Q

Xuan Zang

Why I’ve Picked this choiceX is always going to be a difficult letter, I could have dived into figure from the adult entertainment industry, but I found this movie Xuan Zang, now I didn’t have time to see this or be able to find it to watch. This is one to complete the collection, with it fitting the letter,

Here is the synopsis – During the Tang Dynasty’s during the era of “Zhen Guan” (era name during rule of Emperor Taizong), the young Xuan Zang monk, in his quest for the knowledge in Buddhism, embarked on a journey to India, that is fraught with perils and dangers, natural disasters, and sees the sufferings of the common people. Soldiers gets in his way, his disciples betrays him, he struggles through deserts, runs short of food and water, all in the quest for Buddha’s teachings. He finally arrives in India, and studies Buddhism in earnest. By the time he returns to China, he is already 50 years old.

Let me know if you have seen this one.
