Shakyamuni, the later Shakyamuni of the central sampa world, was in charge of the central sampa world, and he had two attendants, the "Great Wisdom" Manjushri Bodhisattva and the "Great Walk" Puxian Bodhisattva.

"Shakyamuni"

Shakyamuni Buddha [Crown Prince of Pure Rice, named Siddhartha, meaning "One of All Righteousness" (old translation "Yicheng"), full name Gautama Siddhartha]

Shakyamuni Buddha made this vow to manifest himself as a Buddha in the five turbid and evil worlds of the sampa world (see the Eight Phases of Enlightenment for details), and was the founder of Buddhism.

Shakyamuni means "Nengren", "Nengru", "Nengforbearance", "Nenglonely", etc., because his father is a Shakyamuni clan, after enlightenment, he is honored as Shakyamuni, which means "the saint of the Shakyamuni clan".

Shakyamuni Buddha (565 B.C. ~ 486 B.C.) was about the same time as Confucius in China. He was a prince of the Kapila kingdom (in present-day Nepal) in northern India and belonged to the Kshatriya caste. According to Buddhist scriptures, when Shakyamuni was 19 years old, he felt many troubles such as life, old age, illness, and death, and gave up his royal life to become a monk. At the age of 35, he became enlightened under the Bodhi tree and began Buddhism, and then began to preach in northern India and in the central Ganges valley. In the year 80, Nirvana was manifested in the city of Kushnaga.

The actual meaning of "Nyorai" is: to attain enlightenment by taking the path of truthfulness. "Such as" in the Buddhist scriptures is called the true truth, that is, the absolute truth, such as lai, means that the Buddha is a sage who has mastered the absolute truth and came to the world to speak the Dharma in order to benefit all sentient beings. For example, calling Shakyamuni Buddha or Shakyamuni Nyorai is the same. But it would be a mistake to call Shakyamuni the Buddha. Because the same name as Buddha is the common name of all Buddhas, it does not mean that it is a certain Buddha, just as calling a person is not a certain person.

Shakyamuni (565 BC to 486 BC), whose real name was Siddhartha, means "the one who has attained everything" (the old translation of "Yicheng"), and his surname was Gautama (Qu Tan). He was a prince of the Kapila kingdom (in present-day Nepal) in northern India and belonged to the Kshatriya caste.

Buddha is the abbreviation of Buddha, and Buddha means to realize that he has attained perfection or supreme enlightenment, and has practiced until all merits have been completed. Originally, there were 10,000 names for the Buddha, but later people became stupid, so they slowly abbreviated them to 10 names.

【Birth of the Prince】

Three thousand years ago, in ancient India, near the southern foothills of the snow-capped mountains, there was a very rich country called Kapila. The king's name is Tu Dana, and the Chinese translation is the king of pure rice. The queen's name was Mahamaya, and she was the eldest daughter of King Seonkaku of the Heavenly Arm City, across the river from the Acropolis of Kapila. According to the scriptures, before Shakyamuni Buddha was born, he lived in the Tushi Heavenly Courtyard for the sake of his life, and when the karma (time, place, country, family, parents) matured, he was born in the world, with Lady Maya as his mother. According to the customs of the time, Mrs. Maya returned to her mother's house to give birth, passing through the Lumbini Garden, which is now the temple of the village of Podoriya in southern Nepal, and gave birth to the prince Siddhartha. The classic records that on April 8, the prince was born from the right rib of Mrs. Maya, born under the worry-free tree in the Lumbini Garden, the prince can walk on the ground, walk 7 steps around, give birth to lotus flowers step by step, and raise his eyes to look around, self-proclaimed. "Heaven and earth, I am the only one." At this time, two dragons, one spit warm water and the other cold water, bathed him. This day is the Buddha Bathing Day.

Lady Maya died on the seventh day after the birth of the crown prince. As a child, the crown prince was raised by his aunt Popati. From an early age, he learned all the knowledge and skills that a royal family should possess at that time (i.e., the Five Mings, etc.). The prince is handsome, with 32 appearances, and 80 kinds of good things that no one can match. At the age of 17, she married her cousin Yasendhara as a concubine and gave birth to a son, Rahula.

【Becoming a monk】

The aristocratic life of the crown prince was affluent and comfortable. Volume 29 of the Zhong-A-Han Jing records his recollection that he had three palaces (Sanshi Palace) suitable for living in different seasons, including those that protect against the cold in winter, those that shelter from the heat in summer, and those that are moisture-proof in the rainy season; Richly dressed and richly fed; Singing and dancing in the court, enjoy the joy to the fullest. His father, King Johan, also had high hopes for him, hoping that he would inherit the throne and become the "Wheel Saint King" who unified the world. However, Prince Siddhartha became a monk at the age of 19. Because of the observation of the disparity between the rich and the poor in society, the inequality of the four castes, and the predation of the weak among sentient beings, he especially felt the persecution of birth, old age, sickness and death, and the impermanence of life, and the idea of cultivating the Tao. Finally gave up the throne and became a monk.

After becoming a monk, the prince first went to the ascetic forest of the Vagha, where there were many practitioners who tortured the flesh with all kinds of austerities in order to achieve liberation. The prince was not satisfied with this practice and left after staying for the night. When his father heard the news of his ordination, he was very saddened and sent people to persuade him to no avail, so he sent five people from among his relatives to accompany him, including Arrakun Chenru, Asashi, Bhatti, Shili Kaya, and Mahamankuli.

