Buddhist aerobics

On the street in the morning, there were few pedestrians. Female clothing store owners stood in front of their stores, clapping their hands to Buddhist music, standing still, and doing simple rhythmic exercises. "Amitabha, Amitabha..." Simple and melodious music floated over the streets, making the dancing aunts even more pious.

Day after day, they do Buddhist aerobics for half an hour every morning. Over time, the aunties doing exercises have become a beautiful scenery on the street, making the deserted streets lively and more energetic. Even pedestrians passing by couldn't help but follow the rhythm of the music and clap their hands with the aunts.

A few days ago, I went to the Honghuashan Buddhist Temple and saw a banner with the slogan: Religion must serve socialism.

Lo and behold, Buddhism has moved out of the temples and into the streets. Let the aunts dance and make them healthier physically and mentally. Isn't this just responding to the party's call?
