Is there any taboo in reading incense and telling fortune? Can I go during menstruation?

Is there any taboo in reading incense and telling fortune? Can I go during menstruation? It is said that women are not allowed to enter Buddhist temples during menstruation, and can't give incense to the Buddha. They think that menstrual blood is dirty and will collide with buddhas and bodhisattvas. Can you do it or not? At the end of today, I'll answer this question for you.

This is actually a superstitious statement. In the early days of primitive society, people only knew that menstrual blood was also blood, but they couldn't figure out the principle. Although it will bleed for a few days every month, it will not get sick, so people feel very mysterious and feel that menstrual blood is magical. On the one hand, blood gives life and is a symbol of life. People worship blood very much, so the ancients vowed to use blood when they formed an alliance. This is called saving blood. On the other hand, in war or injury, blood is a symbol of death and pain, and people are afraid. Therefore, the ancient people's psychology of seeing blood is very complicated. Women's menstrual blood is generally considered as an unclean and ominous sign. When women are menstruating, they should try to avoid it, which also brings many taboos.

Later, Buddhism was introduced to China, and many people used this taboo to burn incense and worship Buddha. They think that women who burn incense and worship Buddha during menstruation are disrespectful to Buddha and will collide with Buddha and Bodhisattva. In fact, this is because I don't understand Buddhism at all and look at Buddhism with a secular mind. The Buddha has long seen through birth, illness and death, and told us that life is impermanent. How can we avoid a woman's menstrual blood because of a normal physiological phenomenon? The most important thing is sincerity and respect. What does a normal physiological phenomenon have to do with it? Buddha is merciful and obedient to all beings. Can anyone be blamed for normal physiological phenomena?

In addition, incense, chanting Buddha and chanting are compulsory courses every day and need to be persevered. Even out of respect for buddhas and bodhisattvas, giving up classes because of this physiological phenomenon is not a loss of a penny, but a loss of a catty.

On this issue, a great monk in modern times, the thirteenth ancestor of Jing Zong, the master of printing light, has made many expositions to refute this heretical thought. In the book "The Banknotes of the Master of Printing Light", he said this:

"Women from 12 to 4089 have menstruation. There is a saying that when you come to menstruation, don't worship or recite, which makes no sense. Short menstruation will stop in two or three days, and the elderly will stop in six or seven days. A man of practice must have a heart in mind. How can he give up practice because of his natural ailment? When you come to menstruation today, you can worship less, (it is appropriate to be less polite, not never polite), and recite the Buddha and the scriptures as usual. It is recommended to change dirty cloth frequently. If you touch dirty cloth, clean it immediately. Don't touch your dirty hands, turn over the scriptures and burn incense. Buddhism, Buddhism, Buddhism, Buddhism, Buddhism, Buddhism, Buddhism. Many people in the world only believe in the words of outsiders and don't know the truth of Buddhism, so the whole people can't share the benefits of Buddhism. "

From this point of view, this view was also very popular at that time, so the master of printing light will repeatedly identify this matter and put this beginning in "one letter after another".

Therefore, even during the physiological period, female lay brothers can go to the temple to worship Buddha, recite Buddha and chant Buddhist scriptures with confidence, and they can worship less, but there is no way. Change your clothes before you burn incense. You can't stop worshipping Buddha just because you are menstruating. As for chanting Buddha's name and chanting, it can be carried out as usual. If you touch dirty cloth, wash your hands first, and don't touch Buddhist scriptures and incense with unclean hands. This really needs attention. Why should we pay attention to these?
