Poems

Here is a poem that proves Zhu Bajie's consent to join Sanzang and Wukong in their journey to attain the scriptures:

• The Golden Vajra is stronger than Wood,
• The Mind Ape could bring the Wooden Dragon to submission.
• When Metal obeyed and Wood was tamed they were at one;
• When Wood was loving and Metal kind they worked together.
• One host and one guest with nothing to keep them apart,
• With the three in harmony they had a mysterious power.
• Nature and feelings both rejoiced as they joined in the Supreme Principle;
• They both promised without reservation to go to the West.
