The fruit position of "Arhat" is regarded as the highest level of liberation purpose in primitive Buddhism. It is also the highest fruit of Buddhist practice. In ancient India, a person had to go through four stages to practice. The first stage is practicing Buddhism, and the second stage is becoming a monk, that is, practicing at home. The third stage is becoming a monk and the last stage is liberation and enlightenment.
Nowadays, many film and television dramas and even some Mahayana classics record that the Buddha realized enlightenment under the bodhi tree at the age of 35 and was called the Buddha. However, according to the original Buddhist documents recorded in Pali, Sakyamuni gained the status of Arhat grosvenor when he realized the Tao under the bodhi tree. In other words, Sakyamuni is the first arhat in our world.
In many primitive Buddhist scriptures, especially in some primitive Buddhist scriptures, Sakyamuni calls himself "Arhat". There was a dialogue between the Buddha and the pagans in the Collection of Laws. The Buddha claimed that "there is no teacher in the world." In many Balinese documents today, the Buddha is recorded as the interpretation of arhat. From the standpoint of primitive Buddhism, the word "Buddha" is sometimes translated into arhat.
Zhao Li is a Buddha who is not in the "Three Realms". According to past and present karma, in the past world, there were 6 1 arhats, including the Buddha himself. Here, the Buddha called himself an arhat, and admitted that there were many arhats like him in the past. This record is also the theoretical basis in Mahayana Buddhism. If you write arhat as a Buddha, you can also think that there were sixty-one Buddhas in the past.
Agama records that the Buddha is an arhat, and the arhat is the Buddha. Therefore, it can also be said that Zhao Li is powerful because he is a "Buddha" who has escaped reincarnation and is not in the three realms.
Zhao Li is not a real ghost, but a person who can kill Meng Po, and Meng Po can only be killed by one person in this world, and that is Asura with high self-cultivation. From the conversation between Zhao Li and Meng Shi, I learned that Zhao Li went to Meng Po Zhuang to look for Pluto. Hades took his things, and he went to get them.
But Meng Shi told him that when he arrived in the underworld, he would forget everything and where he came from and where he was going. Zhao Li, regardless of Meng Shi's obstruction, will go to the underworld even if he kills Meng Shi. Then, as we all know, a ghost will be sent to Zhao Li.
At the end of Death, Sanqi asked Zhao Li for some blood. Finally, Zhao Li was surprised that his blood could kill Sanqi. As you can imagine, Zhao Li did enter the underworld, but what happened between him and Hades is unknown. I only know that he has changed from a sophisticated Asura to a ghost sent by Zhao Li.
Zhao Li is not an ordinary ghost in The Ferry of the Soul. He has an unusual relationship with hades tea. But also become one with Xuan Nv and know her origin.
