Who is the three-car monk in history?
The three-car monk in history refers to master peek. Kui Ji (632 -682), born in Chang 'an (now Xi 'an, Shaanxi Province), was a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty and the founder of only knowing Sect. The common surname is Wei Chi, the word Hongdao, also known as Ji Ling, Ji Cheng, Mahayana, Jishi, or for short, Jiji, and the dharma name is Kui Ji, so it is respectfully called "Master Ci 'en".

He looks tall and smart. He became a monk at the age of seventeen and became a disciple of Xuanzang. He entered Hongfu Temple and then went to Jionji, where he studied Sanskrit and Buddhist scriptures from Xuanzang. Or Kui Ji refused Xuanzang's orders from the beginning and wanted the world constantly. There are three cars driving around him. The front car carries the scriptures, the middle car rides by itself, and the back car carries prostitutes, maids and food, so it is called the "three-car mage".

Main theory:

Kui Ji has made many contributions to the development of China culture. He and Master Xuanzang devoted all their efforts and wisdom to the translation of Buddhist scriptures, and translated 74 Buddhist scriptures, with a volume of 1335, each of which was about 10000 words, accounting for more than half of the total translation of Buddhist scriptures in the Tang Dynasty.

Xuanzang's translated books indicate Kui Ji's collection of pens, including ten volumes of Cheng Weizhi's Theory, one volume of Ode to Distinguishing Chinese Borders, three volumes of Distinguishing Chinese Borders, one volume of Only Knowing Twenty Theories, one volume of Different Schools and three volumes of Abidharma's Theory of Body and Foot. Among them, the translation of On Cheng Weizhi deserves special attention.

This is a treatise explaining Thirty Essays on Consciousness, which was written by relatives all over the world and belongs to the nature of concentrated notes. It is the main branch of one of the ten branches of Yoga translated by China. When he wrote Thirty Poems in Qin Dynasty, he died without releasing it, which was later interpreted by Qin Sheng, Huo Bian and other theorists.

His theoretical thoughts are extremely rich. However, academic circles have always believed that the only-knowing school is characterized by transplanting the Indian yoga school, and they have not fully understood the true features of the Indian yoga school, especially the development of the school, so it is impossible to clearly define the original contents in Kui Ji's works that inherit Indian Buddhism.

In addition, Master Xuanzang did not write his thoughts specifically, and many of his creative thoughts also depended on the preservation of Kui Ji's works. Up to now, Kui Ji's contribution to the systematization and systematization of the doctrine of only knowing Sect is still the last one in the Buddhist system of Han Dynasty. In other words, without Kui Ji's works and Kui Ji's unremitting efforts, the thought of Indian Yoga School would not have developed into a kind Sect in Middle-earth.
