How to invite the god of wealth correctly

Correctly understanding the God of Wealth has always been one of the most popular gods in China, and Guanyin and God of Wealth are the most admired gods of the general public. Avalokitesvara is the most effective bodhisattva in people's minds, so everyone will turn to Avalokitesvara for help when they encounter something unsatisfactory. On the basis of a safe, healthy and smooth life, people's greatest hope is to make a fortune and improve their living conditions. Therefore, the god of wealth has naturally become one of the most popular gods, keeping pace with avalokitesvara. Although the world worships Guanyin Bodhisattva and the God of Wealth, I find that people know little about the worship of these two gods and there are many misunderstandings. Because tomorrow is the birthday of the legendary god of wealth, I will talk about Guanyin Bodhisattva in detail another day. If you are interested, you can search for "Shao" on Sina Weibo and pay attention to it. I'll talk about it today, so that you can really play the role of gathering money and making money. Since you want to invite the god of wealth, you must first have an understanding of the god of wealth. In fact, there is not only one god of wealth we are talking about now. Strictly speaking, both Buddhism and Taoism have the god of wealth. Because most people worship the Taoist god of wealth, I will only talk about the Taoist god of wealth here today. The Taoist God of Wealth is divided into Wen God of Wealth and Wen God of Wealth is divided into two parts, as follows. 1. the god of wealth 1. Caixin Hangjun: Caixin Hangjun is an official wearing brocade, with a jade belt around his waist, a gold ingot in his left hand and a scroll with the words "Lucky for Money" in his right hand. He looks heavy, sitting or standing. He is an official with unlimited wealth. Legend has it that he is the Taibai Venus under the jade emperor's account and belongs to the golden god. In heaven, the title is "Heavenly Prosperity, Prosperity and Star King", which is in charge of all the gold and silver wealth in the world. He looks peaceful and responsive, and he is most willing to help kind men and women. He is the favorite god of wealth worshipped by the public, and the vast majority of the gods worshipped by the general public are Caixingjun. 2, Fu Lushou Samsung: "Fuxing" holds the child, symbolizing the blessing of having everything; "Luxing" wears luxurious royal costumes and holds jade, symbolizing the promotion and wealth of officials and nobles; "Shouxing" holds a peach with a happy and peaceful smile, symbolizing Ankang and longevity. Strictly speaking, Fu Lushou Samsung belongs to the Western God, not the real God of Wealth. If it must be related to wealth, only "Lu Xing" can make sense. However, many people in the folk like to put them together for worship, which together means blessing, wealth, longevity, wealth and happiness to show good luck. In addition, there was a legend later, that wealth stars only helped the rich and the poor asked for nothing. They also used the story of the God of Wealth divorcing his wife to point the finger at the Fortune Star, which led many people suffering from common diseases to offer blessings, wealth and longevity. Of course, the story about the divorce of the God of Wealth and his wife should be fabricated, but many civil servants and staff in enterprises and institutions earn money by working for others, especially as clerks. It is said that white-collar workers can be promoted and made rich by offering sacrifices to Fu Lushou's Samsung, raising their wages and increasing their income. Legend has it that this is mainly due to the role of land travel. Of course, because Samsung is usually a trinity, the lucky star and the birthday girl are worshipped together and considered to be. Second, Wu Caishen 1, Zhao Gongming: If you know Zhao Gongming, the greatest possibility is the novel The List of Gods. Therefore, novel and film communication is actually one of the best ways to spread and carry forward traditional culture. During my tenure in a film and television company in Zhejiang, I have been considering planning a large-scale program related to traditional culture, hoping that more traditional culture lovers can join the ranks of spreading and promoting traditional culture. Interested friends can follow my Sina Weibo "Shao Yi". Off-topic, according to the list of gods, the god of wealth, surnamed, was originally a monk in Luofu Cave, Emei Mountain. After his death, he was named "the God of the True Dragon and Tiger King Tan Xuan", and was in charge of "auspicious Buddha", "auspicious messenger" and "Lishi Xian Guan". Of course, this is a novel record. In fact, according to Taoist records, Zhao Gongming was originally from Zhong Nanshan. Since Qin dynasty, he has lived in seclusion in the mountains and studied Taoism. After his success, the Jade Emperor named him "Marshal of Justice Tan Xuan" or "Zhao Xuantan" for short. He looks fierce, with a thick beard on his face, bulging eyes, wearing an iron crown, holding a Strafe in one hand and an ingot in the other, with a black beard across his body, so he is also called "Black Hu Tan Xuan". Legend has it that Marshal Zhao Gong is in charge of eliminating plague and abuse, driving away diseases and disasters, and whenever there is injustice and it is difficult to do justice, he will uphold justice; People buy and sell for money, he can make it profitable. His original position was not a full-time god of wealth, but it should make people profitable. No one else can replace him, so he is respected by businessmen and regarded as a god of wealth. Because full-time job is profitable, he was assigned to Wu Caishen, which means lucky. 