Taoist explanations of the three major ghost festivals in China

The Taoist festival is divided into three events throughout the year (collectively known as the "Three Yuan"). The origin of the Bon Festival is an expression of fraternity.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is called "Shangyuan", which is mainly used to hold blessing ceremonies. The fifteenth day of July is called "Zhongyuan" to forgive the sins of the dead souls. The Zhongyuan ritual is to forgive the sins of the dead souls, but it can never completely relieve the sins.

It's just a little lighter, I hope they rest in peace soon.

October 15th is called "Xiayuan", which is used to relieve the bad luck of the wrongdoers. In rituals, they not only save the souls of the dead, but also pray for the ownerless souls and those who sacrificed their lives for the country and died on the battlefield.

Save your friends.

The sesame oil money obtained during rituals is mainly used to purchase sacrifices.
