The full moon of July tells the story of Buddhist Yulanpen Festival

The Vu Lan ceremony on the full moon day of  July is  associated with the legend of Vu Lan filial piety, which is too familiar to those who follow the Buddha and the direction of Buddhism. But in addition, this day is also an opportunity to celebrate the transcendent work of the Buddha's lives, claiming it as the Vu Lan ceremony, also known as the Vu Lan ceremony, the Vu Lan tub of the bowl of the bowl of the bowl of, the Vu Lan of the bowl of the bowel.

 

The fate that forms this holiday is the story of Buddhist Muc Lien Lien Religion. When he saw that his mother was sent to hell to become a demon of misery and suffering, he couldn't help but ask the Buddha to show the method of relief. The Buddha instructed Ton Giai on the 15th of the seventh lunar month every year to display fruit soup to nourish the four directions to increase them, to neutralize ears and yoke, to help the mother to overcome suffering, suffering and enjoy happiness.

 

"Vu Lan Kinh Kinh" wrote: "Buddhists are filial piety, a mindful heart for his mother. On the 15th of the seventh month of the lunar calendar every year, we often use the virtue of filial piety and filial piety for the Buddha and the Sangha to repay the parents' long and generous merit ”. "Buddha of the century" has recorded: "During the day of Vu Lan, please make offerings to the three treasures to eliminate hunger, suffering".

 

The custom of releasing lanterns of flowers in  Vu Lan ceremony  began in the 6th century, and has the meaning of amnesty for spirit, ancestors sacrifice, dispel disasters, sickness, and pray for peace. From then on, this ceremony became an indispensable part of the full moon day of July.

Buddhism also emphasizes that this day is Vu Lan, which is a good day for boys to be pure, to practice in the direction of Buddha, a hundred times more blessed. One side is holy to worship, the other is hungry, soothes the evil, glorifies the good, is a holiday of profound human significance.

 

In some traditional places of Buddhism, this day the monk is not allowed to go out, but must sit in a quiet place and practice diligently. The full full moon day, considered the day when heaven and earth are in harmony, the quintessence releases, if possible, to advance to the Buddha direction will certainly have unexpected results.

 

Not only held in temples, nowadays almost every house holds the full moon ceremony of  July  at home with the desire to entertain sentient beings, pay tribute to ancestors, pray for peace for the whole family, banish hungry ghosts and exiled souls from coming to harass. 

 

On this day, Buddhists, Buddhists should also go to the temple to do ceremonies or recite prayers at home, which will help open the mind, enlighten the moon, and be closer to the profound and good values of Buddhism.END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.16/8/2020.
