Wei Zi Road Dinner

The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from Taoism, calling the three elements that make up everything in the world ternary, and some people will definitely say that they are heaven and earth. Don't! Heaven and earth people's point of view is because "human beings law the earth, the earth law the heaven, the heaven law the Tao, and the Tao law is natural." But the Taoist ternary view is not like heaven and earth, but heaven and earth and water. This sentence well proves that what we are talking about now is the source of life.

Mid-Autumn Festival corresponds to Qing Xu the Great, the Taoist priest in charge of the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is said that his birthday is July 15. Shangyuan Festival, the Lantern Festival, corresponds to the birthday of Emperor Wei Zi, the heavenly official.

The next Yuan Festival corresponds to 10 15, the birthday of Emperor Dong Yin, a water official. Blessed is the Emperor Wei Zi, the Emperor Qingxu has been exempted from sin, and the Emperor Dongyin has been freed from Eritrea. In the legend of Mid-Autumn Festival, Qing Xu's emperor Hewlett-Packard spent his dead soul, so ancestors could go home for reunion, so people lit river lanterns on graves to guide the way home.

Mid-Autumn Festival is called Bonihara Festival in Buddhism. It is said that the mother of Mu Lianzun, a disciple of Buddha, suffered in hell. Zuzun used divine power to send food to his mother, and the result turned directly into charcoal. Venerable Buddha asks for advice. The Buddha said that the mother of the Venerable Master was too sinful and must rely on the joint efforts of ten monks. Later, the act of honoring the venerable and saving the mother gradually evolved into the Orchid Festival.

Mid-Autumn Festival is called sheep sending festival in Confucianism, which means "auspicious" for sheep. Later, it evolved into a steamed bread in the shape of sending sheep. The custom of integrating Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism in the Mid-Autumn Festival has gradually evolved into a festival to worship ancestors, send "auspicious" and promote filial piety. The Mid-Autumn Festival has also become a festival for family reunion and sitting around the dining table for dinner.

The Mid-Autumn Festival broke our understanding of "heaven, earth and people". Besides offering sacrifices to ancestors, we should also send sheep.
