The world is bustling, all for profit;The world is crowded, all for profit. In Journey to the West, most practitioners hope that they will achieve the golden body and achieve positive results by going through tribulations.

But there is such a Buddha, she is different, she is only worthy of becoming a Buddha at the age of 8, and she does not stop and be complacent just because she became the supreme Buddha at a young age.

So who is she?Now that she has become a Buddha, why is she willing to be a servant of the Bodhisattva?

It all started when she overheard Manjushri preaching. She was"Twenty Heavens".On the nineteenth day of the Middle Days, the daughter of the Dragon King of Bhara has been living in the Dragon Palace with her father and is a noble princess of the sea. Once, Manjushri came to the Dragon Palace to give a lecture to a group of water tribes, and the little princess also followed everyone to listen to Manjushri's lecture.

I don't know if it's because Manjushri is too profound, or if the ability of other water tribes is limited, except for the 8-year-old little princess who not only understands what Manjushri said, but also touches the class, and other water tribes don't know much about what Manjushri said.

After this incident, everyone in the Buddhist world knew that the little princess was extremely talented. So, the little princess took this opportunity to go to LingshanAt the age of 8, he became one of the Buddhas of Lingshan.

For the little princess to become a Buddha at the age of only 8, the Buddhas have different views, some Buddhas believe that the things in the world, easy to get, often not cherished, only after a lot of hardships, the final will be precious.

Other Buddhas believe that the little princess's extremely high understanding of the Dharma is rare in the world, and that it would be even better if she was allowed to come to Lingshan and teach her.

The little princess became a Buddha, the Buddhas have been controversial for a long time, and there is still no conclusion, at this time, the dragon king and the little princess also feel that it is not necessarily a good thing for the little princess to show such an amazing talent too early.

Moreover, the little princess also felt that she understood Manjushri's teachings, maybe she was crooked, but it just happened to be true, and it did not prove that her strength was necessarily stronger than other practitioners.

In order to Xi practice the Dharma more steadily and solidly, the little princess went to the Nanhai Guanyin Bodhisattva and followed the Bodhisattva to practice Xi Dharma.

After coming to Guanyin Bodhisattva, the little princess changed her original way of life, and the immortals who didn't know what was going on only knew that he had given up a great opportunity to go to Lingshan, and they didn't know the true thoughts of the little princess.

The little princess herself didn't care about these distractions, but followed Guanyin Bodhisattva to learn Xi, and obeyed Guanyin Bodhisattva's instructions to do some things.

Thousands of years later, everyone gradually forgot the past deeds of the little princess, and only knew that there was a dragon girl beside Guanyin Bodhisattva, who followed the Bodhisattva's instructions to do things.

Later, the four masters and apprentices of the scripture learning team encountered the catastrophe of the red child, and Sun Wukong was burned by the red child's three-flavor true fire and had nothing to do, so he came to Guanyin Bodhisattva for help, and explained to Guanyin Bodhisattva that the red child pretended to be Guanyin.

Guanyin Bodhisattva's rare anger also wanted to try Wukong, so he threw the net bottle in his hand into the South China Sea and asked Wukong to pick it up.

As a result, Wukong flew with all his strength, but he couldn't pick up the net bottle, so Guanyin asked the dragon girl to pick it up, and the dragon girl picked it up without much effortWukong was amazed that the Dragon Lady had such divine powers.

Guanyin Bodhisattva felt that it was time to subdue the Red Child, so he took Wukong's mind and went with Wukong to subdue the Red Child.

It can be seen that the dragon girl has been by the Bodhisattva's side for thousands of years, and her practice has been fruitful. With the skills of the dragon girl, it is enough to leave Guanyin Bodhisattva to practice alone, but the dragon girl feels that the Dharma is profound, and what she has practiced is far from enough, so she has no distractions, and then continues to practice with Guanyin by Guanyin's side.

Even if others sigh for the dragon girl, but after all, it is someone else's idea, others may seek fame and fortune, and the merit is complete, while the dragon girl seeks to move forward steadily and have a clear conscience. The immortals and Buddhas are not dragon girls, and they know the joy of dragon girls. Different beliefs do not conspire with each other.

Zhong Yong in the Northern Song Dynasty was able to export poems at the age of five and was known as a prodigy. His father was overjoyed, so he took Xiao Zhongyong around to perform, and did not let Zhongyong continue to study Xi.

*From the web.

After Zhongyong's performance, there was continuous applause, but after a long time, people felt that Zhongyong was not as godly as the rumors, but an ordinary child or even an ordinary child.

If the dragon girl only became a Buddha at the age of 8, she felt that she was gifted, and she no longer continued to concentrate on learning Xi, at a young age, and listened to too many flattering words, would the ending be the same as Zhongyong's injury, when the initial amazement faded, the Buddhas of Lingshan would also feel that the dragon girl was actually no different from other practitioners.

But the dragon girl did not do this, but after thinking about it, she decided to devote herself to learning Xi Guanyin Bodhisattva, no matter how many years have passed, she still does not change her original intention, does not ask about cause and effect, and does not ask about the future.

One of the things that is valuable about the Dragon Maiden is that she knows her own shortcomings, and she knows what she really needs, so she makes the most appropriate choice for the Dragon Maiden herself, which is considered incredible by others.

In all practices, mind cultivation is extremely important. A heart must withstand ** and endure loneliness. Just as, in the episode of the Four Saints Testing Zen Mind in the TV series "Journey to the West", Manjushri Bodhisattva said that there are many tigers and leopards and demons on the West Heaven Road, and their minds are not strong, and it is difficult to achieve positive results.

The real Buddha is not a robe made of precious stones and gold wires, and the ** is the Buddha in his mouth, let alone the accumulation of merits for goodness. The true Buddha, in the heart, is not disturbed by the outside world, let alone invaded by evil thoughts.

Nowadays, many people feel that they are tired, in addition to the necessary living expenses and mortgage and car loans, there are also material desires that cannot be satisfied. If you can calm down, you can ask yourself in your heart, do you really need something, and whether it is for the sake of comparison, and you have overdrawn your energy, time and financial resources?

In this life, there are countless forks in the road, and countless choices will be made, and no matter which one you choose, you will inevitably lose another choiceWe don't have the ability to predict the next few decades, so we can only do our best and make choices that we don't regret in the present. Is the mountains red, the forests are dyed, take a step forward, or sink down, concentrate on learning Xi, no one can absolutely guarantee that the choice must be absolutely incorrect, but eat a trench, grow a wisdom, get a valuable experience that cannot be replicated, what do you think I said?
