Samsara translates as "reincarnation" in Chinese. Judging from the name of this film alone, it carries an important meaning of life value, especially when the subtitles reminded me that there are no lines in the film, which raised my curiosity.
At the beginning of the film, starting with religion, starting with the elaborate drawing of the mandala by the lamas, the mandala gradually reveals its clear eyebrows, and the great world opens to us.
The whole film involves multiple scenes, different countries, religions, races, and events. This reminds me of the documentary "One Day". In one day, there are lives in the world, some people die, some people are in jail, and some people are scratching their heads in a nightclub. , Some people are kowtow, some are writing poems, some are having breakfast in a six-star hotel in Dubai, and some are picking up rubbish in the garbage dump. With such a big world and so many choices of lifestyles, how can one live a good life?
All things in the world have made you and me because of their destiny, and they have also built this prosperous world. Wars, races, competitions, conflicts, and sex came one after another. I was overwhelmed in the background rotation of this frame. The Big Thousand World showed its both hateful and lovely side. We hate her, but it is hard to give up. Everything, no one can escape this reincarnation, let alone their own destiny, just like the broilers in the documentary that are drawn into the machine, how can we be crushed by the ruthless gears of destiny, unable to escape, we It seems that he has no intention of breaking free, and he will never get tired of it in this virtual paradise.
Gradually, the Islamic singing remembered that people are like ants, ups and downs in Mecca, bowing to Allah. The scene is truly shocking. For generations, people have prayed for spiritual sustenance and destination. As soon as the picture turned, he returned to the mandala. Several old lamas looked at the exquisite mandala that had been carefully drawn over the past few days, and gently brushed them away, without any nostalgia. Yes, the world is just a handful of sand, After that, there is nothing left. We are not just a grain of sand, small and humble before the powerful force majeure of nature.
The material greed for external pursuits will not eventually get the inner peace. The prosperous world makes us almost forget that it is a grand illusion of a gathering of karma, and seeking inner peace from within is the key to the ultimate secret, even though I It is a grain of sand, and I am also my own universe.
