  2. Has proper English subs. Context: Taken from an interview with Apple Music 〈Golden Flower of Paradise〉 Jiaquan: "The title of the song is my grandma's real name. My grandma passed away last year. I only learned in recent years that she never had the concept of home from the moment she was born. She was born in a very poor family and was sold to my current grandpa like an object. This was the child bride culture that still existed at that time. She never had the opportunity to plan her future, study or fall in love freely. In the year when my grandma passed away, I encountered the "Amitabha Sutra" which had a profound impact on me during the mourning ceremony. This sutra describes in detail the scene of the Western Paradise after death. The "descending spirit" in this song projects a chance for her to live again, like a golden flower growing again from the soil. In the middle, I also quoted a passage from the "Great Compassion Bodhisattva's Vow": "In a moment, you will be born in the Pure Land." This is also my way of expressing my longing for my grandma."
