第一篇：西游記 英文簡介

Journey to the west is a historic Chinese novel that is considered one of the four classics from the Ming Dynasty.These novels along with the golden lotus water margins as well as the romances of the three kingdoms have won popular acclaim from generation to generation.Journey to the west is a combination of myth parable and comedy.It is a story about a Buddhist monk and bunch of animals with human characteristic.The animals actually in the story are a very fairy tale type of mood and they traveled west to India to find Buddhist scriptures.The animals themselves are celestial being in mortal forms and they have magical powers that protect them from the goblins and the evil spirits.Author Wu Cheng-en writings create an imaginary world that creates a life like with the absurd giving us a glance of the different sides of human nature.Monkey was created out of a rock.He not only has the sharp wit and an unruly nature of a monkey but also extra ordinary powers that he uses to overcome demons and monsters.Pig sets off his pig like clumsiness with the disposition that is the epitome of honesty and directness.He is always making a mess out of things and generating a lot of humor in the process.Before the monk can find the scriptures he must surmounts 81 obstacles including overcoming such supernatural beings as cow demon the spider beast and a living skeleton.These obstacles symbolize the difficulties and challenges that people meet in the course of ideals.The character is the main reason that journey to the west keeps reader in thrall.The book gets more then and uproars comedy.It gives us readers an unforgivable insight into life itself.As for the historical record of journey to the west let's go back to the Tang dynasty.History actually recalls the Buddhist monk master Shan-chang or master Xuan Zhuang who crossed he mighty desert to reach the India continent during the Tang dynasty.19 years later he came back to china with over 600 Buddhist scriptures.So the factual basis of journey to the west was born.However master Xuan Zhuang actually was a little bit different from master san tong.Who was actually a fictional character created by the author? In a novel, Tang Shan-chang maybe a monk on a daring mission to find Buddha scriptures.But he is also a faint-hearted hypocrite who lacks transcendent insight and lives life in pectoral fear.He is kind and compassionate but his inability to distinguish between true and false hood make him all to susceptible to pig's effort to sew this court.The result is that he wrongly distresses monkey who can see through the bio schemes of evil spirits and demons.But of course when he has fallow blindly in the trap of some fin or other it is always monkey that fall back on for help.Actually the character of the monk happens to be quite similar to the mythical scholar although he is an idealist at heart he is as weak as a kitten and just sets there helplessly for rescue when he gets into a predicament.The author is perhaps making a sly jab at the incompetent rulers of his time.But if Tang Shan-chang is evaluated purely from his viewpoint of religion or spiritual attainment he appears as not a saintly monk but rather an ordinary man.So monkey is the real hero in journey to the west.Monkey is created from a rock on enchanted mountain and because of his courage and insight is later anointed by his peers as king.But one day in a flash of enlightenment, this glorious monkey king see that life is a very temporary thing and that the delights of his timely existence in the area mountain tree cannot go on forever.Amazingly he gives it all up to find a master who can guide him on to the path of spiritual motivation.Monkey is gifted with intelligence and agility both mentally and physically.So he puts his talents to use by mastering his skills of wizardry to the point of where he can transform himself 72 times in a blink of an eye.He has a magic wan that can shrink smaller the pen or expand till it is like a club of bronze and a magic cloud that can take him up to the heavens or down to the bales of the earth.The monkey still retains his mischievous and playful temperament of his fellow apes.His intelligence and child like naughtiness are reviled when he does things like deliberately sending pig to scan the near by mountain and then transforming himself into an insect to keep an eye on his indolent companion.Fearing nothing the monkey would play in the palace of the sea god in heaven or in Hades itself.He even makes a bet with Buddha.His is a rebellious character that will just not bow to established rules.Full of life and filled with spirit as well as being sincere and optimistic in nature, he is not bothered by suffering and is always ready to face up to new challenges.This kind of wiliness to forge ahead maybe the stuff those heroes are made out of.But it carries with it a weakness of arrogance impulsiveness and a desire to excel over others.Pig fills a role that symbolizes the desire to comfort and pleasure.He to has magical powers but it is just not the same as monkey.Who makes him seem naive and clumsy by comparison monkey just love to tease him so pig does his level best to be a thorn in monkeys side by telling lies about him to tong song jon.Pig is a lazy gluttonous that needs his material comforts when it comes to trouble he just can't hold his side up so is always first to call on for help.During their journey he nearly cast his companion in his own spiritual cultivation inside.When he falls for enticement of beautiful women and riches.But if finally turns out to be all work of Buddha salvia that has come to test him.Yet thanks to the author pig ludicrous behavior brings an ironic smile to the readers face rather then a frown of disapproval because while pig makes a laughing stock of him self-the reader is reminded of the covetous raspy nature that empathy the human condition.Another character that appears quite less frequently is friar san when he does take the stage.His quite resolute and down to nature are readily apparent.Actually In journey of the west is purification of the mind so that the entire expedition to find Buddha scriptures is actually a way of achieving spiritual goodness.So in this play three arrogant weakness laziness even ignorance they are all weakness of human nature that requires spiritual correction.However honesty goodness and courage are all our friends in the depths of our soul.And this way the journey to the west the various characters in battle with evil and they teach us that in human life it is possible and temper ourselves to achieve ideals and goodness.

