The Forest Fire

2515109997?profile=original

This world is compared to a forest fire caused by the cohesion of bamboo bushes. Such a forest fire takes place automatically, for bamboo cohesion occurs without external cause. Similarly, in the material world the wrath of those who want to impose their supremacy over material nature interacts, and the fire of war takes place, exhausting the unwanted population. The Lord has nothing to do with Such fires or wars that take place. But because He wants to maintain the creation, He desires the mas
