"No one teaches me!!" he shouted during his entrapment.


The Monkey God was released 500 years later by a mortal monk who later becomes his teacher and in his journey to the west finally learned to be more patient and humbly listen when someone showed him the "path". And it is in his journey (thru experience) that teaches him how to gauge which is the "correct path" to take whenever he was caught in a cross road junction (thats when many people or situation shows him different paths). It is his own action and decision that finally leads him to the paths he is destined to walk.

Just a thought...
I like the monkey king photo u post. One thg comes to mind when i read this post ,it mirrored the real life we're in. Reflecting most who choose to read with no understanding of wat they're reading.Worse are those who don't even bother to read the last few pages. Sm even blaming those who don't guide like the monkey king when the guides were all so close.

Thx for yr Btm guide. It helps a big deal in this thread,at least for me.
