After 81 tribulations
The phrase "9981 difficulties" generally referred to the tribulations suffered by Tang Sanzang and his disciples in the classic Journey to the West. Tang Sanzang and his disciples received the Dharmic decree of Gautama Buddha and went to the Western Heaven to obtain scriptures. They crossed mountains and rivers, experienced many obstacles, and all kinds of tests. Finally, they achieved positive results and each became a Buddha. There were a total of 9981 difficulties. These tribulations had different situations at different stages: - [The Tang Monk in his childhood (First Four Difficulties): Including the Golden Cicada Master being banished to the mortal world, the Tang Monk being "born" out of the Chen family, being thrown into the river when he was one month old, and finding his relatives and crying out for injustice.] The last three difficulties described Tang Sanzang's childhood, and it was difficult to distinguish the traces of the three difficulties. - [Traveling West Alone (5th to 7th Difficulty): Encountering a Tiger Outside the City, Falling into a Pit and Falling into a Follower, and Ascending Twin Forks Ridge. These three difficulties were actually the story of falling into a pit and encountering a White Tiger Spirit at Twin Forks Ridge.] - "Disciple Selection (8th to 17th Difficulties)": For example, the difficulty of subduing Bajie, the yellow wind monster, and asking for spiritual blessings. There were many situations where one calamity was split into multiple small difficulties. It also included the test for the master and disciple, such as the "Four Saints Manifestation". - [Five Master and Disciple (18th to 79th Difficulties): This part will officially be a five-person team. There will still be many calamities that are difficult to determine.] The setting of the eighty-one difficulties was not strict. Sometimes it was divided into two or three difficulties to make up the number. Sometimes it was not Tang Sanzang himself who suffered directly, and there were also difficulties that could not be considered as the person who obtained the scriptures. From the specific descriptions of the 81 difficulties, each had its own meaning. Some were used as an analogy to nature, some symbolized society, some were used to insinuate history, and some were directly aimed at the human heart. It indicated that one would always experience many hardships in order to continue to grow. Different lives had to experience different tests in order to succeed. In addition, there was also the Yellow Emperor's Eighty-One Difficult Classics, which was said to have been written by Bian Que, a Qinyue person during the Warring States Period. This book was compiled in the form of questions and answers, and a total of 81 questions were discussed, so it was also called the Eighty-One Difficult Classics. "9981 difficulties" could also be used to refer to the number of hardships one had suffered. "Let go and become a Buddha, draw your saber!" The novel is equally exciting.
