Story happening is in American California Oakland city, this is a busy haven city, have many ab extra immigrant,
Reside all the time in crime rate of a few community do not fall high,
From on century 6, begin seventies, drugs begins to run rampant, the drugs on street is trafficced, suck phenomenon sees slightly not bright,
Subsequently and the grow in quantity that those who come is violent crime, a lot of firearms carried murder on the back,
Rob, into room theft, rape, walk the street, violent assault also happens from time to tome,
These year come, oakland city was bring down crime rate to make all sorts of effort, but the effect that did not highlight.
Of Oakland east the 11st highway mixes lake area east 19 streets the community of this part, suffer one of community that crime perplexes namely,
Live Dan Shidiwensi and wife also are the dweller that be here all the time the surroundings be anxious all round oneself,
All sorts of crime cases let a person do not say without safe feeling,
Still have a difficult problem that puzzles his home,
People often piles up the mattess that does not want, sofa and other rubbish in because the 11st highway is mixed east the corner of 19 streets,
And the home of red is on,
Go out to face one caboodle rubbish, no matter be their couple two or all round neighbour, right this very accurate,
Add can pothead is in near the corner suck drugs,
From time to time somebody comes on the wall all round informal doodle, do farfetchedly,
All round small mix mix also like to come here, faineant ground is blind saunter.
Such allows red and the condition with resentful wife, they reflect a condition to concerned branch repeatedly, but effects is very small.
2011 one of these day, red breaks out crank,
The hardware store that he and wife go place,
Bought one honour 60 centimeters tall white concrete figure of Buddha,
Place in that to let the corner that poll is fond of.
Figure of Buddha is found a place for be below an olive,
Be afraid of by person spirit away, they still spent 35 dollars to buy glue and screw to secure figure of Buddha on the ground.
Actually red is not Buddhist, he claims oneself are devotional without any religion, even these year experience lets him also lack enough confidence to human nature,
But he feels to be in a such community that give priority to with Nazarene, the figure of figure of Buddha is more indifferent,
Won't give a person too much and oppressive sense again imperially already,
Probably so place, is rubbish thrown opposite the home with respect to nobody?
Whether can red produce the effect to also do not have chart to figure of Buddha actually, nevertheless a few the world come,
He discovers the circumstance is in really surprizingly improve,
Since figure of Buddha appear in the corner,
Also go to without the person again over there caboodle rubbish,
Although not be Buddhist, also feel embarrassed to be rubbish dump all round figure of Buddha?
Originally all round the rubbish of nobody pay attention to, unexpectedly somebody clears stealthily,
The eye looks at surroundings to become neat, red and the neighbour all round are glad bad.
Figure of Buddha had positive effect, but the method that does not mean everybody to support red,
Also experienced a few small twists and turns among them.
A few weeks after red puts figure of Buddha, the Vina Vo of Vietnam descendants neighbour of same community and her son Cuc Vo found red,
Request red makes them responsible take care of figure of Buddha, because they are Buddhist, dan Shuang agreed quickly.
This pair of mothers child the first thing that do,
Installed the base of concrete for figure of Buddha namely, still removed simple and easy niche for a statue of Buddha with wood wearing,
It is allegedly in their belief,
"Figure of Buddha can be placed on the ground directly anything but " !
It is a such act, caused the dissatisfaction of a few people,
They said to install niche for a statue of Buddha, come over with respect to somebody hold a memorial ceremony for is done obeisance to, and direct station is on the street,
Have potential safe hidden trouble, also took up communal space,
Many people send mail to give public project the department, requirement figure of Buddha " ban " .
Immediately relevant staff member searchs come to be coordinated with red, hope they change figure of Buddha a place,
Place in so not hinderous place for instance, perhaps pull down the part with larger and so on of niche for a statue of Buddha,
Want probably to demolish figure of Buddha forcibly otherwise.
The course is an investigation, fortunately harmonious, also consider environment of community of that paragraph of time gets ameliorative accordingly really probably,
Last government does not have overmuch interpose, figure of Buddha is come down by reservation.
This stays is several years, community dweller was used to the existence of figure of Buddha gradually,
And in Vo mother child do attentively below, this little corner always is in perfect order.
They can ask for those who get red to agree first every time, another upgrades every time the hardware all round figure of Buddha,
Build a cabinet and delicate niche for a statue of Buddha, still invited another honour figure of Buddha, everyday in an endless stream of articles of tribute,
Figure of Buddha, niche for a statue of Buddha, articles of tribute is put centrally, the brushwood clip all round is orderly, as far as possible little take up communal space,
Still hold out it seems that picture so return a responsibility.
Arrived 2017, the corner produced striking change,
Vo Mu Zixian is to be chromatically of figure of Buddha, from original white, arrive to be worn for figure of Buddha on color of skin,
Still caught black hair and gules lip, draped aureate aba for figure of Buddha,
Niche for a statue of Buddha is more advanced also now, have a little room so big, be become by besmear flaxen,
There is one side to write above have " Phap Duyen Tu " a horizontal inscribed board, meaning for " halcyon " ,
Everyday somebody consecrate fruit or hold a memorial ceremony for of burn joss sticks is done obeisance to,
Still installed confuse your acoustics to be able to broadcast Buddhist song, and a monitoring is photographed go to the lavatory to observe at any time like the head all round circumstance.
Flash went 7 years,
From lone one honour figure of Buddha,
To the niche for a statue of Buddha of beautiful of primitive simplicity,
All without exception is condensing red and Vo mother child painstaking effort.
Although Vo mother child still look for red to seek an opinion as always,
But red often says " the figure of Buddha that this is you " , he thinks Mu Zizhao letting Vo considers figure of Buddha again appropriate did not pass.
This once the corner of stack rubbish,
Now is a scene another however:
Every morning at 7 o'clock, vina Vo and all round other Vietnam descendants women, can gather before figure of Buddha,
They wear the monk robe of baby blue, here classics of pay intribute, Song, pray, auspicious.
Allow when to be awaited almost, can be all round niche for a statue of Buddha find Vina Vo,
She and husband and another other people the main controller that now is niche for a statue of Buddha, be in charge of sweeping every morning,
This consecrate has the corner of figure of Buddha, had made the mark of whole community.
More of surprise letting a person still be from the back,
Figure of Buddha not only the case that settled corner litter,
The crime rate that links community was reduced accordingly!
The poison that often appears in the corner so is peddled, hooter, appear no longer gradually,
Replace, it is the dweller around, will to the front of figure of Buddha leave a few articles of tribute such as sweet, candle, flower, fruit,
Return somebody to come here to help change blasted flower, the brushwood that clip surrounds next week, the corner always is the picture of a flourishing.
The environment was improved, increasing person is willing to come here take a walk, walk a dog, mix incidentally neighbour people get on a few a little.
Although they are not Buddhist,
The atmosphere of community is a lot of better than before, between person and person more harmonious.
Red once requested a police to help statistic, it is the crime rate inside this area of the center with figure of Buddha,

To Vina Vo, the existence of figure of Buddha just did not offer hold a memorial ceremony for to do obeisance to a place with them so simple,
They because the connection of this and community dweller is more close;
To red, the meaning of figure of Buddha is to helped him square not only the rubbish problem before the door,
Still brought to whole community energy,
