We all are Buddha
I captured the people who were silent, working diligently, and wishing for Nirvana in their place.
In Buddhism, there is a belief of Saṃsāra, which is the cycle of death and rebirth. This life is the result of the previous life and the next life is the result of this life. In order to reach Nirvana, the final stage of reincarnation, enlightenment must be gained in this life, and this can be obtained by faithfully doing what is in its place.
Seeing them living hard even in a difficult environment, I also gained new enlightenment. Actually, I do believe that capturing them is the way I am becoming a Buddha.
Love everything that surrounds me, and hope to be the one who can influence people in a positive way.
