How many species of Dapeng goldfinch are there in Buddhism?

According to the classic records of Tibetan Buddhism, Dapeng birds can be divided into three categories: human Dapeng birds, incarnation Dapeng birds and wisdom Dapeng birds.

The Dapeng bird in the world is the so-called golden winged bird, which is a kind of bird. This golden-winged bird sticks out its natural iron beak and claws, erects diamond horns, and has a glowing sphere on its head. Its golden eyes shine like the sun and the moon, and its wings fly in the air like swords. It dropped hot sand from the feather gap of a bronze sword, and has been living in trees on the offshore shore, feeding on dragons.

The embodiment of Dapeng bird is the Dapeng bird on the top of the angry statue. It is a kind of golden-winged bird, which is naturally transformed from anger-oriented self-esteem and great compassion and wonderful power to regulate fierce dragons and other sentient beings.

Dapeng bird of wisdom: In order to subdue the dragon, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas settled in the golden wings and turned them into Dapeng shapes, benefiting all beings. Before the infinite robbery, there were 1003 princes kneeling at the knees of a wheel king. These 1003 princes all showed extraordinary bodhicitta and then carefully served the Buddha. Among them, 1000 princes vowed to become buddhas for all sentient beings. At that time, one of the remaining three Wang Zizhong vowed: when my brothers became thousands of Buddhas, I would like to protect their teaching methods and surrender my demons; Another prince vowed to be the benefactor of Falun; And the youngest prince vowed to be the most violent person in the land of thousands of buddhas. Later, when the Thousand Buddhas were born, the prince who vowed to protect and teach the demons became the King Kong Hand Bodhisattva; The benefactor sworn as Falun is Brahma, the Lord of the three thousand worlds; The most vicious person who vows to transform the Thousand-Buddha Temple is the wisdom Dapeng bird. Therefore, the wisdom Dapeng bird is a bodhisattva who lives in the land and hopes to come again. Dragon is the fiercest among thousands of buddhas. The reason why the wisdom Dapeng bird can subdue the dragon is entirely because of its willingness in the past. It saved the dragon in thousands of Buddhist teachings, and became the Buddha in the upper bound when the sage robbed him. The Buddha's name was Dingji, and endless wisdom light sources came.
