The background of Sun Wukong's master, Grandmaster Bodhi, had many different explanations in online novels and traditional novels. The following was one of the more detailed explanations: According to Journey to the West, Patriarch Bodhi was a Daoist deity called the Giant Spirit God. It was said that he was originally a disciple under a large peach tree in the Heavenly Palace. He was captured by the Heavenly Army and Heavenly General because he had stolen a peach. However, during the process of being captured, he displayed extraordinary wisdom and martial arts, so he was sent by the Heavenly Palace to the human world to impart some Taoist knowledge and skills. During Sun Wukong's growth, Grandmaster Bodhi became his most important teacher. He taught Sun Wukong many important skills such as transformation, supernatural powers, martial arts, and so on. He also helped Sun Wukong improve his moral cultivation and wisdom. Therefore, Sun Wukong respectfully called him "Patriarch Bodhi" and used it as a symbol of wisdom and cultivation in many novels. It should be noted that the above statement is only one of the descriptions in online novels and traditional novels. The actual situation may be different.
