In the traditional culture of China, the concept of "God refers to Buddha" can be traced back to ancient times. In ancient fairy tales, gods and buddhas are often depicted holding hands in the direction. In addition, the divine finger can also be a form of folk belief. For example, in the market in the south of China, believers often make finger of gods for themselves to seek the protection of gods.
Although God and Buddha have different concrete manifestations in different cultural beliefs, at the basic level, the spiritual connotations represented by God and Buddha are interlinked. They all represent believers' yearning for truth, wisdom and strength higher than human beings, and entrust their inner demands for spiritual growth, morality and humanistic care.
