he went to the West Sea, thinking that there must be immortals overseas. He made a raft alone and drifted across the West Sea until Mr. Niu Hezhou met a woodcutter at the border.
The woodcutter said that this mountain is called Lingtai Square-inch Mountain, and there is a three-star cave with a slanting moon in it. There is a fairy in the cave called the founder of Xubodhi. There are countless disciples of the founder who went out, and there are still thirty or forty people practicing from him. You walk seven or eight miles south along that path, and that's his home.
What the woodcutter said was that he should be called Bodhi.
The Monkey King got the woodcutter's advice and went to Sanxing Cave in Xieyue. The Monkey King dressed up and followed the boy into the depths of the cave to watch: layers of deep pavilions and magnificent buildings, once in the northern corner of the Pearl Palace, there would be no secluded room. Until under the Yaotai, I saw Bodhi's father sitting on the stage, with thirty fairies standing on both sides of the stage.
This is the bodhi patriarch sitting on the stage.
This name is difficult to distinguish! It can be said that it is called the "Bodhi founder". It can also be said that the name must be "Bodhi Patriarch". Is it called the founder of Xubodhi? Or bodhi? Identity is crucial.
Suppose the founder's name is Xu Bodhi, then there is nothing to argue about. He is one of the top ten disciples of the Buddha. He is a Buddhist. It happened that all the people around him were boys and fairies. The Monkey King didn't even wear a hat, a red collar, a yellow silk belt and black boots. He is not a monk, unlike a Taoist fairy. What can be confirmed is that the founder is also a good monk and a good man.
The vulgar behavior of our ancestors is nothing more than to hide our identity. If he hides his identity, he can't use his original name, otherwise there is no need to hide it. Therefore, the name of Xu Bodhi cannot be established. This founder should be called Bodhi. When the woodcutter said that he would call him Bodhi, his original intention was that the Monkey King must call him Bodhi when he met this founder. In other words, the woodcutter is reminding the Monkey King.
Why did the woodcutter remind the Monkey King? Who is this Bodhi founder?
For this question, there are hints in Journey to the West.
The thirty-fourth time, the Monkey King turned into a little demon to invite Kyubi no Youko Fox. Walking to the door, the Monkey King said to himself, I have always been a hero of the people. I only worship three people: the Buddha in the western paradise and Guanyin in the South China Sea. The Lord of the Two Boundaries saved me, and I made four obeisances. Today, he taught me to worship this monster. If you don't bow your head, you will stay in the wind. Bitter! I'm only trapped for master. What a shame!
This is the Monkey King's heartfelt words. I have been a hero of the people, and I have paid homage to three people. The three worshippers spoke in detail, including their identity and location. They worship Buddha in the Western Heaven, Guanyin in the South China Sea and Tang Priest in the two boundary mountains.
But here's a problem! When the Monkey King was seeking Taoism in Fangcun Mountain, he saw Bodhi's ancestor, knelt down and kowtowed countless times, and had to say goodbye when he left. By rights, the Monkey King should worship four people. Why didn't the Monkey King mention worshipping Bodhi? Let's analyze it.
1) It may be that the Monkey King forgot the Bodhi patriarch, so he said that he would not worship the three people.
2) It may be that the Monkey King promised the Bodhi patriarch and never mentioned the word Master again, so he didn't dare to think about it in his mind.
3) Perhaps the Bodhi patriarch was changed by one of the three people, namely, Buddha, Guanyin and Tang Priest, so the Monkey King stopped worshipping the three people and actually included the Bodhi patriarch.
Which of the three is the most likely? The seventeenth time, when the Monkey King was making a scene in the dark wind, the Monkey King said with a smile, "My son, stand still and listen carefully! I-I have a high skill since I was a child, and I became a hero with the wind. Cultivate the mind and nature, cultivate the truth, endure the sun and the moon, jump out of reincarnation and escape. A little sincerity once visited Dao and collected medicine seedlings on Lingtai Mountain. There is an old fairy in that mountain with a life span of 108,000 years. I worshipped him as a teacher and showed me the way to live forever.
Judging from this confession of the Monkey King, he not only didn't forget the founder of Bodhi, but also mentioned learning from Lingtai Mountain. In other words, the first two may be eliminated. In this way, it is the most reliable change that Bodhi was founded by Buddha, Guanyin and Tang Priest. Then we set out from the place where the Monkey King worships these three people.
The fourteenth time, when the Tang Priest rescued the Monkey King from the mountain, he only heard a loud noise, which was really a ground fissure and landslide. Everyone was shocked, only to see that the monkey had already arrived at Sanzang Horse and knelt down in the rain: "Master, I'll come out!" " "Worship the monk and worship the four. The Monkey King worshiped the Tang Priest in the two boundary mountains, but Tang Priest did not meet the requirements.
