Human life deviates from God’s teachings.Monk Sumana (Sumana)In an interview with the Associated Press, nature punished these people because they did not follow the Buddha's guidance.People should learn from this.Religion is prevalent in Sri Lanka, 70% of the people are Buddhists, and there are also a large number of Christians, Hindus and Islamists.

Sumana, a witness to the tsunami, said some kind of invisible force protected a nearby Buddha statue.This Buddha statue is located next to a bridge next to a bus transfer station in a southern town in Sri Lanka.The tsunami swallowed up pedestrians and shoppers, and cars and buses were also washed into the building. Even the glass windows protecting the Buddha statue were shattered, but the Buddha statue stood still in the rushing flood.

A school was almost completely destroyed after the tide, but the Buddha statue standing in the school did not even change its location after the tsunami.

A famous local monk said on a TV show in Sri Lanka that the tsunami was arranged by God, and that someone would come out to save people and teach people how to be good people in the new world of the future.

According to the latest statistics, the number of deaths caused by the South Asian tsunami has reached 280,000.

After the South Asian tsunami, many survivors attributed their death to the divine spirit.When the tsunami hit, Ken of Sri Lanka was trapped at the bottom of the sea, with cement boards pressing on his head and his body being constantly hit by big waves. When he was about to lack oxygen, he begged the Buddha to save him.Ken said that the Buddha responded immediately: Suddenly the cement board broke, allowing him to float to the surface.A Sri Lankan hotel operator told his experience in this way: Although everything else was destroyed within a radius of several kilometers, his hotel was miraculously only slightly injured.He said that this is due to the good deeds he has accumulated over the past decade.More than 30,000 people died in Sri Lanka. Wherever the turbulent tsunami went, hotels, houses and buildings were ruined and messy, but the Buddha statues stood still in the rushing flood waters without any damage.

In a small fishing village with about 2,000 residents next to Lalai Beach in Phuket, southern Tainan, fishermen usually hold a ceremony to honor the sea god every August to seek the sea god's safety.When the tsunami hit, relying on the elders' instructions, the whole village escaped the shipwreck without any casualties.In Phuket, Thailand, a complete wooden Buddha statue stands in front of a destroyed diving shop! The miserable situation of the diving shop forms an extremely sharp contrast with the integrity of the wooden Buddha statue. (See Figure 2 ) It is simply incredible for atheists, and it seems far-fetched no matter how you explain it; it does not need to explain it at all for those who admire gods and Buddhas, and everything is natural.

In the face of great disasters, human beings are helpless and powerless. In the ever-changing universe, human beings do not understand the cause. For three hundred years, Western empirical science and modern utilitarianism have blocked human eyes, curbed human beings' innate spirituality that is connected with heaven and earth, and distorted human wisdom.In this vast universe, no matter how small a human is, no matter how great a creation of human beings is, it is vulnerable to the world.It is no wonder that China has had a culture and tradition of cultivation since ancient times.Understanding the ultimate in life and transcending birth, old age, sickness and death is a state that wise people can only achieve through practice.