第二篇：西游記簡介

西游記簡介

中國古典四大名著之一，是最優(yōu)秀的神話小說，也是一部群眾創(chuàng)作和文人創(chuàng)作相結合的作品。小說以整整七回的“大鬧天宮”故事開始，把孫悟空的形象提到全書首要的地位。第八至十二回寫如來說法，觀音訪僧，魏徵斬龍，唐僧出世等故事，交待取經(jīng)的緣起。從十四回到全書結束，寫孫悟空被迫皈依佛教，保護唐《西游記》內(nèi)容簡介

《西游記》產(chǎn)生于十六世紀的中國明朝嘉靖公元 1522 —1566)時期,距今已四百多年了.作者吳承恩,字汝忠,號射陽居士 ,《西游記》是吳承恩中年時期寫成初稿,后來經(jīng)過潤飾而成的.他在前代多年積累下來并在民間流傳的有關唐僧取經(jīng)的文學作品和故事的基礎上進行藝術再創(chuàng)造,并且把原來的以唐僧取經(jīng)為主的故事,改為孫悟空為主的戰(zhàn)天斗地史.孫悟空是全書中最光輝的形象.“ 大鬧天宮”突出他熱愛自由,勇于反抗的精神“西天取經(jīng)”表現(xiàn)他見惡必除,除惡必盡的精神.孫悟空大鬧天宮失敗后,經(jīng)過五行山下五百年的鎮(zhèn)壓,被唐僧放出,同往西天.他已不再是一個叛逆者的形象,而是一個頭戴緊箍,身穿虎皮裙,專為人間解除魔難的英雄.在重重困難之前頑強不屈,隨機應機,就是鎮(zhèn)魔者孫悟空的主要特征.《西游記》描寫的幻想世界和神話人物,大都有現(xiàn)實生活作基礎,同時在神奇的形態(tài)下體現(xiàn)了作家與人民的某些美好愿望.八十一難,七十二變,各種神魔的本領都充滿幻想色彩;五花八門,奇光異彩的寶貝,顯然是人們?yōu)榱苏鞣匀换驊?zhàn)勝敵人才假想出來的.《西游記》 構成了浪漫主義的基本藝術特征.《西游記》把善意的嘲笑,辛辣的諷刺和嚴峻的批判藝術地結合起來,使不少章回妙趣橫生,完滿地表達了深刻的思想內(nèi)容和作者的鮮明愛憎.九九八十一難所包含的四十一個小故事也都通過僧徒,神佛,妖魔間的錯綜關系表現(xiàn)出來,一波未平一波又起.在這無數(shù)充滿斗爭的幻想情節(jié)中,意味深長地寄寓了廣大人民反抗惡勢力,要求戰(zhàn)勝自然,困難的樂觀精神,曲折地反映了封建時代的社會現(xiàn)實僧取經(jīng)，在八戒、沙僧協(xié)助下，一路斬妖除魔，到西天成了“正果”。

內(nèi)容梗概

《紅樓夢》是以賈、史、王、薛四大家族為背景，故事情節(jié)由主次兩條矛盾線索構成的。

一條是以賈寶玉、林黛玉的愛情為中心，貫穿全書的全線。它以賈、林爭取愛情自由、婚姻自主和個性解放的思想同封建制度、封建禮教之間的矛盾為線索，以賈、林最后對封建制度和封建禮教的徹底背叛和愛情的悲劇結局而告終。

