    First of all, Tang Xuanzang's trip to India to learn scriptures was a major cultural exchange event. Second, based on what he had seen, he wrote The Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty, which was an important work for Li Shimin to understand the countries of Central and South Asia in the Tang Dynasty, which was of strategic significance, and in modern times, it is of guiding significance as a guide for archaeological excavations. Third, Tang Xuanzang relied on the scriptures he learned and carried in India to create the "Enlightenment Sect" of Chinese Buddhism, which is the most complex and esoteric sect in Chinese Buddhism, which perfected Chinese Buddhist culture and later spread to Japan.

    Fourth, Tang Xuanzang's translation career had a great impact on the Chinese Buddhist community, and before that, the translations of Kumarosh and others were called old translations, and Xuanzang's translations were called new translations, that is, many new terms were added. Fifth, Xuanzang's study of scriptures directly led to the emergence of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, a historic site in Xi'an, which was a storage place for the scriptures carried by Xuanzang. Sixth, Xuanzang's career of learning scriptures was interpreted into a literary work in later generations, that is, "Journey to the West", thus enriching Chinese classical literature.

    Finally, that is, the problem of transcendence you mentioned, the fundamental purpose of Xuanzang going to Tianzhu to learn scriptures is to understand the original appearance of the Buddhist scriptures, and the so-called transcendent beings in the East are just an appendix to "Journey to the West", and it is okay to read the story.

    What cultural exchange is summarized by later generations, Tang Seng is to study abroad to learn scriptures, because in ancient times there was no supranational publishing and printing industry, Buddhist scriptures all rely on hand-copying, translation and circulation, from India to China in the process, because the level of translation and copying personnel is different, after the meaning and original meaning are completely different after passing to China, some are simply using Chinese characters to note the Sanskrit pronunciation, as for the Buddhist scriptures originally said what is not clear at all, so that the Chinese Buddhist circles at that time caused a lot of controversy, the public said that the public is reasonable, and the mother said that the mother is reasonable. Tang Seng is to find the original Buddhist scriptures, learn the true truth of Buddhism by studying Sanskrit (ancient Indian), and then translate it accurately after returning to achieve the purpose of spreading Buddhism. Buddhism is essentially a philosophy, emphasizing belief in goodness and goodness, the cycle of cause and effect, and the universality of sentient beings, which is not transcendence, but teaches the public to believe in Buddha and become a Buddha (the original meaning of Buddha is a person of great wisdom), and after death, ascend to the Western Heavenly Bliss, and liberate people from life, old age, sickness, death, greed, hatred, hatred, love, parting, and all kinds of suffering.

    According to the principles of Buddhism, you don't believe in Buddhism, don't keep the Buddha's way, and only chant the scriptures after death can not be reborn.

    Tang monk to learn the scriptures is of great significance, I will first talk about the phenomenon after he took the scriptures: before the prevalence of Buddhism in our country was mainly Theravada Buddhism, that is, people must go to the monastery to practice, like the Northern and Southern Dynasties Emperor Liang Wu Emperor three times monk is proof, is not conducive to the development of Buddhism. After that, Mahayana Buddhism prevailed in China, that is, as long as there is a Buddha in the heart, it is okay not to practice, and then to promote the localization of Buddhism, so that Buddhism and Taoism and Confucianism are parallel, and become the main religion of the Tang Dynasty.

    Second, the people's beliefs were changed, the previous Buddhas were all without mana, and after that, Buddhism advocated that the Buddha had boundless mana, and then made people have a sense of awe.

    This is the impact on the people, the exchange of cultures is known to everyone.

    It would be nice if you simply regarded it as a kind of philosophical exchange, and the other is that it has a certain effect on the standardization of Buddhism.

    It is recommended that you take a look at the "Tang Dynasty Western Regions".

    That's right. Tianzhu is a collective term for ancient China and other East Asian countries to present-day South Asian countries such as India and Pakistan. In Chinese history, the earliest record of India is in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Dawan", which was called body poison at that time.

    The Book of Han records: "From the southeast of the poisonous country, it can be thousands of miles, and it is the city of Shujia." ”。

    The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Legend of the Western Regions records that "a person in the Tianzhu Kingdom is poisoned". At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was collectively called Tianzhu. Four major empires have appeared in the history of Tianzhu:

    The Mauryan Empire, the Gupta Empire, the Delhi Sultanate, and the Mughal Empire.

Yes, when the Tang Dynasty was established, there were indeed many generals, but there were many people who did not meet the conditions that have been handed down. In my opinion, a capable general does not mean that he can be handed down, to give a simple example, Guan Yu led his army to win a battle, then his lieutenant general must also be a capable person, so does anyone remember Guan Yu's lieutenant? Next, I will analyze the reasons why so many generals in the Tang Dynasty have not been handed down. >>>More
