Vientiane cycle of change goes back and forth

When I was 19, I hadn't read a few philosophy books, and my mind was barren, although it's pretty much the same now. At that time, I recorded this on Weibo:

"After reading it, I didn't understand what he wanted to convey. Because of organ donation, three unrelated people were strung together, and three different organs were gathered into the same person. This describes the story of these three people and this person. (emphasis added, there are actually 8 people), at the end of the film, they get together to watch the donor filmed his own life. After watching it, I only understood one thing - this is an organ donation promotional film , so that more people can donate organs.”

Then I added:

"Compared to watching a movie or reading a book, it is better to understand what the author wants to convey - the paradox of Theseus (assuming that the constituent elements of an object are replaced, but it is still the original object?), so it is a part of the body. After being replaced, are they still themselves?"

But at the moment of the flash (additional note), perhaps I touched a slight edge of the film.

Indian philosophical films are very enlightening and make people think about the rhythm of life. They seem to have nothing to do with each other, but everyone has a bond between them. To a certain extent, through the value of life and death, they may be able to reach a higher dimension.

The picture evidence has been repeated above, so there is no need to look at the picture content.

Ship of Theseus quotes

  • Aaliya Kamal: A frog once asked a centipede how is it able to walk on a hundred feet, so gracefully synchronized while the frog finds it difficult to manage even two. The centipede took a moment to analyze its own walk and was baffled. So as it tried to walk further its feet got entangled and it tripped.

  • Maitreya: There was an island and you were to be reborn as a tormentor or a slave. The tormentor would make life hell for you, will give infinite pain to you and your kin, just for his pleasure. And he had no remorse over his actions to crush his victim. Add to that there was no karma, no soul, no retribution, no being responsible for your actions. And you had to choose any one of them. Who would you be?
