Video games employ two basic motivations to keep players engaged. These are termed Extrinsic motivation and Intrinsic motivation. Games based on, or balanced in favour of, Intrinsic motivation keep you engaged because playing the game is a lot of fun. The entertainment value you get from the game is enough reward in itself. Extrinsic games are designed around the drive to earn lootboxes. Extrinsic games are intentionally designed to be addictive. They specifically exploit the human brain’s tendency toward gambling addiction. This is why people who play extrinsic games tend to suffer higher rates of depression than people who play Intrinsic games. With Extrinsic games there's always a feeling of withdrawal as soon as the players can’t play the game. Now, I want you to consider how much things would change if we, the players, all ignored the Extrinsic motivations that arise when we play the game of life and focused a bit more on the Intrinsic experience...

The Bodhisattva Maitreya, the Buddha of the future. Maitreya is believed to currently reside in Tushita Heaven and is typically depicted as having either a peaceful appearance (Bodhisattva) or Buddha appearance. Maitreya Budhha is depicted sitting on the throne in meditative posture, waiting for his time. He will reintroduce the True Dharma to the world. Maitreya is depicted in a posture symbolizing that he is ready to arise in response to the need of the world and descend to turn the wheel of Dharma, as Shakyamuni did before him. His hands are in teaching mudra at his heart.
