What do China tables and banners in Taoism mean?

1. Huabiao is a traditional architectural form in ancient China, belonging to the huge stone pillars used for decoration in front of large buildings such as ancient palaces and tombs. According to legend, Hua Biao is a totem symbol of tribal times, which was called Hua Biao in ancient times. It appears in the form of a watchtower, which is rich in China traditional culture and exudes the spirit, temperament and charm of China traditional culture.

2. Banners refer to banners.

Every year on March 15 of the Dai calendar, there will be flag-raising activities. At that time, the men, women and children in the village will gather in front of the sacred tree in the middle of the village, and the elders (Geely) will recite the scriptures and pray for the priest. Then, the parents of each household took the new wooden poles made in advance (called "Buffakong", which is a sharp object with a height of 5 meters and a thickness of 15 cm) and stepped into the sacred tree guardrail, taking out the old wooden poles that leaned against the sacred tree in the first year and replacing them with new wooden poles.

The history of huabiao

Huabiao is a traditional building of the Chinese nation with a long history.

According to legend, Hua Biao not only served as a road sign, but also as a message to passers-by, which appeared in the Yao and Shun era of primitive society.

At that time, people set up a wooden post on the main road to identify roads and signs, and later postal kiosks and houses also used it as a sign. Its name is "ring wood" or "standard wood", and later it was collectively called "ring wood". Because the ancient "Huan" and "Hua" were similar, they gradually became "Hua Biao".
