What festival is the thirteenth day of the seventh lunar month?

July 30 (or 29) of the lunar calendar should happen to be a dark day in July, which is the day of the earth treasure king. Legend has it that the day when the Tibetan king was nirvana was the day of awakening, and Ryan called it "the birthday of the Tibetan king and bodhisattva".

It means "peace is like a hidden place, meditation is like a hidden place." In other words, like the earth, it contains countless seeds of goodness. The earth king is the land god of ancient India. This folk festival is the product of the combination of foreign culture and local culture, and the reason is that Buddhism and folk psychology have the same needs.

According to legend, Liang Qing in Nanjing is the place where Tibetan Bodhisattvas practice. Since the beginning of the month, worshippers have been burning incense and worshipping in an endless stream. The arrangement of the tea shed is varied, and it doesn't stop until the end of the month, so it is called "building a mountain gate".

When children get together, the lights are brighter than those in the Soviet Union, or they chase, jump, shout, or play, and go door to door. Suddenly, a strong wind blows and blows out the lights, and so on, it will explode, making them cry, laugh and worry. Therefore, the Tibetan calendar festival is also called the Lost Soviet Festival.
