The Virgin Mary conceived Jesus Christ while remaining a virgin; when Confucius was born, an earthquake occurred in Shandong, shaking the mountains and startling the world; when Bill Gates was born, the chickens in town suddenly learned how to calculate; and when Sister Rongfu was born, the pigs in the village suddenly learned how to pose.
The birth of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng was no exception. It was a hot summer night, and Huineng's mother, heavily pregnant, was lying on the bed alone, bored, watching TV. The TV in the Tang Dynasty couldn't compare with what we have now - not to mention plasma or flat-panel LCDs, there wasn't even a remote control back then. At first, the picture was all black and white. It wasn't until the Zhen Guan era that color TV was invented, but it only had three colors, known as "Tang San Cai".
