Journey to the West: Monk Tang's Journey to the West

Tang Seng, an eminent monk in the Tang Dynasty, was compassionate and believed in Buddhism. He wanted to obtain the Mahayana scriptures and save all sentient beings in the world. In order to promote Buddhism and save the world, he resolutely bid farewell to his hometown of Chang'an and embarked on the long journey to Xitian Leiyin Temple alone to obtain Buddhist scriptures. On the way to the west, he successively conquered Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Monk Sha and Bailongma, formed a team of Buddhist monks who shared the same heart, and rushed to Lingshan together. On the long journey westward, hardships came one after another. The four masters and apprentices experienced ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships. They faced the frame-ups of monsters and monsters, the test of natural disasters and illusions, and also resisted the temptations of beauty and power. Sun Wukong has great magical powers and can slay demons. Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha each perform their duties and assist with their wholeheartedness. However, Tang Monk remains true to his original intention and determination, and always adheres to his original intention of practice. There is a secret promoter behind this Buddhist scripture journey, and the power of obeying the Tathagata's decree secretly protects the whole process. This force never appears directly to intervene, but only quietly resolves dangers and clears obstacles in critical situations. It is secretive and invisible but works throughout the entire process, showing its unpredictable power. After fourteen years of arduous journey, the master and the disciples crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, overcame many hardships, and finally arrived at Lingshan to retrieve the true scripture. Monk Tang has perfected his merits and achieved positive results. This journey to the west is not only a pilgrimage to seek Buddhist teachings, but also a transformational journey for masters and disciples to overcome their inner demons and hone their growth, interpreting the precious core of perseverance and seeking truth for good.
