This story is said to have been told to others by An Shigao of the Later Han Dynasty after he came to China. It is said that there was a juggler who carried a burden and walked around the streets to play magic tricks. Sing and dance there. Later, she felt that it was boring to be alone, so she conjured a handsome guy from the magic box, and the two of them were drinking and flirting. After playing for a while, she heard the master's snoring stopped and was about to wake up. She quickly put away the handsome guy and returned to the cloth bag herself. Then the master woke up. The man who does the magic trick is already an illusion, and the burden of his magic is also an illusion, jumping out of a girl is an illusion, and the girl turns into a handsome guy again, it is still an illusion. ---- Master Mingzang's "Yuanjuejing Lectures"
In my opinion, this movie is a vivid interpretation of "illusion to generate illusion".