這條線索從第三、四兩回，林黛玉和薛寶釵接踵來到賈府，與寶玉的愛情糾葛開始形成，并在矛盾中向前開展。直到第九十七、九十八兩回，黛玉和寶釵在“哀”“樂”截然不同，“悲”“歡”強烈對比之下，一個“魂歸離恨天”，一個“出閨成大禮”，終成悲劇結局，是主線的高潮，也是實現(xiàn)全書主題的集中所在。后二十一回，則是在高潮的余波中，情節(jié)的下降、結尾階段。在這個階段里，賈家被抄而又贏得一個回光反照的局面。最后寶玉遁入空門，全書結束。

從這條主線看，造成賈、林愛情悲劇的根本原因是：在封建制度與禮教的桎梏下，青年男女愛情、婚姻不能自主，而取決于封建家長的意愿。具體地說，賈、林的愛情、婚姻不取決于他們自己的意志，而由以賈母為代表的榮府當權派們決定，而賈母又以封建的階級利益做點為基點，她對林黛玉的“疼”，僅僅是從“骨血”關系出發(fā)，并不喜愛她不符封建道德規(guī)范要求的“孤高自許”、“目下無塵”和“小性兒”；而對薛寶釵的“愛”，則是以她“端方”的封建品格為基點，尤其是適應封建道德要求的“行為豁達，隨分從時”的性格。由此終于選中了薛寶釵而棄置了林黛玉。其結果是，同時釀成3個人的悲劇：林黛玉，為愛情熬盡最后一滴眼淚，含恨而死；賈寶玉，終于離棄“溫柔富貴之鄉(xiāng)”而遁入了空門；薛寶釵，雖成了榮府的“二奶奶”，卻沒有真正贏得愛情，陪伴她提終生的凄涼孤苦。她和林黛玉，只不過是同一條封建毒草藤上兩顆屬性不同的苦瓜而已。

這條主線揭示了封建制度、封建禮教的罪惡；也歌頌了青年男女對封建制度的禮教的叛逆精神。

《紅樓夢》的另一條線索賠是以寧、榮二府及其社會關系為中心，由一些彼此獨立而又互相關聯(lián)的情節(jié)組成的副線。它以封建的階級壓迫，等級制度以及封建遺族寄生腐朽，荒淫糜爛的生活所造成的封建制度自身的矛盾為線索，它以賈府及其親族的所造成的封建制度自身的矛盾為線索，它以賈府及其親族的一一衰敗為結局，不僅構成主線的社會背景，并與主線殊途同歸，提示和鞭笞了封建制度的罪惡

第三篇：西游記英文讀后感

My impression on reading Journey to the West

Jouney to the West is a historic Chinese novel that is considered one of the 4 classics from the Ming Dynasty.These novels along with Outlaws of the Marsh, A Dream in Red Mansion as well as Three Kindoms have won popular acclaim from generation to generation.Jouney to the West is actually a combination of myth , parable and comedy.It is filled with imagination and have enjoyed a great and immensepopularity among the people in China for over 400 years on account of its fresh and convoluted plots , distinctive and life-like characters, profound and incisive ideological content and life-hearted style.It is based on a story about a Buddhist monk and a bunch of animals with human characteristic(which are his 3 disciples ,the irrevent and capable Monkey, greedy Pig, and Friar Sand).The animals in the story are actually of a very fairy tale type of mood and they traveled west to India to find Buddhist scriptures.The animals themselves are celestial being in mortal forms and they have magical powers that protect them from the goblins and the evil spirits.Monkey was created out of a rock.He not only has the sharp wit and an unruly nature of a monkey but also extra ordinary powers that he uses to overcome demons and monsters.Monkey is also gifted with intelligence and agility both mentally and physically.So he puts his talents to use by mastering his skills of wizardry to the point of where he can transform himself 72 times in a blink of an eye.He has a magic wand that can shrink smaller than a pen or expand till it is like a club of bronze and a magic cloud that can take him up to the heavens or down to the bales of the earth.Full of life and filled with spirit as well as being sincere and optimistic in nature, he is not bothered by suffering and is always ready to face up to new challenges.Pig sets off his pig like clumsiness with the disposition that is the epitome of honesty and directness.He is always making a mess out of things and generating a lot of humor in the process.Pig fills a role that symbolizes the desire to comfort and pleasure.He too has magical powers but it is just not the same as monkey , who

makes him seem naive and clumsy by comparison.Monkey just love to tease him , so pig does all his best to be a thorn in monkey’s side by telling lies about him to Tang Priest.Another character that appears quite less frequently is Friar Sand.He is quite resolute and his down-to-earth nature is readily apparent.In Jouney to the West, a total of 87 chapters are dedicated to the story of the Tang Priest ,Xuang Zang’s quest for the Buddhist scriptures.In the course of their journey , they brave a series of dangers and vanquish devils and monsters.The road to the Western Paradise is fraught with danger , whether in mountains and forests or in villages and towns.Before the monk can find the scriptures he must surmount 81 obstacles.Demons of all descriptions like the ferocious Red Boy, the scorpion sipirt

