Special Guest Blogger: Buddhist God Pigsy

Originally holding the title of Marshall of the Jade Emperor's Heavenly armies and commander-in-chief of 80,000 Celestial sailors, i did have an eye for the angels and a face for stuffing food into at every opportunity but being a great General meant my many indiscretions were generally overlooked until one day i guzzled too much peach wine and misbehaved with Chang’e, Goddess of the Moon. Oops.
She raised such a fuss that armed guards hauled me off to the Jade Emperor who decided my punishment was to be cast out of Heaven and sent to be reincarnated on Earth, where i fell into a pigs sty on a farm and was reborn as a man-eating pig-monster.
I saved the farmers daughter from being kidnapped and such was my reward that the grateful Farmer  offered her to me in marriage and to become part of their family but my animal nature soon took over and though i managed to do quite a lot of work in the fields, I also manages to eat so much that the farm was losing money.  
The farmer sent a servant to the nearby village to offer gold to anyone who could rid them of me and the pilgrim Tripitaka was passing with his guardian, the Monkey King, who offered me a way back to heaven if I help them in a quest. I reluctantly agreed and they named me Pigsy.
We travelled to India, carrying Tripitaka’s baggage and fighting demons along the way until finally our quest was fulfilled and i achieved enlightenment.
I was made Cleaner of the Holy Altar in Buddhist Heaven which may sound like a very menial job for an ex-Marshall of the Heavenly Hosts, but thousands of worshipers send offerings to that altar every day and I get all the leftovers I can eat so win-win as far as i'm concerned.
