Today, most release activities have lost their original meaning. People who set free put their good luck and longevity on release, and compassion becomes selfish. There is evidence that most of the released people care about fish, birds and animals and are indifferent to the suffering of similar people. In their struggle with others, they can't see any Buddhist compassion.
At present, there are release activities everywhere, but they have not brought much benefit to society; Some people spend tens or even hundreds of dollars on fish every month, some people can't afford to go to school or cure diseases, and even their clothes and houses are in rags.
