According to the Buddhist concept, life release is an action of saving the lives of beings that were captured.
People often organize fish and bird release on occasion of the traditional Lunar New Year, the 15th of the first month and the 7th lunar month or during ceremonies praying for their family. Life release shows compassion and brings peace and happiness to beings.
