What are the rich connotations of the spirit of learning from The Journey to the West?

Saving the people from fire and water is a sacred mission and a lofty cause to help all beings. Although it appears in the form of religion, its inner spirit deeply conforms to the enterprising spirit, sense of responsibility, sense of mission and willpower of Confucianism, showing unshakable value belief, indomitable personality perseverance and rational consciousness of not changing its will. The setting of "eighty-one difficulties" is to make them "be patient and have benefited from what they can't do" in the hardships of "suffering their minds, straining their bones and muscles, starving their bodies and messing around", and finally establish a sense of responsibility of "taking the world as their own responsibility". Because "the mind is born, the demons are born, the mind is destroyed, and the demons are destroyed", to "correct the heart", we must first "destroy the thief in the heart", because Wang Yangming said that it is easy to destroy the thief in the mountain, but it is difficult to destroy the thief in the heart. In order to subdue the "Heart Ape", the novel also designed a magic spell to regulate and restrain his actions. The real name of the hooping mantra is "truth-centered" to do all this. In fact, in the words of Confucian "university", it means "honesty, righteousness, self-cultivation, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world"

What matters is not the result, but the process. The scripture that is truly obtained is the truth, goodness and beauty realized on the way to the scriptures.
