What items need lighting to use?

According to different religions, there are different items that need to be lit. For example, in Buddhism, the Buddha statue must be illuminated, and the icon, prayer wheel, prayer beads and some common protective articles of the Buddha statue also need to be illuminated before use. There are many things that need lighting in Taoism, and many things that need to be used can be used for lighting, plus all kinds of gossip, compasses, pagodas, beasts, wind chimes, incense burners and so on.

How to turn on the light

Buddhism opens the light: Buddhism does not open the light originally, but there is a ceremony to pray for Buddha statues, which is similar to opening the light. Up to now, it's called opening the light. Buddhists' enlightenment is to open the door to wisdom. For example, offering sacrifices to Buddha and Bodhisattva is to invite them to appear in the icon. This kind of invitation can't be done in a day or two. Only a long-term invitation will be effective. Therefore, it is necessary to sincerely offer sacrifices for a period of time before being invited.

Taoist opening: Taoist opening is more complicated. You have to dip in the altar and draw spells before you can recite them. But the opening time is relatively short. Generally, the opening time of this altar will not exceed one day, even if the altar is over, the opening is over.

Folk lighting: Generally, folk Yin and Yang teachers are required to follow strict procedures and rituals, that is, clearing, loading, lighting and energizing, with good results. If you are a psychic or sensitive person, you may smell a faint smell of sandalwood.

How to distinguish between true and false

Then how can we ordinary people tell the difference between true and false? The most direct way is to issue the official seal or special seal of the regular temple opening and the "opening certificate" printed by Sambo. If not, you can ask a few questions:

1. Where will the opening ceremony be held? Which mage presided over it?

2. Is there a business opening certificate stamped with the temple seal?

3. Can I ask the temple for verification?

4. Can I go to the opening ceremony?

Fake business opening certificates popular in the market:

(1) shoddy, wholesale market.

(2) There is no introduction on the certificate, only the words "Chinese Buddhist Association". Is it possible for the Chinese Buddhist Association to participate in the printing of the opening certificate? The authenticity can be imagined.

(3) The certificate has no seal, or is stamped with "Three Treasures of Fo Yin", but the seal is rough and solemn.

(4) The certificate has no official seal of the temple and cannot be verified. Some have seals, but the seals are suspected to be made by themselves. For example, we found a certificate named "Master" with the seal of "* * Pavilion" on it. In fact, the "* * Pavilion" is actually the name of the store, and the "* * Master" is also an employee of the store. The shopkeeper made his friends think that "Master" was a monk and "Museum" was a Buddhist or Taoist Dojo. Buddhist monks are generally regarded as "mages" and "great monks", and masters are mostly regarded as buddhas. Therefore, except for a few eminent monks who have made great contributions, living wizards are rarely regarded as masters.

(5) Most online stores refuse to even buy at home, let alone attend the opening ceremony. Don't be deceived.
