black panther buddha

This is exactly what I'm looking for and good peoplez, I know you are out there. You are the buddha, unpretentious, doing the work to keep our communities healthy, happy and safe. You are the bodhisattva, clearing away confusion, fiercely carrying and living your love, working diligently, maintaining the vigil of awakening. You are the one intent on taking this breath in peace, knowing that this moment, freedom lives.
