Hong Haier is a demon boy, and a rich boy is a bodhisattva. Why are the two confused?

Hong Haier and the lucky boy will be confused, mainly because of the novel Journey to the West. Wu Cheng'en, the author, regards Hon Hai Er as the "predecessor" of an auspicious boy. After making mistakes in the early stage and repenting in the later stage, he finally becomes a boy around Guanyin in the later stage.

The story of Journey to the West is widely circulated among the people, so people naturally think that Hong Haier and the boy who is good at managing money are the same person. In fact, it is described in detail in real Buddhist scriptures, which is very different from novels.

According to the forty-five years of the old Hua Yan Jing, the boy of good fortune is the son of the old man in Fucheng. When he was born and conceived, all kinds of treasures naturally emerged, so he was called a blessing. Later, he was taught by Manjusri Bodhisattva and traveled all over the southern countries. First, I went to Coke to visit a merit monk, where I was taught samadhi. Then, I visited Bodhisattva, Bhikkhu, Bhikuni, Youpo Sai, Youpo Yi, boy, girl, field, girl, brahman, elder, doctor, captain, king, Buddha mother, princess, land god, tree god and so on. After listening to various teachings, I finally entered the Bodhisattva Dojo.

Hong Haier was born as a demon, and a lucky boy was born as an ordinary man. This shows the difference between them.

Red boy

Hong Haier is the son of Niu and Tiefan Princess, nicknamed the King of El Nino. Hong Haier is his real name. He used an eight-fire pointed gun, and his martial arts were extraordinary. He practiced in the Flame Mountain for 300 years and became a real fire. He spits fire in his mouth and smokes through his nose.

Hon Hai 'er, a demon-ridden, vicious person, hurt many creatures, ate a lot of human flesh and drank a lot of people's blood. He heard that eating the Tang Priest's flesh can make him live forever, so he took Tang Priest and the Monkey King to fight and pretended to be Guanyin Bodhisattva to cheat Pig Bajie.

Enlightenment: the Monkey King couldn't save Master and Pig, and it was difficult to surrender to Hong Haier, so he asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to surrender to Hong Haier. Fire is afraid of water, and Guanyin put out Samadhi's true fire with jade bottle nectar. Put five gold hoops (hands, feet and head) on Hong Haier and subdue Hong Haier. Guanyin knew that Hon Hai's ambition had not really been stopped, so he made him worship step by step and went straight to Luojiashan to accept Buddhism. After a while, Hon Hai finally returned to the right path. Fifty-three participants visited Guanyin Bodhisattva and became good children around Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Good luck boy

Extraordinary background: It is rumored that there is a richest man, Mr. Liu, who has a beloved son in his later years. As soon as the child was born, all kinds of treasures at home naturally emerged, so the soothsayer Brahman said, "Congratulations, sir, this treasure's great fortune has brought you a treasure, and it should be named Shancai." The name "good luck" spread like this. Shancai was born smart and considerate, and won the favor of the elderly, but the only thing that worried the elderly was that Shancai didn't like to hear the words of "getting rich".

Enlightenment Buddhism: Shancai should be a person who pursues the truth, collect all kinds of treasures of good law and support all those who love the truth. When he was a student, he often listened to philosophers' speeches. When he visited Manjusri Bodhisattva, a solemn building in the east of Fucheng, he discovered the true meaning of life.

Under the guidance of Bodhisattva, the Buddhist youth Shancai began his career of traveling and visiting. Shancai traveled to 1 10 cities and visited 53 good knowledge, so it was called "Shancai 53 Fingers".

In Buddhist scriptures, fifty-three participants refer to visiting fifty-three bodhisattvas, seeking blessings for different teaching methods, and finally realizing the true meaning of Buddhism and becoming a "blessed boy".

Although they are all called "blessed boys", their "disciples" are different, which can be said to be "different lives with the same name"
