How to burn paper on Mid-Autumn Festival?

Question 1: How to write a picture when burning paper in Mid-Autumn Festival? Generally speaking, paper bags are used to offer sacrifices to deceased relatives. After the package is burned, even if the money is sent out, it is the same as sending a parcel by the post office, except that the recipient is in the underworld.

Since it is a parcel for sending money, you have to write the names of the sender and the recipient (of course, the address of the recipient cannot be written, and the mailing address is also exempted). This is called writing baggage. There is a lot of pressure and knowledge in writing baggage. Please ask the old gentleman who has read the book to write more.

There is only one word written on the back of the package: sealed. Straw, pressed with the seam of origami, represents sealing. Don't let others take it away while posting.

The positive writing is more complicated. For example, on the Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, someone wrote a package to his late father and wrote it on the front.

Central plains sends money

So it is obvious to test the boss of a certain government.

If you are writing a package to your late mother, the middle line will be changed to "I'm sorry for an old man and a woman."

In the upper right corner, "Sending money from the Central Plains" talks about the reason and time of sending money by burning bags. People have just died, and in the past, burning bags meant sending money in coffins; On the first day of the first month, the fifth day of May, the fifteenth day of July and the fifteenth day of August, we burned luggage and sent money to the first day of the New Year, Duanyang, Zhongyuan and Mid-Autumn Festival respectively.

The middle line is the main part of the package, indicating the title and name of the recipient. "Therefore" means death. "Excellent in exams" and "excellent" are the honorifics of parents, and it doesn't matter whether parents are "excellent". When grandchildren send money to their ancestors, they should write "showing their ancestors" and "showing their ancestors". "A certain family" means a certain family's business. "Taboo" should be moved half a word to the right, and the names of the older generation should not be said or written casually. The man went on to write taboos. A woman can write her last name, not her first name. Women of my grandmother's generation have no scientific names, only nicknames. Mother's nickname, the child may not know. "Old man" and "old woman" become honorifics again. It is fair to call the deceased "an adult" and "a child" regardless of his status before his death. The underworld and the dead have different values. Beggars may ascend to heaven after death, and princes and ministers may go to hell after death.

"Useful under the soul" makes people see the younger generation kneeling in front of the soul of the deceased, holding the money high above their heads with both hands and dutifully presenting it.

The inscription seems to be a list of names of future generations, but it is not simple. A man's spouse can only write his surname, even if he has a famous surname. Unmarried daughters and granddaughters can write their names, but they can't write any more when they are married.

Question 2: Why do people burn paper at the crossroads during the Mid-Autumn Festival? The Mid-Autumn Festival on July 15th is called Ghost Festival.

In fact, from the first day of the seventh lunar month to the 30th of July, the gate of hell is wide open. According to folklore, there will be many ghosts wandering among the undead during this period.

Mid-Autumn Festival is a day that China people attach great importance to. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, there are many grand ceremonies to worship Purdue.

This Ghost Festival is also the largest and most expensive festival in China.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is also the "Magnolia Festival" of Buddhism. The story about Yulan Festival has been circulated among the people. In other words, Liu Qingjie, Manglietia's mother, was sent to hell.

Mulian used her magical powers to see his mother fall into evil ways, with a big stomach and a small throat, unable to eat and very hungry. Seeing this, he took the rice to feed his mother, but as soon as it was imported, it burned to ashes.

Mu Lian was very sad. She asked Sakyamuni for help. Sakyamuni told him that his mother's sin was too deep, and all kinds of tastes should be listed in the pot and offered to all monks to relieve his mother's suffering.

Finally, he helped his mother get rid of the pain of hanging upside down. Therefore, future generations should remember that on July 15 every year, a pot of Buddha and monk should be used to repay the kindness of their parents.

China society will begin to worship this month, and some places will hold Purdue Bye-bye. Besides the Lunar New Year, Magnolia Festival is the second largest festival in China.

