Buddha Drifter, it is our way of respect addressing everyone here. I understand what u mean about 放生. On behalf of all Buddhists, I'm totally sorry. I was once an idiot after realizing the damages done to the animals. All in all, there's no commercial demand, no commercial supply, in that way, all animals are free in the very first place. Fault lies not on Great Buddha but the ignorance one like me. I'm still a learning one, if of any misunderstanding I can help clear, I would like to hear your side of story if u permit. Namo Amitahba.
