In the novel Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang and his disciples defeated demons and devils all the way to the Western Paradise after 81 difficulties. Finally, they sought the true scriptures for the Tang Dynasty. In real history, Tang Sanzang's common name was Chen Yi. He was born in the Sui Dynasty and was born into a prestigious family. However, his childhood was tragic. His family was in decline and his parents died early. When he was 11 years old, he became a monk at Jingtu Temple in Luoyang with his elder brother. His Buddhist name was Xuanzang. Xuanzang had been intelligent and studious since he was a child. He was very perceptive and his reputation quickly spread throughout Luoyang. He traveled around the world, visited famous teachers, and learned many scriptures. However, he found that each master explained different scriptures and was confused, so he decided to go west to India to explore the real Dharma. At that time, he had petitioned the imperial court to travel west to seek the law but was rejected. In the third year of Zhenguan (629 AD), due to the famine among the people, the imperial court allowed the people to make a living on their own. Xuanzang set out from Chang 'an. He had sneaked out of the country. In reality, he did not have the customs clearance document given by the Tang Emperor, nor did he have an entourage. Instead, he walked alone for more than 50,000 kilometers. The entire journey to the west lasted for 17 years. He passed through 138 countries and learned more than 20 languages, including Sanskrit, ancient Indian, and Tocharian. When he passed by Gaochang Country, he was forced by the king to stay as the national teacher. However, he traveled west only to seek the law. He showed his determination through hunger strike and finally moved the king. The king and he became sworn brothers and used the strength of the whole country to help him travel west. He also wrote letters to the countries in front of him to provide convenience along the way. The desert he passed through was extremely dangerous. There were no birds or beasts in the 800-mile desert. There were no plants or humans. He once knocked over a kettle and did not drink a drop of water for five days and four nights. He eventually fainted and was woken up by the cold wind at night. He insisted on walking a few miles and found Wild Horse Spring before he was rescued. He had also encountered robbers many times and had a narrow escape. He had once encountered robbers who wanted to kill him after robbing him of his property, but because of the uneven distribution of the stolen goods, they scattered in a hubbub. He had also crossed the Great Snow Mountain, and only half of the 30 people who had traveled with him survived in a few days. However, he had always been firm in his belief and told himself that he would rather die in the Western Heaven than live in the Eastern Land. Eventually, he arrived at the Nalanda Temple of the Magadha Kingdom, the highest academy in ancient India. He studied under a famous teacher and became famous. The abbot of the Nalanda Temple wanted to pass the throne to him, but he refused. He said that he wanted to return to his motherland to enlighten the people of the Tang Empire. In the 19th year of Zhenguan (645 AD), Xuanzang returned to Chang 'an at the age of 43. He brought back 520 sets of 657 Buddhist scriptures, relics of eminent monks, and remains. He was treated with courtesy by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, and the people were shocked. He refused the invitation to be an official and stayed in the Great Mercy Temple. He spent 20 years in charge of the translation of Buddhist scriptures. In his life, he translated more than 1300 volumes of Buddhist scriptures and became the most successful Buddhist master in the history of translation.

In Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang was also known as Tang Sanzang. He was handsome, handsome, and proficient in Buddhism. In his previous life, he was the second disciple of Buddha, the Golden Cicada. He was demoted to the lower realm because he did not want to listen to Buddha's lecture. He was reincarnated as a subject of the Tang Dynasty and became a monk since childhood. His Dharma name was Xuanzang. Tang Sanzang was selected to host the Land and Water Conference for Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Guanyin appeared and told him that the Mahayana Buddhism of the Great Leiyin Temple in India could free the world from suffering. He volunteered to go west to learn. Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had sworn brothers with him and called him " Imperial Brother." On the way to the west, Tang Sanzang took in three disciples. His eldest disciple, Sun Wukong, was the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain. He had supernatural powers and became his disciple after being rescued by Tang Sanzang. He had subdued demons and protected Tang Sanzang along the way. His second disciple, Zhu Bajie, was originally Marshal Tianpeng. He was demoted to the mortal world because he violated the heavenly rules. He was mistakenly thrown into a pig's fetus. Later, he followed Tang Sanzang to the Western Heaven to obtain scriptures. His third disciple, Sha Wujing, was once a curtain-rolling general. After accidentally breaking the glass cup, he was banished to the lower realm and became a demon in the Flowing Sand River. Later, he also joined the Tang Sanzang. Tang Sanzang also had the white dragon horse that the little white dragon had transformed into as his mount. The four of them had gone through 81 difficulties along the way. Tang Sanzang had always adhered to his faith. Although he sometimes seemed indecisive and could not distinguish right from wrong, he was merciful, kind, pious and persevering. He took it as his duty to save all living beings. Finally, he reached the Western Heaven and obtained the true scripture. He cultivated into the right fruit and was conferred the title of "Tan Merit Buddha".
In Journey to the West, Tang Sanzang was usually seen as a benevolent figure. He had become a monk since he was a child. He adhered to the principle of being vegetarian and was unwilling to harm living beings. For example, in the face of Sun Wukong's actions of killing a mountain bandit, he would be heartbroken and think that even villains should not kill easily and should be reported to the authorities for punishment. This reflected his compassionate attitude towards life. However, Tang Sanzang's image was also complicated. He seemed to have deviated from compassion in some situations. For example, when facing tigers, leopards, wolves, and jackals being hunted by hunters, he witnessed the slaughter process but did not object, and when Sun Wukong killed a tiger and skinned it to make clothes, he was indifferent. However, this might be because he thought that these tigers, leopards, and wolves were fierce creatures and deserved their fate. In addition, Tang Sanzang also had the intention to kill. After he learned that his father was killed and his mother was taken, he participated in the punishment of his enemies. He even gouged out the heart and liver of Liu Hong, the enemy who killed his father, to sacrifice to his father. When he was in the Kingdom of Women, he accidentally drank the water of the Zimu River and became pregnant. He had the idea of abortion, which also conflicted with the Buddhist concept of not killing. However, in general, Tang Sanzang's performance in most cases was still in line with the image of compassion. He was devoted to Buddhism, insisted on learning from Buddhism, and had compassion and tolerance for his disciples. For example, in some versions, he was willing to sacrifice his own interests for his disciples. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
