What is Jigong s status among the immortals? Who has a higher status between him and Yang Jian?

Jigong should be the reincarnation of the Dragon Descending Arhat, so he ranks first among the eighteen Arhats, and on the whole, he still belongs to an immortal with a relatively high position, and should belong to the middle and upper level. Compared with Yang Jian, it may be one level lower, because Yang Jian is one level higher than him.

Jigong has a higher status than Yang Jian. Jigong is the reincarnation of the dragon Arhat, and he is a general of the Buddha, compared to Yang Jian, who is only a junior of the last school.

Jigong and Yang Jian are two unrelated people, Yang Jian is indeed an immortal in the sky, but Jigong is different, he has a certain amount of mana, but he is not from the same period as Yang Jian, so there is no way to compare.

Jigong's status among the immortals is not high, because Jigong is equivalent to a folk immortal, and the status of the land is about the same, and compared with Yang Jian, Yang Jian's status is higher.

Jigong's status in Taoism is at the level of Tianzun, so Jigong can definitely be regarded as a Da Luo Jin Immortal. It is said that when Jigong was born, the "descending dragon" Arhat in Lingyin Temple suddenly fell, and it was rumored that Jigong was the reincarnation of the eighteen Arhats. Jigong has done countless good deeds, such as punishing black-hearted businessmen, saving innocent women, and punishing unfilial people.

He had a torn hat, a fan, a shoes, and a coat, and he looked crazy. At first, he became a monk in Guoqing Temple, and then lived in Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou, and then lived in Jingci Temple. Unbound by the precepts, fond of wine and meat, and behaving like crazy, he is a learned and virtuous monk, who is listed as the fiftieth ancestor of Zen Buddhism and the sixth ancestor of the Yang Qi sect.

Jigong understands traditional Chinese medicine and has many incurable diseases for the people.

Jigong family background

Yongning Village is outside the north gate of the ancient city, and the Jigong family lives on the bank of Zhe River. Although the Li family of Jigong is not prosperous, because of the successive eunuchs and wealthy families, it can also be called a prominent family on Tiantai. A large field on the west bank of Zhexi belongs to this family, and people also call it Li Jiayan.

Zhexi, which originates in Beishan, is a good place for Jigong to watch the water and rice, fish, swim and play when he was a child.

There is Longxi Garden on the side of the stone wall, which was the private manor of Jigong Li in ancient times, and the martyr's shrine was also set up here during the Anti-Japanese War. The ancestral residence of Jigong has been washed away with the years, and the vicissitudes of life have changed, and finally disappeared. The people of the hometown of the past generations admired Jigong, felt its virtue, and repeatedly built Jigong Buddhist Temple, Jigong Pavilion, Stone Wall Bridge and other memorial places at the site, hoping to re-light the holy relics of the living Buddha and show the holy virtue of Jigong, which is also a logical thing.

Jigong is an immortal who "integrates three religions", and his status is higher than Yang Jian's in history. When it comes to Buddhist monks, the first thing that comes to mind for many people is often the Buddhist patriarch, the Buddha Shakyamuni, the leader of the world; And the second thing that comes to mind is either the first ancestor of Zen Buddhism, Bodhidharma, or the famous Jigong "Ji Crazy Monk". This "crazy monk" can be described as a famous monk, and he was a well-known virtuous monk in the Southern Song Dynasty of our country.

He studied Buddhism deeply and was a leader praised by everyone in Buddhism at that time. Later, it was mythologized by the folk and religious circles of the past dynasties, and became an "immortal" with high mana. Compared with Yang Jian, the god of Erlang, who has a higher status?

In Buddhism, Jigong is the "Arhat" position, which is the famous "Dragon Descending Arhat" in Buddhism. Friends who know something about mythology may know Jigong's most well-known identity, that is, "Dragon Descending Arhat". Film and television dramas in the past have also made a big fuss about his identity, such as "Jigong" starring Stephen Chow and "The Legend of Jigong" starring Guo Degang, all of which are starring in the dragon descending Arhat Jigong.