The seventeenth time, the Monkey King invited Guanyin to collect the black bear essence, and the Monkey King said, "I am protecting the Tang Priest and I am embarrassed to see the Bodhisattva." The heavens came to the cave to report. Bodhisattva calls in, and Monkey obeys the Dharma and worships on the lotus platform. The Monkey King worships Guanyin in the South China Sea, so Guanyin doesn't conform either.
The Monkey King worships Buddha in the Western Heaven. The western paradise belongs to Mr. Xi Niu Hezhou, or Mr. Xi Niu Hezhou belongs to the western paradise, so the Buddha conforms to it. At the same time, before the Monkey King said "no worshipping three people", there was no worshipping Buddha in The Journey to the West. Suppose this Buddha is the Tathagata, and the Monkey King and the Buddha met once when there was a big fight in heaven. The Monkey King didn't worship this time. The Monkey King, a Buddha who has never worshipped, said that he had worshipped, and the Monkey King, a bodhi ancestor who had worshipped, did not mention it! What does this mean? It shows that Bodhi was changed by Buddha. Is there circumstantial evidence? There really is.
Collateral evidence 1: When Bodhi's founder named the Monkey King, he said: Our school has twelve words, which are' vast wisdom such as nature, sea, insight, consciousness' and so on. These twelve are Buddhist terms, which roughly mean: having vast wisdom, understanding the true nature of truth (restoring the truth of the universe), and entering a perfect state (reaching the highest state). Buddha! The identity of Bodhi's founder is Buddha.
Circumstantial evidence II. The place where Bodhi lived is called Lingtai Fangcun Mountain and Xieyue Sanxing Cave. Bodhi means enlightenment, namely Buddha. Consistent with circumstantial evidence one As the name implies, the founder of Buddha is Buddha. And gv 10 means heart. This means that the Buddha lives in the heart of the Monkey King.
Wine and meat cross the intestines, sit in the Buddha's heart! The Monkey King was originally a Buddhist middleman, referred to as Buddha for short. If you ask a Buddha: Where is the Buddha? There is only one answer: Buddha is in my heart! Bodhi was founded by the Buddha.
In other words, there are three buddhas in Journey to the West, such as Tathagata, Oriental Buddha, and then Buddha. Which Buddha is the incarnation of this Bodhi?
The first time: the Monkey King saw Bodhi's father sitting on the stage, and it really was-Jin Xian was clean, and the West saw Bodhi wonderfully. If you don't die or live three or three lines, you will be full of goodwill. Emptiness changes with it, just like nature. The same fate as heaven, solemnity, exorcist, and bright heart have been robbed.
Journey to the West gives Bodhi's founder a great sense of Jin Xian. What is the concept of Dajue Jin Xian? In the first year of Xuanhe in Song Huizong (1 1 19), he tried to change the Buddha to Dajue Jin Xian. I feel that Jin Xian is equal to Buddha. What is the concept of Buddha? Buddha is the founder of Buddhism, Sakyamuni. Who is Sakyamuni Tuo? The Tathagata smiled and said, "I am Sakyamuni, the venerable figure in the western paradise.
Bodhi was founded by Dajue Jin Xian! I think Jin Xian is a Buddha! Buddha is Sakyamuni, Sakyamuni is Tathagata! It's clear enough. The bodhi founder is the Tathagata. The Monkey King's so-called Buddhist worship in the West is actually the worship of Bodhi in Xiniuhezhou. This is also the reason why the Monkey King said that he would not worship the three people again, but he did not mention the founder of Bodhi. So the woodcutter's reminder is to tell the Monkey King the status of Tathagata.
With this relationship, as a disciple of the Tathagata, the Monkey King's learning speed can only be described as swift and violent. Like immortality, Bodhi, the founder of Bodhi, said that Wukong's mind is blessed, so he must remember the formula and adjust his breath in the afternoon before noon. With the magic number changing seventy-two, Bodhi's father whispered something, and I don't know what he said. This monkey king knows everything, so he knows everything. At that time, he practiced while learning formulas and learned 72 kinds of changes. Like a somersault cloud, the founder passed on another formula. That night, Wukong learned the somersault cloud by practicing the mind method.
To put it bluntly, these spells don't need to be taught at all. The Monkey King would have. Just like Nezha with a body, his magical power is undiminished and his thoughts are immortal.
In this case, the Tathagata appeared as Bodhi, not to teach the Monkey King magic. He hid his identity to arrange the task! Buddha said: difficult, difficult, difficult! Tao is the most mysterious, don't take the elixir for granted. Pass on the wonderful tips without meeting anyone.
Then there are internal dangers and external dangers. As a yogi, Neidan is by no means idle. This point need not be emphasized. Tathagata, don't take Waidan seriously. The meaning is too clear, that is to eat!
The Monkey King then received the task of eating! Of course, if you want to eat elixir, you must first contact elixir. Where is the elixir of life? In the 33-day palace, the Monkey King had no choice but to go to heaven. So how will the Monkey King go to heaven? Let's keep talking. ..................