On the Ghost Festival in July, you can easily see the altars in the open space and the temples in the streets. Some big sacrifices will be offered to worship the ghost king. The Ghost King, also known as Purdue King, is said to be the embodiment of Guanyin.

Different regions have different ways of worship. Private worship is a personal worship at home. Pu Jie is a day of personality cult. Shipu is a big dupu with the market as the main body.

On July 30, the gate of hell closed, and the month-long Central Plains ended like this.

China Han folk traditional religious festival, in the lunar calendar on July 15th, or July 14th. Also known as "Kasahara Festival", commonly known as "Ghost Festival".

As for the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival, according to textual research, it originated from Taoist belief. According to Taoist legend, there are three gods in charge of the fate of the world: heaven litigation to bless, earth litigation to forgive evil, and water litigation to solve danger. On the day when the three officials descended to earth, the fifteenth day of the first month was Tianguan, which was Shangyuan Festival. July 15 is the local official, which is the Mid-Autumn Festival. 1October 15 is the water official, which is the next yuan festival. Because local officials descend to earth on the Mid-Yuan Festival to judge good and evil on earth, it is easier for Taoist priests to do Dojo and do good deeds on this day in order to relieve the evil of guilty ghosts.

After the Han Dynasty, Buddhism was introduced into China. In order to publicize the doctrine of reincarnation of the Sixth World, Buddhist disciples created a mythical story of Manglietia to save her mother. According to the Orchid Sutra, a disciple of Buddha Sakyamuni, Mulian, saw his mother's criminal career in Shi Yang and wandered in the underworld, suffering all kinds of torture. My eyes are very painful. Please ask the Buddha for help. Sakyamuni told him to prepare Baiwei Zhai to support ten monks on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month to relieve his mother's pain. This Buddhist ceremony is called "fasting in the bone" or "fasting in the bone". "Yulanben" is a transliteration of Sanskrit, which means "saving the upside down". Since then, the Mid-Autumn Festival has been integrated with Buddhist ideas and has become a folk religious festival where Buddhism and Taoism meet.

The center of festival activities is mourning ancestors and offering sacrifices to the dead. At that time, Taoist temples around the country will chant scriptures day and night and fast; All monasteries put a "flame mouth", build a bowl and basin meeting, and put lotus lanterns in the water at night. Ordinary people use new rice, new sauce, dark clothes and seasonal melons and fruits as sacrifices to worship their ancestors and burn paper on graves.

In festivals, the most prominent folk belief behavior of the Han nationality is burning paper. According to superstition and legend, the paper of the dead is the money of the underworld, and people burn paper to give money to their dead ancestors. Usually, when burning paper in front of the grave, a few copies are left and burned at the crossroads, in order to give some alms to homeless wild ghosts so that they will not rob the money given by their ancestors. As for why paper is burned as money, there is also a funny legend among the Han people. Cai Lun invented papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Brother Cai Mo, with the encouragement of sister-in-law Hui Niang, asked his brother to learn papermaking. But Cai Mo was so eager to make money that he hurried home to start business before he learned the technology. As a result, the quality of his paper was so poor that no one cared. Hui Niang suffered for four long hours and gave birth to a plan in her heart. Late one night, Cai Mo burst into tears and alarmed her neighbors. He said that Huiniang hanged herself after a quarrel between husband and wife because of papermaking. The next day, July 15th, Cai Mo pretended to be sad and contrite, cried and burned paper. When Hui Niang woke up, they were comforting. She told everyone that she was able to come back to life because Yan accepted the money from Cai Mo and put it back in people's clothes.

