Li Shimin gave the Tang Priest a customs clearance document, and no one dared to slack off wherever he went. What does it say?

This customs clearance is described in detail in the book of Journey to the West. The general content of customs clearance is Li Shimin. He modestly described some of his achievements, and then he said that he had a dream recently, in which someone took him to hell, and then Yan told him to make an amphibious dharma meeting to comfort the undead.

Then Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared and told him that there were Buddhist scriptures that traveled through people in the west and asked him to send someone to learn them. Finally, I said that Tang Priest was passing by and asked some countries to give him some convenience and let them take care of Tang Priest. Generally speaking, the content is to explain the reasons for Tang Priest to learn from the scriptures, so as to facilitate crossing the border. I think this essay on customs clearance is so useful because the Tang Dynasty was the overlord of that era.

The Tang Dynasty was the envy of neighboring small countries in economy, science and technology and culture, and then each small country would send some envoys to study in the Tang Dynasty, so the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and some neighboring countries was still very friendly. Neighboring countries are in awe of the Tang Dynasty, so when Tang priest passes through these countries, he will show these customs clearance documents to the national managers, and they will give him very high courtesy.

Because the Tang Priest represents the Tang Dynasty, with a huge Tang Dynasty behind him, this small country naturally dare not bully him. Moreover, it is also written in the customs clearance that the reason why Tang Priest went to learn the scriptures was because he got the guidance of Guanyin Bodhisattva. At that time, in feudal times, people were in awe of these gods. With the protection of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the leaders of those countries will be afraid of Guanyin Bodhisattva even if they are not afraid of the Tang Dynasty.