of Pipa Cave and spiderwomen ,etc.try to bar their way ,even to the extent of killing and eating XuangZang.Some of these ghostly opponents appear openly hostile ,while others are cunningly disguised.Some wield power over kingdoms or feign to officials carrying out their lawful duties.Monkey plays a central role in every battle with the monsters ,not only contending with them face to face , but also helping his

companions overcome the obstacles and restraints that originate within themselves.After overcoming all kinds of evil and devious enemies , with Monkey as the backbone of the company ,the travelers finally reach the Western Paradise and accomplish their sacred mission of taking back the scriptures.Inthis so-called “ stories of the 81 obstacles” which symbolize the difficulties and challenges that people meet in the course of pursuing their ideals , the staunch spirit and character of the 4 companions to battle all enemies and overcome all hurdles in order to attain their goal is manifested very clearly and as much it is a vivid portrayal of the spirit and character of the Chinese nation.With supernatural beings as its protagonists ,Journey to the West creates a world full of fantasy and illusion.But this fantasy world reflects various kinds of contradictions in the society of Wu Chen’en’s time.The characters of the demons are generalizations and sublimations of the characters of ordinary mortals.Fantasy and reality reach a high level of synthesis in Jouney to the West.Humor is a major characteristic of the style of Jouney to the West.Money is the supreme comic figure in this classical Chinese novel.His humor springs from his optimistic self-confidence and his sharp ability to perceive people’s true natures ,as well as his tolerance of others’ weaknesses and his hatred of evil.The humor in this novel is also manisfested in certain plots & subplots of the nature of comedies.Pig’s clumsy actions and speech are invariably hilarious ,but the laughter he elicits is tolerant but sad at the same time.This is because the weaknesses in Pig’s character are not unique or accidental ,they ’re common traits of the Chinese character.The author’s humor is built up on a base of profound knowledge of human society and a high degree of psychological penetration.Actually Journey to the west is purification of the mind in that the entire expedition to find Buddhist scriptures is actually a way of achieving spiritual

goodness.So in this play three weaknesses arrogance, laziness, even ignorance, they are all weakness of human nature that requires spiritual correction.However

honesty ,goodness ,and courage are all our friends in the depths of our soul.And this way the Journey to the westteach us that in human life it is possible to temper ourselves to achieve ideals and goodness.

第五篇：西游記名著簡介

名著簡介

《西游記》為明代小說家吳承恩所著，取材于《大唐西域記》和民間傳說、元雜劇。宋代《大唐三藏取經(jīng)詩話》（本名《大唐三藏取經(jīng)記》）是西游記故事見于說話文字的最早雛形，其中，唐僧就是以玄奘法師為原型的。

作為中國古代第一部浪漫主義長篇神魔小說，該書深刻地描繪了當時的社會現(xiàn)實，是魔幻現(xiàn)實主義的開創(chuàng)作品。先寫了孫悟空出世，然后遇見了唐僧、豬八戒和沙和尚三人，但還是主要描寫了孫悟空、豬八戒、沙和尚三人保護唐僧西行取經(jīng)，唐僧從投胎到取經(jīng)受了九九八十一難，一路降妖伏魔，九九歸一，終于到達西天見到如來佛祖，最終五圣成真。

來點常識

1、作者：吳承恩，明代小說家。字汝忠，號射陽山人。淮安陽山（今江蘇淮安人。

2、體裁：長篇神話小說

3、主要內(nèi)容：本書主要描述了孫悟空大鬧天宮，唐僧出世和師徒四人西天取經(jīng)等故事，贊揚了以孫悟空為主的師徒四人不畏艱險、百折不撓的可貴精神。由孫悟空大鬧天宮、唐僧出世、孫悟空、豬八戒、沙僧一起保護唐僧取經(jīng)等三大部分組成。一路上歷盡千辛萬苦，戰(zhàn)勝形形色色的妖魔鬼怪，經(jīng)過九九八十一難，功成圓滿，終成正果

