He was one of the Three Pure Ones of Taoism and was revered as the three ancestral gods of Taoism together with Immortal Yuding and Fairy Hunyuan.

The little white wolf chose to stay when the Heavenly Feather Mountain was in danger to repay the kindness of saving his life.

According to the story of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong's master, Bodhi, and the future Bodhi were not the same person. In the Journey to the West, Patriarch Bodhi was a talented disciple of Taoism who was sent to the human world to teach Taoism. Sun Wukong heard about the existence of Patriarch Bodhi on his way to the scriptures and received guidance from Patriarch Bodhi because he asked the patriarch to give him a positive fruit. However, in Buddhism, Patriarch Bodhi was regarded as a master of Zen and was the disciple of the fifth ancestor of Zen, Hongren, not a Taoist figure. In the future, Bodhi referred to the founder of Zen Buddhism. He was one of the teachers of Buddha Sakyamuni and was considered one of the origins of Zen Buddhism. In Buddhism, Patriarch Bodhi was regarded as a symbol of wisdom and enlightenment. He was respectfully called "Patriarch Bodhi" or "Bodhi Buddha" and was a very famous master in Buddhism.
