Why is Zhu Bajie called Bajie?

A warning against gluttony. Because of his greedy mouth, Zhu Bajie encountered a lot of troubles and dangers on his way to seek scriptures. If Wukong hadn't stopped him in time, Zhu Bajie would have become a delicacy in the mouths of the monsters. His greediness is most vividly displayed in the section "Zhu Bajie Eats Watermelon". Later, Zhu Bajie gradually got rid of this problem, and was able to utter famous and highly conscious aphorisms such as "I was coaxed by a gentleman who bought sugar, but I still don't believe in sweet talk."

The second warning is to be lustful. In the early days of his journey to the West, Zhu Bajie was immediately distraught when he saw a beautiful woman. His eyes were filled with love, and he liked to approach her with a playful smile. Thanks to the sincere education of his immediate boss Tang Seng and the friendly teasing of his colleagues Sun Wukong and Wu Jing, his bad behavior has been restrained. Especially the careful enlightenment of the four Bodhisattvas made Zhu Bajie deeply aware of his stubborn disease and changed his ways. He was able to look at beautiful goblins with cold eyebrows and daggers at each other. As for Zhu Bajie still missing his former wife Miss Gao and his dream lover Chang'e later on, this is a normal emotional fluctuation and is not considered lustful.

The three precepts are greed for money. Whenever he encounters goblins blocking his way on the way to learn the scriptures, and even Sun Wukong has nothing to do, Zhu Bajie always weighs the collective belongings on Wu Jing's shoulders and leaves. Sun Wukong's beatings and insults, and Sha Monk's sarcastic condemnation, only gave him time and time again to give up the idea of ??dividing the collective property. The four precepts are to envy the virtuous. Although Bajie is incapable of exterminating monsters and demons, he is good at making reports in front of leaders. He likes to sow discord, play dirty tricks, and attack advanced workers such as Sun Wukong among his colleagues. Thanks to Tang Seng's knowledge and Wukong and Wujing's timely exposure and condemnation, Zhu Bajie's plot failed time and time again. Gradually, Zhu Bajie overcame this fatal flaw of being close to each other, and completely integrated himself into the team of learning lessons that help and love each other, and no longer alienated from each other.

The Five Precepts are fake. Zhu Bajie had made many ridiculous and deceptive tricks. In response to these bad behaviors, Wukong adopted the method of keeping a close eye on changes and tracking and sneak attacks to expose and correct them in time, thus providing a solid basis for Tang Seng's correct decision-making. It also forced Zhu Bajie to abandon the fake and follow the real, and never play fake again. Six precepts are laziness. During the days when Sun Wukong was driven away by Tang Seng, Zhu Bajie caused Tang Seng to mistakenly enter the monster's cave because of his snooze. Also, several times Tang Seng asked Zhu Bajie to go to Huazhai, but he hid in the woods and slept. Whenever Zhu Bajie is lazy, Wukong will either transform into a bug or something like that to tease him as a warning, or he will use his own body to endure hardships, thus motivating Zhu Bajie to work actively. As a result, Zhu Bajie was still frightened, and he neither dared nor felt embarrassed to be lazy again.

The Seven Precepts are to be afraid of difficulties. The road to seek the scriptures is full of mountains and rivers, and there are endless demons on the way. The difficulties are naturally endless. Whenever he encounters difficulties, Zhu Bajie easily retreats and always goes his own way. Tang Seng, Wukong, and Sha Seng all provided timely ideological guidance and encouragement, solved their problems at work, encouraged Bajie to increase his confidence, and willingly devoted themselves to the cause of Buddhist scriptures, completely eliminating the fear of difficulties. Bajie is greedy for merit. Zhu Bajie's kung fu is very popular. He rarely fights monsters when he encounters them. He usually runs away, and at most he fights and retreats. But he has always had the bad habit of being greedy for credit. He always records the achievements of others in his own credit book and asks for credit from his leaders. It was also with the patient help of Tang Seng, Wukong and Sha Seng that this shortcoming was overcome.