Although the Dragon Descending Arhat is an Arhat position, his status is respected, and he is a "great Arhat". During the Southern Song Dynasty, the people were not happy, the court was dumbfounded, and the "dragon descending" actually represented the heroes of Jishidu, in folk mythology, enjoyed a lofty status, and incense was more prosperous than some Buddhas.

From the identity of "Dragon Descending Arhat" alone, the status of the Arhat is not lower than the "True Monarch" of the "Erlang Manifestation True Monarch" of Erlang God, not to mention that Jigong is still the best among the Arhats. After the Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty added the title of Jigong in a big way, and the government and the opposition at that time respected the Taoist "Longmen School" three-in-one thoughtJigong's divine position became "Purple Gold Arhat Ana, Venerable Divine Skill, Guangji Ancestor Sanyuan Praise Heavenly Venerable". Jigong integrates the three major gods of Arhat, Ancestor and Tianzun, that is, the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

Jigong at this time is not comparable to Yang Jian.

To sum up, Jigong is a great immortal of "three religions in one", and his status is higher than Yang Jian.

Jigong is not compatible with them at all among the immortals, because Jigong is a character in Buddhism, and Yang Jian is a character in a myth and legend of Taoism, and the two of them do not belong to the same system. If it is hard than Jigong's status, it is higher.

Jigong is an Arhat. Yang Jian is an immortal. Yang Jian's status among the immortals is high. Jigong has a higher status in people's hearts than Yang Jian.

Maybe it's higher than Yang Jian's status, Yang Jian needs to do things. But Jigong doesn't need to do things, he lives very comfortably every day, and he doesn't need to listen to anyone's orders to work step by step.

Jigong is a mortal, but it is mythologized, if you compare the dragon Arhat with the Erlang God, it seems that the Erlang God has higher combat power in Journey to the West.

As an ordinary cultivator, Jigong can compare with the great gods sacrificed by countless people across the country, which is really convincing.

Ji Gong is the head of the eighteen Arhats under the seat of Shakyamuni Buddha, Arhat, the status of the Arhat is the lowest in Buddhism, that is, the head of the security guard, Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun Erlang God, known as the god of war in the heavenly realm, nicknamed the little saint, under the command of three thousand grass head gods, once made a big fuss in the heavenly palace to compete with the Jade Emperor, axe split peach mountain to save his mother, the nephew of the Jade Emperor, and listen to the tune does not listen to the Xuan, the Jade Emperor has no way to take him, on mana, Ji Gong can not beat the Erlang God, on status, Erlang God is the nephew of the Jade Emperor, and listen to the tune does not listen to the Xuan, It means that the Jade Emperor wants Yang Jian to come, and Yang Jian can not come, which is quite bullish, and there are three thousand grass-headed gods under his hands, and there are many people under his hands, which is equivalent to the princes of the heavenly realm, so the status of Erlang God is much stronger than that of Jigong, and it is not at the same level at all

Jigong is an Arhat, the Arhat is a Bodhisattva above the Bodhisattva, and the Buddha is above, and Yang Jian is a level of saint and Buddha.

It is still Erlang who shows the status of the true monarch is higher.

One is the third generation of state-owned enterprises, and the other is one of the 500 middle-level private enterprises, can it be the same?

"Jigong" symbolizes the spiritual belief of "living Buddha to help the world and purifying all sentient beings" in the folk, and its "sacred image" has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Jigong is the "moral benchmark" of folk Buddhist scholars, and the "grassroots Buddha" in the hearts of the older generation.

Jigong is not only unshakable in the hearts of the common people, but also has an unshakable status in Buddhism and mythology, which is incomparable to Erlang God Yang Jian.

Jigong is a real person who has truly appeared in the long river of history, and his life is quite legendary.

