Is it unlucky to worship bodhisattva during a person's menstrual period?

No, women can burn incense and worship Buddha during their physiological period.

Folk rumors say that women's menstrual blood during their physiological period will hit ghosts and gods, making them angry at the sight of blood. If they go to the temple to worship Buddha during the physiological period, they will "offend" the Buddha and Bodhisattva and disrespect them. There is no such thing as Buddhism.

The physiological period is the normal physiological state of women, not to mention the believers at home. There will also be many female monks and nuns in the temple who become nuns. Should they stop practicing because of the so-called taboo of physiological period? It is obviously unreasonable. As long as you have the motivation to burn incense and worship Buddha and keep yourself clean and tidy, you can rest assured that you can worship Buddha and have unlimited merits.

Just pay homage to the bodhisattva with your heart. When you have menstruation, you can change it in advance when you worship Buddha. Then when you worship Buddha, don't worship in the middle. It is best to worship both sides. It is best to put the cushion in the center of the Buddha statue and tilt it to both sides (the cushion on the left is like the left, and the cushion on the right is like the right). These are all rituals, and Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will not be persistent.

These ceremonies are our piety and reverence for Buddha and Bodhisattva, but if we want to do it better, we really can't do it in an emergency, so don't be persistent. The most important thing is sincerity.

Taboos related to Buddha worship

Walk clockwise in the temple to worship Buddha. After entering the temple gate, don't go straight to the center. You should walk along your left arm when you go forward and backward.

Try not to walk in the middle before entering the temple. Walk along the stairs, men left and women right. Try not to go through the main entrance, because the abbot's door enters through the main entrance in the evening class, while the novice monk enters through the side door. So in order to keep in line with the temple, everyone tries to enter from the side door, male left and female right. When women enter, cross their right feet as much as possible, and when they go out, they can go out through the side door. Don't step on the threshold.

Be pious, be honest, and have clean hands. Don't make a loud noise and say irrelevant "nagging" in the temple. Don't point your finger at the Buddha statue. Don't blow the curtains, don't talk loudly. Don't cross the futon.

Because it will also give people an unconscious feeling, and it is impolite to stand in front of pilgrims who are worshipping, because it may make others feel angry. Greed, anger and delusion are the three poisons on the road to practice. It is difficult to see the truth if the three poisons are not extinguished.
