About atonement and repentance for past crimes

I committed stealing when I was in middle school.
Currently, there is a statute of limitations for detectives.
(Details are written in the profile.)

Recently, I remembered this, made a donation, etc., and tried to make amends and repent, but after all, when I think about my partner's time, I want to make amends to the other party somehow.

Since I can't identify my partner, I can't directly apologize or make amends, so I'd like to somehow borrow the help of Amida Buddha and ask them to do something good for them, but is that possible?

Also, stealing is a felony in Buddhism, but is it possible to get forgiveness from Amida Buddha if I repent?

From now on, I'm thinking about accumulating virtue by continuously doing good things such as blood donation and donations.

for the sake of others?

Midori.
I read it.
I'm reflecting on it.

I did a bad thing.
That's an undeniable fact.

The judgment at that time was wrong, wasn't it? But would you do the same thing now?
If so, there would be no Buddha or god. Fall as far as you fall.

But even when you're told to do it, they seem to refuse. Far from succumbing to temptation, he has a heart where temptation doesn't even spring up. I get the impression that it is in front of a Bodhisattva.

Even if you try to reward or make amends, it won't come true. Your partner doesn't care about your sins. Unfortunately I can't do it for Chara.

However, there are things that can be gained more than Chara through merit for others. They probably have no desire to get it, but it seems like they can get it. the key to something.

Not only will Amita, but also Buddha at other milestones be seen thinking about and reflecting on that partner.

It may go around, make amends for your opponent, and there will be more than enough to make up for it (although there's no end to it).

I think we can fulfill our responsibilities by working as a broad apology to society rather than narrowing down the person responsible for the crime.

Please continue to contribute to society.