4、精彩情節(jié)：大鬧天宮、三打白骨精、車遲國斗法、女兒國遇難、真假美猴王、智取紅孩兒、三調(diào)芭蕉扇、四圣試禪心等。

5、內(nèi)容：由三大部分組成——孫悟空大鬧天宮、唐僧出世、唐僧和孫悟空師徒四人西天取經(jīng)。

6、藝術特色：

①善于說故事，可讀性強。

②善于塑造人物，形象十分鮮明。③充滿天馬行空的想象和大膽奇特的夸張。

《西游記》通過神話的形式，曲折地反映出現(xiàn)實的社會矛盾，表現(xiàn)了人民群眾懲惡揚善的愿望和要求。在孫悟空身上集中反映了人民群眾反抗專制壓迫、戰(zhàn)勝黑暗勢力和征服自然的強烈愿望，是正義的化身。孫悟空不畏強暴、敢于斗爭的精神，具有深刻的社會意義，作為孫悟空對立面的神佛世界和妖魔鬼怪，象征著黑暗勢力。這一正一反，既突出了孫悟空的英雄形象，又突出了斬妖降魔的內(nèi)容，從而使貫穿全書的取經(jīng)的目的退居次要地位。在吳承恩筆下，取經(jīng)一事的宗教意義已大大淡化，僅僅具有象征意義。它給讀者的啟示在于：為了實現(xiàn)某一崇高的目的，人們必須艱苦奮斗，長期堅持，勇敢地戰(zhàn)勝一切敵人。

1、孫悟空（行者）：

①號稱：美猴王和齊天大圣。②出世：仙石孕育而生。③性格：桀驁不馴、忠心耿耿、聰明幽默、愛憎分明、勇敢機智，好勇斗勝，重視承諾，嫉惡如仇，不怕困難，堅韌不拔，英勇無畏。

④本領：手持一根一萬三千五百斤，能任意伸縮的金箍棒；能耍七十二變；一個筋斗能翻十萬八千里；在太上老君的煉丹爐里煉了四十九天不死，反而煉出一雙火眼金睛，能識破世間一切妖魔鬼怪；偷吃無數(shù)蟠桃和各種仙丹練就而成金剛不壞之身。

⑤典型情節(jié)：大鬧天宮、三打白骨精、真假美猴王、智取紅孩兒、三借芭蕉扇、車遲國斗法。

一路上歷經(jīng)九九八十一難，終成大果，被釋迦如來封為“斗戰(zhàn)勝佛”。孫悟空那種不畏艱辛困苦的精神貫穿取經(jīng)始末。

孫悟空被壓在五行山下五百年后，被唐僧所救，拜其為師，踏上西天取經(jīng)之路：兩界山除六意，鷹愁澗收玉龍為唐僧坐騎，黑風山斗熊羆，取回被偷袈裟，又先后在高老莊和流沙河收豬剛鬣和沙悟凈為師弟，于黃風嶺苦戰(zhàn)黃風怪，在五莊觀為救活人參果樹。白虎嶺三打白骨夫人，卻被唐僧誤會趕走。后為了救被變成老虎的唐僧，巧戰(zhàn)黃袍怪。平頂山斗智斗勇，降服金銀角。在烏雞國救活被害死三年的國王，在枯松澗大戰(zhàn)紅孩兒，車遲國解救被迫害眾僧。又在通天河、金兜山、毒敵山與靈感大王、兕大王、蝎子精多方激戰(zhàn)。誅除二心，三調(diào)芭蕉扇，蕩除碧波潭，誤入小雷音寺，七絕山除紅蟒精，朱紫國三折肱，盤絲洞掃七妖，黃花觀斗蜈蚣精，獅駝嶺會戰(zhàn)三魔，比丘國救眾小孩，無底洞尋師，隱霧山誅豹精，鳳仙郡求雨，玉華州收徒，竹節(jié)山大戰(zhàn)眾獅精，青龍山力斗三犀，天竺國擒玉兔，助寇洪還魂。

2、唐僧（玄奘）：

①姓名：俗姓陳，小名江流兒，法號玄奘，號三藏，被唐太宗賜姓為唐。

②身世： 如來佛祖第二弟子金蟬長老投胎。由于父母凄慘、離奇的經(jīng)歷，自幼在寺廟中出家、長大，在化生寺出家，最終遷移到京城的著名寺院中落戶、修行。

③性格：勤敏好學，意志堅定，勇往直前、心地善良、正直不阿、毫無主見、迂腐頑固，膽小懦弱，無智無能，是非不分，耳根子軟。

④典型情節(jié)：三打白骨精；四圣試禪心；女兒國遇難。唐僧是如來佛祖的弟子金蟬子轉(zhuǎn)世投胎作狀元陳光蕊之子，出家后法名玄奘，修成正果后被封為旃檀功德佛。

