Mom died, and I have finished my work. I miss her very much. I want to prepare for the top seven. Please ask what the first seven procedures are and what you need to pay attention to.

Do the first seven procedures well: prepare a big meal for the soul of the deceased, and then you must avoid it. The best way is to sleep. If you can't sleep, you should hide in bed. If the soul of the deceased sees his family, it will make him miss and affect his reincarnation.

It is also said that when you go home on the seventh day, your family should burn a ladder-like thing at home and let your soul follow this ladder to heaven. From "Biography of Northern History Hu Guozhen": "Although Guo Zhen is old, he is elegant in Buddhism", "From July 7th to July 7th, he set up a thousand monks' fasting"; Sun's Biography of the Northern Qi Dynasty: "Since the death of Ge (Nanyang King), monks have been invited to set a fast for Ge every seven days and one hundred days. "

Extended data:

From the date of the death of the deceased, the funeral home will hold a paper burning memorial every seven days, * * * seven times, commonly known as "burning seven times". Generally speaking, "March 7" and "May 7" are more important, and relatives and friends should also send some paper and candles. There is also a ceremony of "exorcising evil spirits" (also known as "returning disasters"). According to the old custom, the soul still exists after death. 7749 days ago, the ghost of the deceased wanted to go home once, and the specific time was calculated by the Taoist priest.

At that time, the funeral home will arrange incense and wine, and lay a layer of charcoal ash or plant ash on the floor to test the footprints of the deceased. With a bamboo pole and a sticker on each foot, stand on the doorstep or insert it under the eaves of dead people. It is said that ghosts will enter the house when they see this. Put a boiled egg in the clay pot in the corner of the house to bribe the disaster god (commonly known as chicken feet) and let the ghost of the deceased stay at home for a while.
