No.286 - Human and animals being born is the same as a mushroom being born.

Human and animals being born is the same as a mushroom being born.

They say a mushroom sprouted, it is simply a mushroom being born. It was just the morning the mushroom is born, but in the evening it already withered and died. It looked pleasant and fresh in the morning, and later it bloomed and wilted.

We can clearly see that the process is very quick.

 Appeared in the morning, bloomed in the afternoon, and then it wilted and died for you to clearly see.

Humans and animals are the same, but we only assumed that it is long when it really is not.

The cycle goes around on its way just like the mushroom. It is the same cycle.

The same destination.

The same element.

You must never let yourself become negligible.