唐僧是一個帶有濃厚封建士人氣質(zhì)的人物，恪守宗教信條和封建禮教，乃至迂腐頑固，而又膽小懦弱，而且常常誤信讒言，顛倒是非，無理責罵和殘忍地處罰為取經(jīng)建立了巨大功勛的孫悟空。但同時也是一個信仰堅定的人，在取經(jīng)的路上，經(jīng)歷了九九八十一難，其中絕大多是對唐僧的考驗，唐僧從來沒有動搖過。

兩界山中救石猴，鷹愁澗駕白龍，高老莊中收八戒，四圣試禪心，女兒國情深，女妖誘惑，男怪捆綁蒸煮，唐僧始終沒有動搖過取經(jīng)的決心，雖然在三打白骨精中，對孫悟空多番誤會，但也從另一個層面顯示出唐僧的慈悲為懷，總是聽信豬八戒的讒言，但是意識到自己的錯誤后，也同樣能夠勇于認錯。

唐僧由一個被歌頌的人物，變成一個被諷刺嘲笑的對象，作者對他是批評多于肯定。這一點是《西游記》和傳統(tǒng)的取經(jīng)故事一個很大不同之處。

3、豬八戒（悟能）： ①身世：原是仙界天蓬元帥，因醉調(diào)嫦娥，被貶下凡，投錯了胎，長成一副長嘴大耳、呆頭呆臉的模樣。

②性格：貪吃好色，見識短淺、搬弄是非，耍小聰明、膽小怕事、吃苦耐勞、忠勇善良、知錯就改、淳樸憨厚。③兵器：九齒釘耙

④典型情節(jié)：四圣試禪心，三打白骨精，偷吃人參果

豬八戒又叫悟能，原為管理天河水兵的天蓬元帥，獲罪下凡，誤投豬胎，曾占云棧洞為妖，后經(jīng)菩薩點化，保唐僧取經(jīng)，得成正果，封為凈壇使者。

豬八戒本是仙界的天蓬元帥，主管天河。后因醉酒調(diào)戲嫦娥，被貶下凡，到人間投胎，卻錯投豬胎，嘴臉與豬相似。曾占福陵山云棧洞為妖。自稱“豬剛鬣”。唐僧西去取經(jīng)路過高老莊，在云棧洞與孫悟空大戰(zhàn)，聽說唐僧之名，前去拜見。被唐僧收為二徒弟后，為讓其繼續(xù)戒五葷三厭，唐僧給他起了個別名叫“八戒”。在去西天取經(jīng)途中，他總是揮舞釘耙，與妖魔勇猛戰(zhàn)斗，是孫悟空的得力助手。而且他能夠知錯改錯，淳樸憨厚。但他好吃懶做，見識短淺，一遇困難就嚷嚷著要散伙，還經(jīng)常搬弄是非、耍小聰明、說謊，又愛占小便宜，貪戀女色，因此常常當眾出丑，成為惹人發(fā)笑的喜劇形象。

4、沙和尚（悟凈）

①身世：原是天庭中的卷簾大將，因失手打碎琉璃盞被貶下凡，盤踞在流沙河 ,興風作浪，危害一方。唐僧途徑流沙河時收為徒弟。②性格：正直無私，任勞任怨，忠心不二，踏踏實實，謹守本分 ③兵器：降妖寶杖

④典型情節(jié)：大戰(zhàn)流沙河

沙僧法號悟凈，原為天宮中的卷簾大將，被貶下界，在流沙河為妖，后保唐僧取經(jīng)，經(jīng)過九九八十一難后，功德圓滿，封為金身羅漢。沙悟凈，又叫沙僧、沙和尚，原為天宮玉皇大帝的卷簾大將，因打破了琉璃盞，觸犯天條，被貶出天界，在人間流沙河興風作浪，危害一方，專吃過路人。后經(jīng)觀音點化，賜法號悟凈，一心歸佛，同八戒、悟空一同保護唐僧西天拜佛求取真經(jīng)。沙僧外貌丑惡，但個性憨厚，忠心耿耿。他不像孫悟空那么叛逆，也不像豬八戒那樣好吃懶惰、貪戀女色，自他放棄妖怪的身份起，他就一心跟著唐僧，正直無私，任勞任怨，謹守佛門戒律，踏踏實實，謹守本分，最終功德圓滿，被如來佛祖封為南無金身羅漢。
