Journey to the West

If you enter Journey to the West, you will get two financially successful films that were made several years after this one. Those films are junk; Hollywood-imitation garbage by talentless Chinese producers who care nothing about the real history and culture of China. They are out to just make a buck by exploiting perhaps one of the most courageous Buddhist practitioners in Chinese history. The Upanishads were actually the foundation of these sutras, but that small fact is basically irrelevant; the film is about faith, and the strength it gives the true believer. I am not a Buddhist or a religious individual (Philosophical Taoist), but I value the actions of those who live out the true values of their various religions by performing acts of kindness and humanity. This is one of those films. Remember, see the 1986 version of the film.
