[Love] Buddhist practice!

The first few dozen pictures are just foreshadowing. The more you read later, the better it gets. Just bear with it. I dare say that except for this book, everything else related to Buddhism is bullshit.

Basically there aren't many that are well written. This one barely counts. Because many novels about cultivating Buddhism always think of getting benefits from this place and not doing anything for them. Just wearing the skin of a Buddhist cultivator. Being a warrior or cultivating immortals. Buddhist scriptures and principles are not discussed at all. It's like being a bitch and setting up a memorial arch.

This one is really good to watch. The main character is Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, who is a great merciful and compassionate rescuer of suffering and great inspiration (gentle and a little distant, and the main character also has divinity). It's worth watching!
