Conflicts/Battles

Overall in this arc, Zhu Bajie would battle it out against Sun Wukong atop a mountain slope at the time of night - - a neighboring mountain of Gao Village. After this battle rages on for many days and there are varied retreats, Wukong eventually talks with the Bodhisattva Guanyin about this issue. After Wukong tells Zhu Bajie what she had told him, Pig joins Sanzang and Wukong as promised to the compassionate Guanyin. Wukong doesn't trust Pig easily and pulls him by the hair saying "even a good pig must be handled roughly."

Famous quotes containing the words conflicts and/or battles:

    “I would rather be the child of a mother who has all the inner conflicts of the human being than be mothered by someone for whom all is easy and smooth, who knows all the answers, and is a stranger to doubt.”
    —D.W. Winnicott (20th century)

    “To make life more bearable and pleasant for everybody, choose the issues that are significant enough to fight over, and ignore or use distraction for those you can let slide that day. Picking your battles will eliminate a number of conflicts, and yet will still leave you feeling in control.”
    —Lawrence Balter (20th century)