2. Guan Gong: Guan Gong, formerly known as Guan Yu, was a famous soldier in the Three Kingdoms period. Anyone who has read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms knows that he is one of the protagonists of this novel. Many people are curious. At first, I was also curious. Guan Gong once became Wu Caishen, why did he become Wu Caishen, and why did he have the function of gathering wealth? The reason why I solved this problem for the first time was the bronze statue of Wu Caishen in the home of a friend who collects antiques. He said it was bought by descendants of Shanxi merchants, and it was a real family heirloom. So, can it be said that Guan Gong has become Wu Caishen since the heyday of Shanxi merchants? I looked up the relevant historical materials, and after analysis, it was the Shanxi merchants who first began to worship Guan Gong. In today's society, businessmen (rich people) are highly respected, but in ancient times, the status of businessmen was quite low. Apart from the reason that China valued agriculture over commerce since ancient times, more importantly, due to the social reasons at that time, the image of businessmen was very poor, and businessmen were the most vivid description. I think one of the most important reasons for studying why Shanxi merchants crossed two dynasties for more than 500 years from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty and galloped in China's commercial and financial industry with an irresistible trend is their spiritual belief and communication. Nowadays, many people like to put aside their religious beliefs when studying history and culture. In fact, the history and culture of China is Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and it is not the real truth without it. Closer to home, Confucianism was respected at that time, and Confucius said, "A gentleman wants righteousness, while a villain wants profit." Lao Kong's words suddenly classified the profit-seeking businessman as a villain, and in order to save the businessman's non-villain image, Shanxi merchants put forward the purpose of taking profit as righteousness, protecting righteousness first, and then taking profit, and worshipped Guan Gong, a loyal minister who is most familiar with the people, with worship belief. Moreover, Guandi Temple was built in the place where Shanxi merchants gathered all over the country. Therefore, we will find that the Guandi temples all over the country were built in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and were actually made by Shanxi merchants. Therefore, Guan Gong was the first god of spiritual belief who used Guan Gong's reputation of "righteousness" to change the image of Shanxi merchants in order to achieve the purpose of "changing righteousness and interests". Of course, the reason why Shanxi merchants can develop for more than 500 years is that they respect and believe in Guan Gong's benevolence and righteousness, abide by the purpose of beggar-thy-neighbor, and effectively "brainwash and spread" people's baixin. It should be said that Guan Gong was worshipped as a warrior at the earliest, and he was the image spokesman of "sincerity" of Shanxi merchants. The childish figure regarded as Wu Caishen should have started in the Qing Dynasty. I have seen a print of Guan Gong in Qing Dynasty, which smacks of God of Wealth. Those who are interested can make their own textual research. I think that Wu Caishen's real honor should still be in modern times. I found that Guan Gong's belief came from Southeast Asia, Hongkong, Taiwan Province and other places after the reform and opening up. The original disseminators should be descendants of Shanxi merchants who went out during the period from the Republic of China to the founding of New China. Guan Yu was honored as Wu Caishen because he was the patron saint of businessmen with a long history. At the same time, his red face, long beard and mighty image match Zhao Gongming's, and he also has the artistic conception of taking money from customers with a long knife. In a mercenary modern society, it is normal for Guan Yu to turn to the image of Wu Caishen. The four people mentioned above are the true gods of the god of wealth. In Taoism, the god of wealth is partial to the god of wealth, and the god of wealth is partial to the god of wealth. I will elaborate on the god of wealth. Now that we know the basic situation of the God of Wealth, we can invite the God of Wealth according to our personal situation. To do business, the store should invite Wu Caishen, catering and other service industries, and it is best to invite Guan Gong, advertising companies and other commercial industries to invite Zhao Gongming; Of course, it is best for business families to invite the God of Wealth, the God of Wealth and the God of Wealth, and even Fu Lushou, while the working class and officials should invite Fu Lushou. As for how to invite, when to invite, where to put it, how to open the light, taboos and other related content, take time to write another day!
