In digital communication, people use it to express Buddhist faith, meditation, mindfulness, or Eastern philosophy. It can also indicate dharma teachings, Vesak celebrations, or a general sense of inner peace and right living. Because of its religious gravity, it is typically shared with respect rather than casual playfulness.
