It reflects the duality of western Buddhism. As we all know, The Journey to the West is a book in which Eastern Taoism and Western Buddhism contend. Although this book was written by four people, it actually represented the two largest forces in the world at that time. Many people think that Journey to the West is to praise Buddhism and suppress Taoism. In fact, this book is actually exposing the shameless means used by Buddhism to spread faith. So-called? Monks don't talk nonsense? It is the iconic mantra of Buddhist monks. Whenever others question them, they use this sentence to prevaricate, and then there is another set behind it. This phenomenon can be seen everywhere in life, which makes people tired of looking at their faces, so they simply expose this side of the Buddha in Journey to the West.

In life, people also educate students and children to be honest in words and deeds and to be honest in life. What does this have to do with what Buddhists say? Monks don't talk nonsense? It means the same thing. In life, even if people are educated by this idea, they will make mistakes and lie, but these people who have done something wrong either admit it neatly or justify what they have done wrong, and few people insist that they have not lied. But among Buddhist monks, they don't admit any mistakes or tell lies. , but always holding it? Monks don't talk nonsense? To block everyone's breath, as if the Buddhist scriptures stipulate that family members should not talk nonsense, they will certainly not talk nonsense, as if they have fully realized becoming a Buddha.

There are countless similar things here. Because of the rise of Buddhism, the internal congregation is too complicated, which causes people's dissatisfaction, but they dare not say anything, and it is inevitable that they will become angry from embarrassment. So in the Tang Dynasty, although Buddhism developed, there were more complaints and objections from the people. In the journey to the west, all these voices from the people were confirmed to the Buddha they believed in, which is actually a satire on Buddhism.

Generally speaking, although Buddhism developed in the Tang Dynasty, its disadvantages were also exposed, which caused many people's dissatisfaction and was satirized by people.