The origin of Jigong can be traced back to the Southern Song Dynasty, Jigong is a native of Taizhou, Zhejiang, and his grandfather is a former dynasty concubine, born in a rich and noble family, formerly known as Li Xiuyuan. Jigong to the Buddha since childhood, gifted and intelligent, never forget, after the death of Jigong's parents, he saw through the life of wealth, old age, sickness and death, and finally ended up with a family to convert to Buddhism, since then there is no one in the world to know the book and reason, the gentle and elegant Li Xiuyuan, but there is one more crazy, help the poor and the tattered monk "Living Buddha Jigong".

Jigong accumulated virtue during his lifetime, eliminated violence and peace, and made immeasurable merits, and was honored as "Living Buddha" by the people after his death.

Folklore has it that when Jigong was born, the statue of the Arhat of the dragon enshrined in the Guoqing Temple suddenly collapsed, so the people sat down and regarded Jigong as the human body of the Arhat of the dragon.

With the passage of time, the image of Jigong has gradually been "religious", and the Buddha name of Jigong is quite special, and the people respect it as:

Great Compassion, Great Benevolence, Great Wisdom, Purple Gold, Arhat, Ana, Venerable Divine Skill, Guangji Ancestor, Sanyuan, Praise and Transformation of Heavenly Venerable".

Jigong's Buddha name is amazing:

Venerable Jin Luohan Ana, is the status of Jigong in Buddhism; Shengong Guangji is the status of Jigong in Confucianism; Sanyuan praises Tianzun, which is the supreme glory given to Jigong by Taoism.

Sanyuan refers to the three major religions of "Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism", and the word praise comes from the "Mean", which means "those who educate the world, and the world respects them", and Tianzun is the supreme honorific title in Taoism.

Ancient literati and scholars believed that although Jigong's pictogram was "tattered" and incompatible with the image of the "mighty and serious" gods and Buddhas, it was quite "close to the people", with the artistic characteristics of "elegance and common appreciation", and won the true transmission of the "Taoist" spirit, and Jigong was born in a scholarly family, and Buddhism and Confucianism were cultivated since childhood, so the ancient literati and scholars gave Jigong the supreme status of "Confucianism, Taoism and Buddha".

Before the creation of "Journey to the West", "Romance of the Gods", and "Erlang Treasure Scroll", Yang Jian, in folklore, was the god in charge of farming, hunting, and water conservancy.

Erlang God's illustrious "priesthood" is fictional by the author, and Jigong's honorific title is indeed given by the people according to his merits, and Jigong's status in Taoism is at the level of Tianzun, Yang Jian is just a true monarch, who is therefore Jigong's level is higher than Erlang God.

In fact, there are factions in the immortals, like Yang Jian, who is an immortal general who belongs to the side of the Emperor and the Queen of Heaven, and Jigong, as a living Buddha, is subordinate to the Buddha's knees, plus the Buddhists have always adhered to the idea of equality of all beings, so the status of the two cannot be compared.

His height, Jigong is the reincarnation of the dragon is the head of the 18 Arhats, it can be said that his status is very high, Yang Jian does not listen to the announcement, and there is no fixed position.

The two of them belong to different departments, Jigong is a member of Buddhism, while Yang Jian is from Heaven, each has its own advantages, so it can be regarded as an equal.

Jigong's status among the immortals is not high, and he has not reached the power possessed by the high-level, and his status is not as good as that of Erlang God Yang Jian.

Jigong's status among the immortals is average. Mainly on the side of Buddhism, the status is higher. Of course, Yang Jian's status is high, and Yang Jian is the nephew of the Jade Emperor.

It can't be compared together, Jigong is a living Buddha. He is a member of Buddhism, but he is not bound by the precepts of the Puritans. Yang Jian is an immortal of the heavenly court, and he is ranked in the immortal class. It is one of the immortals, and the immortal position is very high.
