Q: What are the procedures for the master's ceremony?

The traditional ceremony is usually completed by the master and the apprentice, and sometimes the novice apprentice and the master's mother will also attend together.

The master's ritual process is as follows:

1. Worship one's ancestors, that is, to protect the gods, to pray for the blessing of one's ancestors, and at the same time to show respect for one's ancestors and piety.

2. Appreciate the teacher. Generally, the master and the hostess sit in the main position, and the disciples who need to be apprenticed give them three heads, and then present and post them to the teacher. Some customs also offer tea to the host.

3. Master speaks, telling new disciples the rules of the door, naming names, etc. The content of the speech is generally to educate disciples to respect their ancestors, abide by rules and regulations, and encourage them to be honest and clean and study hard.

Extended data:

1, the traditional mentoring relationship is second only to the father-son relationship, that is, "give birth to my parents, teach my teachers" and "be a teacher as a model". Some industries, as soon as they enter the school, are all under the control of the master. Parents have no right to interfere or even meet. The establishment of such an important relationship naturally needs to be confirmed and protected through grand customs and ceremonies.

2. Gifts given to Master by ancient disciples when they were apprentices:

1, celery (meaning studious and diligent).

2. Lotus seeds (lotus seeds are bitter, indicating Master's painstaking teaching).

3, red beans (meaning red clouds shining).

4, red dates (meaning early birth).

5. longan (meaning complete merit).

6. Dried lean meat strips.
