《西游记》中有个美丽的错误,是对成佛的理解。唐僧最终成佛似乎还能说得过去,他的徒弟们成佛成圣就说不通了。如果仅凭辉煌的勋业就可以超凡入圣,佛未免也太容易成了,六家七宗都不必存在了。事实上,这也只是佛教在与儒道融合之后,逐渐变质,最终诞生了这奇怪的东西。孙悟空成的并非可以普度众生的佛,而是人们心目中可以救人于危难的英雄。 A beautiful mistake in Journey to the West is an understanding of Buddhahood. It seems that Tang’s eventually becoming a Buddha can still be plausible. His disciples cannot make it to a Buddha. If only the glorious Xunye can make extraordinary entrances, the Buddha is too easy to become, and none of the six families need to exist. In fact, it was only after Buddhism merged with Confucianism and Buddhism that Buddhism gradually deteriorated. Eventually this strange thing was born. The Monkey King does not have the ability to popularize the Buddha of all sentient beings, but is a hero who can save people in distress.
