In the classical language theory of traditional Buddhism, there is a famous saying: "A flower is the world and a leaf is bodhi". A flower can see the whole world, and a leaf can represent the whole bodhi tree. Buddhism is a profound knowledge, and many profound philosophies are beyond the reach of our growing young minds.
