However, Uchiha Shin had some doubts about Buddha's approach. Within the Buddhist sect, there were Lesser Vehicle teachings and Greater Vehicle teachings.
Previously, these teachings had not been divided, but as they gradually developed, the Buddhist teachings split into these two branches.
Yet Buddha had shelved the Greater Vehicle teachings and had everyone in the Buddhist sect practice the Lesser Vehicle teachings.
Why was that? Could it be that the Buddhist sect did not wish to save all living beings?
That seemed somewhat improper. After all, if a sect wished to survive, it naturally needed people to support it. If there were no people within the sect, could it still be called a sect?
Although the Lesser Vehicle teachings also had methods for saving people, such teachings could only save oneself and could not save others universally.
The conflict between Peacock Great Bright King and Buddha was the conflict between the Greater Vehicle and Lesser Vehicle teachings.
Uchiha Shin had also asked Great Roc, but Great Roc did not know either.
It seemed that very few people knew the reason. Even Peacock Great Bright King might not know.
That day, the three of them were playing when Golden Cicada came to find them.
"Others come to Spirit Mountain hoping to hear Buddha preach, receive Buddha's protection, and learn of the Great Dao. You few, on the other hand, spend every day here in carefree leisure." Golden Cicada smiled and shook his head.
Uchiha Shin said, "Doesn't Buddhism emphasize reaching ultimate bliss? Reaching ultimate bliss means being happy and joyful, free from the Three Calamities, six hardships, and seven sufferings. The three of us are quite happy already."
Golden Cicada smiled. "Junior Brother, stop being naughty. You and Junior Brother Goku should come with me. Buddha merely wishes to see you."
