Zhongyuan Festival ghosts send sorrow

Where is the most popular summer during the summer? I am afraid that everyone is obvious to all? It is said that one third is by the sea, one -third of them go to Xinjiang, and one third has visited Yunnan. The guy watched the shoulder and the crowds, and it was not an exaggeration at all. Most of the go to Yunnan will go to Lijiang. No matter whether it is commercial, someone is always attracted by it. If you have been in Lijiang for the past two days, you may regret the torch festival that you just missed, but coincidentally, you can feel the Naxi "Three Beauty Waves". This is a grand festival that the Naxi people treat. The theme of the festival is ancestral worship. From the day of July to July 15th of the lunar calendar, we took the ancestors home to send ancestral home. Flowers, eggplant, and bacteria are essential. Taro flower is a crutch, eggplant is ferry, and the fungus is an umbrella. After the sacrifice, all the supplies will be placed in the river, and the river lights are also placed in the river. Among them, I miss and hope.

Putting river lights is also one of the most important activities for people in the ancient and Yuan Festival in ancient times. Our ancient dull emperor Qianlong's poems about the Chinese Yuan Festival rewarded the river lanterns a lot:

"Full lake stars are cold and cold, 10,000 golden lotus knows all night"

"The Cangchi 鲜 鲜“ ““ “臾 臾 臾 臾“ ““ ““ ““ "

"Just cherish the defeat of Qiuhu Lake, Jinlian Wan Duo Shi Shi Shu"

Most of the river lights seen by Qianlong are lotus lanterns. Why is it lotus? I think it is probably because of July 15th. In Taoism, it is the Chinese Yuan Festival, the Buddhist is the Bon Festival in Buddhism. In the world, Taoism and Buddhism integration have become a holiday on earth. Said, "Sheng songs are noisy every night, and the incense car will be rotten. The river lights are full of flying stars, and the Zhongyuan should be changed to the Yuan Dynasty."

Shangyuan Zhongyuan, the Yuan Dynasty, is Taoism, Taoism, "three officials", and officials and water officials. Each official has its own belongings, and each is responsible for one side. "The first month, July, and October's hopes as three yuan, then the beginning of the Yuan and Wei", the Yuan and Wei dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties. On the fifteenth day of the first month, the officials were blessed; It really arranges all things in the world clearly. The official official is not the sin of people, but the sin of hungry ghosts. "The official officers of the Chinese Yuan Dynasty fell, and the good and evil in the world were settled, and the Taoist priests recited the scriptures day and night, and the hungry ghost prisoner was relieved" ("Practice").

As far as Buddhism is concerned, July 15th is the Obon Festival, and the legend is related to the disciples of Shakyamuni. Like the Tibetan Bodhisattva, Mu Lian is also a filial son. In order to save the hunger and pain of the evil mother from hell, he prayed to the Buddha, and the Buddha pointed out. The strange flowers and thousands of consequences support the ten monks to rescue her mother. Mu Lian's mother finally comes out of the wicked sea of ​​evil.

Regardless of the Buddhist Tao, if the doctrine is limited to the Taoist temple, it is too much over the spring of the sun, and only the world can carry forward. In terms of the vulgar world, the ancestral sacrifice ghosts are also in the bustling world of hooks. Not only the Yuan Dynasty and the Zhongyuan Festival, even the next Yuan Festival that we have forgotten long ago is a big day in ancient China. In the Tang Dynasty, the Zhongyuan Festival was already a small holiday. In the Song Dynasty, officials could take 7 days in the Shangyuan Festival, and they could take 3 days on each vacation in the Zhongyuan Festival and the lower Yuan Festival. The imagination was very cool.

"Tokyo Menghua Record" described us at the time of the Chinese Yuan Festival at that time: "July 15th, Zhongyuan Festival. For several days, the market sells underworld boots, hoe hats, gold rhinoceros, and colorful. Clothing, the paper paste is sold out. Panlou and the states are also like Qixi Festival. You must sell fruits, foods, and fruits, and print the "Sutra Sutra". , Three or five feet high, the shape of the woven lamp nest, is called the Menglan pot. Hanging clothes and money burning it on it.

"Look at the prosperous scene of this faction, burning paper to sacrifice the ancestors, ghosts and gods, and eating, drinking, playing, and watching, and more lively than Qixi Festival.

As for the Song Dynasty's south movement, "Mengliang Lu" records the Zhongyuan Festival at that time. Regardless of the monks and vulgar people, in the palace and outside the palace, they should eat and drink. Luzhou ": On July 15th, a natural and small monk's temple set up fasting, which is called" the day of the year ". After the self -decomposition, the Zen and the monk and nuns are not restricted by the fake orders, or the feet, or returning to the karma. The day is worth the governor of the Yuan Dynasty officials, and the palaces have set up Pudu to sacrifice with Shi Xun. Those who have a strong family who are strong in their families, set up a rice monk at home to recommend mourning, or pull out the lonely soul. The monk temple also built the Yulan pots on this day, and led the main money and recommended it. The home sells underworld clothes, and there are also selling bronze, oil cakes, sour stuffing, sand filling, milk cakes, and cakes. Those who sell Mi Valley to sacrifice their ancestors to predict the meaning of autumn. The chicken crown flower supports the ancestor, which is called "hand washing flowers". People in the capital of the city on this day have the worshipers or worshiped by the grave. The ban on the cars and horses came out of the palace in order to do the gift of Chaoling. And the princess and other grave worships are enjoyed. Give money in the back hall, and the waiter was sent to Longshan to release the river lanterns. The official officials of the state government set up a dendrobium on the Zhejiang Taxation Department to enjoy the sea ghosts and gods. In the month, there is a lot of Gua pear pear jujube, and the chicken head also has a number of products. In the middle of China, most of them bought the ban in the stream of golden boxes. For example, those who are in the house of Zhaoshe City are wrapped in Xiaoxin lotus leaves, mixed with musk, and tied them with red small cables.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Zhongyuan Festival was still lively. In this record in "Emperor Jing Scenery · Spring Spring": "On July 15, the temples were built in the pimple, and the lights were put in the water at night. . When the grave is clear, or in the past, the sacrifice of the sacrifice and the second time the tomb was pushed out, the bag was full of joy, and the stuns were attributed. "

During the Qianlong reign, Pan Rong and Hisbal wrote a copy of "Emperor Jing Ji Sheng" with his own seeing, which recorded the scene of the Chinese Yuan Festival at the time: "Every year, China Yuan Jianyulan Dojo, since the 13th On the 15th, the river lights were released, so that the small internal supervisor held the lotus leaves and burned the candle, listed the two sides of the strait, with thousands of calculations.

The group, traveling under the light of Tianjie Jingtan, the famous door lantern festival, even more return. "

In this way, a serious festival of Buddhism from Wei, Jin to the Tang Dynasty gradually became a great carnival of the whole people, which lasted for thousands of years until today. It is just that today's Shangyuan Festival has long been without the hustle and bustle of the time. In addition to burning some money, sending sorrows and retreating lonely souls, the river lights of the stars like flowing fires are rushing. Xiao Hong wrote in "The Biography of the Hulan River": "July 15th is a ghost festival. The dead soul of the dead must not be trusted. With a river lamp, you have to support it. "

For a ghost, people can be relieved.
