The road of Xuanzang is famous in the country of Buddhism 9 .

The road to Tianzhu is full of unimaginable hardships.

Along the way, although there are no white bone spirits and Pansi caves, no bull demon kings and flame mountains, no ghosts and ghosts and ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties, there are endless desert yellow sand, there are uninhabited Gobi deserts, and there are troubles related to card checks and arrests by officials, and there is a danger of lack of water and food, and disorientation.

All of this was enough to bury him in a place where no one knew about it, or to force him to regret and return to the east.

However, none of this stopped Xuanzang's footsteps.

As early as the moment he stepped out of Chang'an, Xuanzang had already issued a grand vow to be absolutely victorious - this trip does not seek financial gain, no reputation, but it is the supreme law.

If you don't go to Tianzhu, you won't go back to the east.

It is better to die in the west than to live in the east? That's the power of faith.

It was this simple and great faith that enabled him to overcome all difficulties and dangers, even to the threat of death, and to stubbornly walk towards the holy place of his own life.

Master Xuanzang had profound attainments in Sanskrit and an extremely rigorous academic attitude, so the voluminous Buddhist scriptures translated by him have made achievements beyond their predecessors in terms of distinguishing and analyzing names, accurately understanding the meaning of the text, and in formulating translation styles and correcting the errors of old translations, thus opening up a new era in the history of Chinese translation.

Therefore, later generations called him the four great translators in the history of Chinese Buddhism, along with Kumarosh of the former Qin, the true meaning of Xiao Liang, and the non-emptiness of the Kaiyuan era. It is especially worth mentioning that among these four people, the other three are foreign monks: Kumarosh's ancestral home is Tianzhu, born in Guizi, the true meaning is the Western Tianzhu people, Bukong is the Northern Tianzhu people, and only Xuanzang is the only Chinese.

Liang Qichao said: "Since ancient times, not only Chinese have translated foreign books, but no one has translated more or better than him, even if you compare people all over the world, I am afraid that there is no one who translates the most books above him." ”

The creator of the Faxiangzong is Xuanzang, the best and most translated Buddhist scriptures is Xuanzang, and it is Xuanzang who advocates Buddhism the most. China's radical Buddhism, or only one person as a representative, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find a second one except Xuanzang. ”

Only great times can give birth to such great figures.

Biography. Xuanzang (602 664), commonly known as Master Sanzang, commonly known as Tang Seng, surnamed Chen, was a native of Luozhou Division (Yanshi Town, Yanshi City, Henan) in the Tang Dynasty. My grandfather and father were both officials. When Xuanzang was more than 30 years old, he was already well-known in the Buddhist world.

With the growth of his knowledge, he deeply felt that the theories of various schools were different, and it was difficult to make a definitive conclusion, so he decided to go to Tianzhu to explore the source.

In the third year of Zhenguan of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty (629 AD), Xuanzang went to Tianzhu. Later, he retrieved the scriptures and was received by the emperor. His deeds were adapted by Wu Chengen and written into "Journey to the West", one of China's four classical masterpieces, and have been widely circulated for thousands of years.

Xuanzang was a monk who traveled to India, the birthplace of Buddhism, to learn scriptures. He traveled 64,000 kilometers over a 16-year period from China, passing through Afghanistan, Kashmir and northern India.

Xuanzang traveled to the edge of the Gobi Desert in Central Asia, traveled west as far as Samarkand, and then turned south, crossing the Hindu Kush Mountains into India. In India, he was welcomed as a Buddhist teacher.

Xuanzang was in distress many times during the journey and almost died. The danger comes from bad weather and high mountains. Xuanzang once was drinking spring water and was almost killed by an arrow. He was later imprisoned in the kingdom of Taxila in northern India. In order to escape for his life, he almost froze to death.

Xuanzang's travels were carried out in secret, as the emperor at the time did not allow Chinese to travel outside the country. Later, when Xuanzang returned to China, the emperor ordered him to write a travel report. This work took up most of the rest of his life.

Go to the West Heaven to obtain the Mahayana Tripitaka Sutra.

A belief, Xuanzang went west.

Born to die, indomitable.

Half a life of misery is all given by the truth.

There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, and there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south.

A bodhicitta illuminates thousands of hearts.

In order to obtain the true scriptures, I went to the west to learn the scriptures.