Ten tricks to prevent ghosts

Please don't burn paper money (TOP 10- 1)

Classification: the road of spiritual media

Over the past year or so, I have changed from a formal professional psychic to a free consultant, so there are always elders and friends who care about me to ask me this question. It was because many people asked me questions and answered the same questions. Plus, if I answer the same question every time, I will be disappointed in myself-because I feel very uninspired, I specially wrote a blog to let everyone choose the reference answer according to their own needs. So if someone asks me a question recently, please read it before asking, ok? 」

I have done a self-examination recently, because on the one hand, people complain that they have written too many words, and often forget everything after reading them. On the other hand, my writing is so humanized that people can't find the key words they need. Based on social responsibility, if I think of TOP 10, people's favorite problems or things that need most attention, I would like to share them with you here.

First of all, what I want to appeal to most is-"Don't burn paper money! ! 」

Let's retell this thread a little: In my experience, one of the favorite foods for ghosts (elves) in the world is "charcoal", that is, the ashes after burning, which is their most delicious food. To be honest, I don't know how they eat. Just as I don't know how plants absorb nutrients through photosynthesis, I just love to eat. I can only say that I know too little, and there is too much wisdom in the world that many of us human beings can't see. Maybe one day we will have the wisdom to understand?

In the general Dojo, paper money plays a very important role, because when psychics do things to help believers, they often use paper money as a bargaining chip to bribe them to leave-and this is a temporary leave. On the other hand, if you are possessed by someone, that person will take you to a place to "collect money". The only condition for accepting the money is that you have to go out for a walk. Anyway, if you run out of money, you can get it by possessing it! Alas ~ I hope to find such a person to possess me ... So many shrines in the workshop simply "exchange paper money for paper money" with you! Well earned, ............ I sometimes want to issue Berber banknotes: red represents longevity, black represents evil spirits, green represents health, yellow represents wealth, white represents practice, and purple represents love ... infant spirits must recognize the pattern of children and filial piety. Can be purchased according to personal needs, collect ten laser anti-counterfeiting labels, and participate in "long life without borders, happiness falls from the sky."

In the past, when I went to help others with funerals, I often saw my family burning large and small silver paper. Just put them in front of the mourning hall and burn them in a small iron basin. I think this action has two effects: 1 Maintaining the warmth of the mourning hall, you know ~ in fact, it will be very cold at night, and burning paper money to keep warm will not catch a cold; 2. Keep your body adjusted, you know ~ It will be sour to fold lotus ingots all day, and changing shifts to burn paper money can keep everyone strong. Besides, I really don't know who to burn these things to. What's the use?

Now is the time to be serious. As mentioned earlier, the disadvantage of burning paper money is that it is easy to provoke ghosts (elves). Anyway, you have food here! This is the same as feeding stray dogs. Don't say that you are possessed by him because of love. How can I help you and harm you? Of course, it is wrong for him to harm you, but it is up to future generations to judge whether it is right or wrong. You invited him. How can you blame him for not leaving? Also, do you think he should repay you for burning paper? Don't you want to use them and expect their feedback ... >>

Question 4: It is our custom in China to burn paper and money for ghosts in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Not in Buddhism. Look at Buddhist scriptures. Burning paper has no money. Someone asked the master of printing light before, and the answer of the master of printing light was very pertinent to me. He said that we don't approve of burning paper money. Why don't you agree? Because it is not in the Buddhist scriptures, we are disciples of Buddhism and should follow the teachings. But I don't object either. Why not? If a person dies, the six divisions in the wheel of karma, do you know where he goes? He can't get it by any other means, and it's useless. It's only useful if he goes to Hungry Ghost Road. So if this person really walks into the hungry ghost road and his family wants to burn paper money for him, you are not cutting off people's money! So I have no objection. Neither approve nor oppose, holding such an attitude.

As for burning more and burning less, that's your own business. It is not easy for you to make him a millionaire. Why is it not easy? Just look at us people in the world. His parents worked hard to leave him a lot of property, but in less than two or three years, he lost everything, which shows whether he can become a rich man or a ghost, and he was trained in his last life. He didn't have a reason in his last life, and it's hard to keep it. We should understand these truths.
