sun wukong real story

Sun Wukong is a famous character from Chinese mythology. In the real story, he was born from a magic stone. He learned powerful magic skills and caused much chaos in Heaven. Eventually, he was tamed by Buddha. He then accompanied Tang Sanzang on a journey to the West to fetch Buddhist scriptures, facing numerous monsters and challenges along the way.

Sun Wukong was one of the main characters in the Ming Dynasty novel Journey to the West. He was a stone ape born from an immortal stone. Because he led the monkeys into the Water Curtain Cave, he was honored as the "Monkey King". In order to learn the art of immortality, he worshipped the founder Bodhi as his teacher and was given the Dharma name "Sun Wukong". After he returned, the demons worshipped him. He forced his way into the East Sea Dragon Palace and obtained the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, the Phoenix-winged Purple Gold Crown, the Golden Suozi Armor, and the Lotus Root Silk Cloud Walking Shoes from the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas. He made a big fuss in the underworld and got the Venus to summon him to the Heavenly Court. He was granted the official title of Ma Wen. Because he hated the small official position, he self-proclaimed himself as the "Great Sage Equal to Heaven" and forced the Heavenly Court to acknowledge him. He also disturbed the Feast of Peaches due to drunkenness, stole immortal pills, and caused a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace. By accident, he cultivated the body of King Kong and the Fiery Golden Eyes. Finally, he was imprisoned in the Five Elements Mountain by Tathagata. After being suppressed in the Five Elements Mountain, he was enlightened by Guanyin. Five hundred years later, he was rescued by Tang Sanzang and gained the mixed name of "Monkey". From then on, he protected Tang Sanzang and went through 81 difficulties to obtain the true scriptures and cultivate the "Fighting Buddha". Sun Wukong's character image was also found in other works. For example, the male protagonist Kakarot in the Japanese manga Dragon Ball, whose original name was Sun Wukong, was a Saiyan from Planet Vegeta. Sun Wukong in the domestic anime One Hundred Thousand Cold Jokes was originally an ordinary monkey from Huaguo Mountain. He thought that he was born as a stone monkey and began a different life journey. However, these images were based on the re-creation or derivative creation of Sun Wukong in Journey to the West.

In the original work of Journey to the West and related explanations, there were many points of view that Sun Wukong might have died. In the original novel, the technique of immortality taught by the Bodhi Ancestor required him to go through three calamities and tribulations. If he could not avoid it, he would die. It was possible for Sun Wukong to die. Some people believed that in the real Monkey King plot, the one who was killed might be the real Wukong, and the Six-Eared Macaque was a substitute arranged by Tathagata. Because Sun Wukong rebelled and did not respect Tathagata, Tathagata had the motive to destroy him. The truth that Truth Listener did not dare to tell the truth might be that the backing of the Six-Eared Macaque was Tathagata, and the presence of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva could not stop this possible replacement, which suggested that the real Sun Wukong might have died. There was also a view that Sun Wukong died in 1958 in Yu County's Qianjing Township and Shanfang Village. Although he was powerful, he did not understand electricity due to the limitations of the era. He stepped on a high-voltage line and died of a short circuit. However, this was a fable interpretation. There was also a view that as long as Sun Wukong's soul was banished to the Nine Serenities, he would die forever and would never be reborn. Therefore, there were many reasons to support the theory that the real Sun Wukong was already dead.

Sun Wukong was born from the immortal stone of Huaguo Mountain. After learning the art, he had remarkable abilities. He was imprisoned in the Five Elements Mountain after wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace. Later, he followed Tang Sanzang to the West to obtain scriptures and subdue demons.

Although Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was present, Six-Eared Macaque didn't dare to stir up trouble in the underworld. However, Truth Listener knew but didn't dare to say anything. Perhaps it was because Six-Eared Macaque was backed by Gautama Buddha. 3.