The prince crossed the Ganges River south to the capital of Magadha, the city of Rajassa, where he was met by King Pimpasara. After that, he sought out the followers of the Sologana sect, Arora Karama and Yuraka Ramazi, who lived in the mountains and forests near the royal house, and practiced meditation. However, their teachings, in Shakya's view, were still not the true path to liberation in life. So he went to the ascetic forest of Mount Gaja and meditated and practiced asceticism by the Nirenchan River. After 6 years, his body was thin and he still had not seen the Tao. Later, he realized that the real practice was the middle way of leaving the two sides of bitterness and happiness, so he gave up unnecessary austerities, walked across the Nilian Zen River, received the offering of chyle from the shepherdess, and regained his health. Came to the Bodhi tree of Mount Gaya, laid the Vajra seat with auspicious grass, sat upright in the east direction, and swore: "If I don't prove it today, the supreme Bodhi, I would rather break this body than never be able to do this!" He meditated under the tree for 49 days and overcame all kinds of "magical obstacles" inside and outside. Seeing oneself as he is, stopping all delusions and ignorance, and finally on the eighth day of the twelfth month, he saw the stars at night and attained "supreme enlightenment" by contemplating the Dharma of dependent origination. The world respectfully called him "Buddha" (meaning enlightened one), and the holy name "Shakyamuni" was 35 years old. Shakya is the name of its race, which means can; Muni means "benevolence", "Confucianism", "forbearance", and "silence". Together, Shakyamuni means "Nengren", "Nengru", "Nengren", "Nengshan", etc., which means "the saint of the Shakyamuni clan". When the Buddha attained enlightenment, he said, "Wonderful, wonderful! All beings on the earth have wisdom and virtue, but they cannot attain it with delusional attachment. "It is pointed out that all living beings have Buddha nature.

【Historical Materials】

Historical materials related to the life of Shakyamuni include cultural relics in addition to the records of Buddhist scriptures. In modern times, archaeologists and Buddhists in India and other countries have excavated some ruins and cultural relics of ancient buildings in the birth, enlightenment, first time, and Nirvana of the Buddha according to the records of Fa Xian's "Records of the Buddha Kingdom" and Xuanzang's "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" and the incomplete historical materials preserved in India, and have proved that the Buddha is a historical figure.

According to legend, Shakyamuni is a descendant of the famous royal family of the Vedic period in ancient India, King Yishima (King Yijiu), that is, the Chinese translation of "King of Sugarcane", the crown prince of the Kapilavi (Shobirava Valley) country, and belongs to the Kshatriya caste. Kapilawei was a small city inhabited by the Shakya tribe, located at the foot of the Himalayas, near Tirolak, in present-day southern Nepal and adjacent to India, and was then a vassal state of the Kusara kingdom. By the time Fa Xian traveled to India in the 4th century, the country was in decline. At the end of the 19th century, archaeologists unearthed a stone pot containing bones engraved with a Brahma riddle script popular in the centuries BC, meaning the bones of the Buddha worshipped by the Shakyas. In addition, the discovery of stone carvings built by Emperor Ashoka during his visit to Kapilawei has confirmed its approximate geographical location, and the Nepalese government has been conducting archaeological excavations since then.

As for the birth year of Shakyamuni, since there is no clear record in the ancient Indian classics, the transmission and scholars of various countries generally verify it from the historical books of Buddhism itself, and extrapolate from the year of death. Therefore, there are 60 different theories. There is a gap of hundreds of years between the earliest and the latest. Sri Lanka, India, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and other southern Buddhist countries, it is generally believed that Shakyamuni was born in 624 BC and died in 544 BC, and on this basis, a grand event was held in 1956~1957 to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of Shakyamuni's Nirvana. According to the historical materials of the Southern Tradition, Western scholars have 489, 487, 486, 484, 483, 482, 478, and 477 BC about the era of the Buddha's destruction. According to the historical materials of the Northern Legend, Japan's Ui Hiroshi traces 116 years from 271 BC, the year of Ashoka's accession, and is presumed to have been born in 466 BC and died in 386 BC. According to the year of Ashoka's accession to the throne of Emperor Ashoka in 286 BC, it is presumed that the year of birth and death of the Buddha is 463~383 BC. According to the "Records of the Sacred Points" handed down by the teachers of the Nanqi Sangha Bhadra translated by the Nanqi Sangha Bhadra, that is, in the year of Shakyamuni's death, Upa Li gathered the Vinaya, and on the 15th day of the seventh month of the same year, he wrote down a point at the end of the book, and added a little bit every year thereafter, until the seventh year of the Yongming Dynasty of the Southern Qi Dynasty (489), a total of 975 points. From this, Shakyamuni was born in 565 BC and died in 486 BC, seven years before Confucius. This theory has also been adopted by Buddhist scholars in Japan, India, and other countries. The Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism in China is also said to have been born in 1041 BC and died in 961 BC.

As it is, it is the honorific title of the Buddha in Buddhism, which means true knowledge.

In "Journey to the West", it is the Buddha of the Western Da Lei Yin Temple, located in Lingshan.
