Tang Seng and Sun Wukong, who has a high status of Buddha?

I have read some sources that say that the status of the Buddha is greater than that of the Bodhisattva, and that the Bodhisattva is second only to the Buddha. Then, Sun Wukong protected Guanyin before Wukong was born, and he had become a Buddha, but the Bodhisattva body came to show compassion. So according to Mr. Xu Jingbo's ".

In the hundredth chapter of the original Journey to the West, the scripture learning team returned to the West after sending the scriptures, if they came to reward them according to their merits, they named Tang Seng as the Buddha of Zhantan Merit, and Sun Wukong as the Buddha of Fighting and Defeating, so whose title has a higher gold content?

"Journey to the West".Sun Wukong was named the Buddha of Victory.

Fighting to defeat the Buddha is one of the famous "thirty-five Buddhas" in Buddhism, "Journey to the West" in the Monkey King who experienced nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties was finally named the Fight to defeat the Buddha, the so-called "Buddha", is the meaning of "enlightened", is the saying that belongs to the Buddhists, ** "Journey to the West" in the Monkey King's title is in Tianzhu Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, is the boundary of Xiniu Hezhou (not the earth), belongs to the description of artistic creation.

After the four masters and apprentices, they were respectively titled: Tang Seng.

Named the Buddha of Zhantan Merit, Wukong was named the Buddha of Fighting Victory, Zhu Bajie.

Named the messenger of the pure altar.

The sand monk was named the golden-bodied Arhat, and the white dragon was named the Eight Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattvas, enjoying the positive fruits. The four people's sealed fruit positions are mainly based on how much effort they contribute on the journey to the west, followed by whether the backstage is hard enough to seal.

Tang Seng's Buddhist title is Zhantan Merit Buddha.

The Buddha of Meritorious Merit is located on the northwest side of the Buddha among the 35 Buddhas, with a blue body, touching the ground with his right hand to make a mark, and his left hand to fix the seal, and has the merit of reciting this Buddha's name, which can stop the sinful deeds of fasting monks in the past life. In layman's terms, Zhan Tan Merit Buddha is mostly an honorary title, which is consistent with the identity and ability of Tang monks.

Xuanzang's hometown is full of his monuments. There are mainly Xuanzang's former residence, Tang Seng Temple, Tang Seng Tomb, Tang Sanzang Holy Sect Preface Monument, Gong Tomb, and Mausoleum. Locals rarely call him by a nickname, usually calling him Tang Seng.

Historical merit

Tang Seng was a monk at the age of eighteen and converted to Buddhism, often read at night, studied the Buddhist classics continuously, and had a very high understanding, and at the age of 20, he was named Chinese Buddhism, and was loved by Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Later, he was secretly selected by the Buddha to go to the west to learn scriptures, and gave three treasures, namely a robe, a nine-ring tin staff, and a tight mantra. Tang Seng is tall, elegant, kind and kind, and has a very high attainment in Buddhist scriptures.

Tang Seng finally sealed the Buddha of Zhantan Merit.

Tang Seng, surnamed Chen, legal name "Xuanzang", is respected as "Master Sanzang", secular as "Tang Seng", nicknamed "Jiang Liuer", one of the protagonists in the Chinese classical masterpiece "Journey to the West", the prototype is the Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang.

Tang Seng in the previous life for the Buddha's second apprentice Jin Chanzi, because of the contempt for Buddhism and was relegated to the lower realm by the Buddha, under the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Tang Tai purpose, not far to the West Heaven to seek the true scriptures, on the way to receive Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing three apprentices, experienced eighty-one difficulties, and finally obtained the true scriptures to return to the Tang Dynasty.

In the 100th episode of Journey to the West, Tang Seng and Sun Wukong both became Buddhas, of which Tang Seng ranked second to last and Sun Wukong ranked first from the bottom. So, before the two of them became Buddhas, who was in the bottom line? What merit did he have to become a Buddha?

1. Tang monk in the west after obtaining the true scriptures was named Zhantan merit Buddha, in the thirty-five Buddhas, located in the northwest of the Buddha, his body is blue, the right hand touches the ground, the left hand seals, holding the merit of reciting the name of the Buddha, can eliminate the past life, stop the sins of the monks.
