The child is not the same when he grows up and becomes a young man, nor when the latter turns into an old man. The child is not the same when he grows up and becomes a young man, nor when the latter turns into an old man.The seed is not the tree, though it produces the tree, and the fruit is also not the tree, though it is produced by the tree. The seed is not the tree, though it produces the tree, and the fruit is also not the tree, though it is produced by the tree.-The Buddha -The Buddha-The Buddha
