What should we pay attention to when paying homage to the deceased?

1. Why is Tomb-Sweeping Day important?

Qingming is an activity of offering sacrifices to the dead. Tomb-Sweeping Day is very important. Du Mu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote the poem Qingming Festival: There are many rains during Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls. Ask local people where to buy wine? The shepherd boy just laughed and didn't answer Xingshan Village. Write about the special atmosphere in Tomb-Sweeping Day. In China, ancestor worship is associated with filial piety. If you don't participate in ancestor worship, you are unfilial and forget your ancestors.

Qingming Festival refers to sweeping graves. Many cemeteries in Jiangnan and Jiangnan are on mountains, so they are called Chongshan. In the north, it is commonly known as sweeping graves or going to graves.

2. Is there any ethnic division in sweeping graves in Tomb-Sweeping Day?

Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping, called ancestor worship, is the day of China's ancestor worship. Therefore, most Han people and some ethnic minorities in China visit graves in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Some ethnic groups will hold similar activities on other days.

3. What is the usual procedure of offering sacrifices to mountains in Tomb-Sweeping Day?

According to the custom, the order of sweeping is to sweep the grave first, that is, to clean the cemetery.

Secondly, sacrifice, this procedure is very important, one is to mourn, and the other is to feel the same way with the ancestors, because the mountain has a spirit without a master, and the ancestors have a master without a spirit. Only by feeling the same way with the ancestors can we better obtain the aura of mountains and rivers. This is feng shui.

When sweeping graves, people come to the cemetery with food, wine, fruit, paper money and other items, offer food to the graves of their loved ones, then burn paper money, cultivate new soil for the graves, repair the graves, fold some fresh green branches and put some paper money on them to show that there are descendants in the graves, and then kowtow. Then sit around and eat and drink; You can also fly kites and even compete with each other for related activities. Women and children will also fold some Yang Liuzhi nearby and put on steamed food with wicker. Others put wicker into a reed ring and put it on their heads, saying that dogs will turn yellow in the afterlife if they don't wear willow in Qingming Festival.

That is, there are incense, meat, toast, sacrifices and farewell shots in the cemetery.

4. Is it better to sacrifice the mountain in Tomb-Sweeping Day as early as possible?

No, according to your own situation, it is at 5-7 o'clock, which is Shi Mao. In the ancient calendar, it was one. Of course, it is generally not so early now, but Dr. Zheng reminded his friends to end the Qingming Festival before 3 pm, because the yang has gradually subsided and the yin is gradually flourishing. If people are unlucky, they are easily entangled or disturbed by evil spirits.

5. Can pregnant women in Tomb-Sweeping Day go to worship the mountain?

Generally speaking, pregnant women should avoid the Qingming Festival, not only that. Strictly speaking, women should not take part in such activities when they have their holidays, especially after 3 pm.

6. Can Tomb-Sweeping Day worship his ancestors at home?

Tomb-Sweeping Day should have been held in the cemetery in person, but for various reasons, many people can't go back to their hometown to attend the Qingming Festival, so they can also worship their ancestors at home. The method is to put worship food on the balcony or living room at home, face the hometown, light three sticks of incense, bow three times and meditate on related words. Then, burn paper money for sacrifice.

On the morning of sweeping the grave, before washing, look at your forehead in the mirror to see if there are dark circles under your eyes. If there is, it means you are unlucky. It is recommended to avoid sweeping graves as much as possible. If you must go, you can wear jade, mahogany and so on. Work it out with you.

9. Do you need to fast before sweeping the grave?

Fasting before sweeping the grave: When sweeping the grave, don't eat vegetables, be vegetarian and dress neatly to show courtesy and respect to your ancestors. Dr. Zheng thinks this one is very important, but some friends may need to be wronged.

10. Why do you need to give incense to the land of mountain gods when sweeping graves?

When sweeping graves, in addition to placing incense sticks, flowers, fruits, paper money, wine and other things that ancestors loved to eat before their death (the number of sacrificial gifts is random), we should also light incense sticks and burn incense to the land of mountain gods in charge of the cemetery, because the land of mountain gods is the patron saint of the cemetery. After that, you kowtow respectfully to your ancestors and offer flowers, then burn cymbals and drink a libation (that is, sprinkle wine on the ground to represent a toast to your ancestors). After the ceremony, you can eat and drink, and then you can go after lighting the incense.

1 1. Why don't you laugh or scold when you sweep the grave?

Because the cemetery is the home of ghosts, so don't cross the graves and offerings, don't make a noise, don't laugh and curse, don't swear, don't run around and touch, and don't urinate anywhere. This is not only disrespectful to ancestors, but also a nuisance to nearby gods. You can't trample on other graves or criticize the design of graves, which will be considered blasphemy. If you encounter a bad atmosphere, you will get into trouble and go home.

12. Why should we be careful when taking photos in the graves of our ancestors?

In China, ancestor worship is not only to commemorate ancestors, but obviously to worship and pray for the dead. Dr. Zheng specially reminded his friends that no matter the grave sweeper himself, grave sweepers and cemeteries, they should be careful when taking pictures in the graves of their ancestors. When taking pictures, it is even more taboo to take other people's graves into the camera. Otherwise, your fortune is likely to decline and be unbalanced in all aspects.

Burning buns is a form of paying homage to ancestors. The so-called baggage, also known as package, refers to the package that Xiao sent from Shi Yang to the underworld. The so-called wrapping is to paste a big bag with white paper. There are two forms: one is a woodcut version with Sanskrit transliteration of "Death Mantra" printed around it, and a lotus memorial tablet printed in the middle with the names of the deceased who received the money, such as "the late boss of Zhang Fujun Afraid of Yunshan", which is both a parcel and a memorial tablet. The other is plain foreskin, which does not print any patterns. Just put a blue sign in the middle and write down the name of the deceased. Also used as a master card.

Don't visit relatives and friends on the same day in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Why not visit them the next day? Because Tomb-Sweeping Day is a special time to pay homage, it is unreasonable or unlucky to visit relatives and friends at this time. Of course, you can also invite friends and relatives out for dinner.

Finally, Dr. Zheng reminds you to pay attention to fire safety, and you can leave after lighting the incense.

19, will Tomb-Sweeping Day worship ceremony let Yin Qi go home?

This problem is difficult to explain clearly. Of course, you can wear some Buddha statues, amulets, mahogany and the like. In fact, Dr. Zheng believes that as long as you are kind and respectful to your ancestors and the deceased around you, there should be no problem. After going home from worshipping God, a brazier ceremony can be held when necessary, which can remove the gas field of worshipping when the fortune is low.

20. After the husband dies, can the wife go to the grave?

There is a saying in the street that a wife can't go to the grave three years before her husband dies. This is a matter of custom. Dr. Zheng believes that as long as local customs are respected, if there is such a custom in the local area, it should be avoided, otherwise it will bring a lot of psychological troubles in the future. If there is no local custom, it has nothing to do with this taboo.

2 1, can I accompany my friends to sweep the grave?

For various reasons, many people may encounter the problem of whether to accompany their friends to the grave, such as whether their girlfriends accompany their boyfriends to the grave, whether their subordinates accompany their bosses to the grave, and even whether they accompany their customers to the grave in business. Dr. Zheng believes that outsiders should not accompany them to the grave because their gas fields are different. If it is really unavoidable, then Dr. Zheng suggests that you wear a mascot to ward off evil spirits, such as mahogany hand beads, otherwise you will commit taboos.
