Stubbornness

"That feeling gives me insomnia. I want to know that I truly I understood. Can you repeat what you said?"

Fangzheng was stunned. He never expected Monkey to chase after him once he gained some insights from listening to his recital. The thought of scripture spreading across species fascinated Fangzheng. Back when he delivered Lotus Flower Conveyance, he realized that true Buddhist Dharma was not beholden to language. Instead, it was communication at the spiritual level. The sounds he produced were not necessarily a language. It was merely a way of communication.

Fangzheng had been working hard and had been studying the scriptures recently so he learned many new things.

Back when Patriarch Bodhidharma came from the West, he was unable to spread the Dharma because of the language mismatch.
