    Many people ask this question, are "can not enter the temple during the menstrual period to worship the Buddha" said frightened, in fact, this is not in Buddhism there is no such saying, the Buddha does not care about this, in addition, I also consulted a lot of senior monks, including female monks (that is, our so-called "nuns"), the answer is yes, you think, especially the women's dojo (commonly known as "nunnery"), they all live in it to practice, everywhere worship the Buddha, do you have to move to the temple to live outside the temple in those days? It can be seen that the statement that "you are not allowed to enter the temple to worship the Buddha during the menstrual period" is a fallacy. So you just have to go and worship the Buddha and offer incense.

    Of course, everything has a reason, so where does the saying "you can't go into the temple to worship the Buddha during your menstrual period?"Originated from Chinese folk ancestor worship, because the ancestors became gods, the yang energy is very heavy, so when worshipping the ancestors, women who come to menstruation are forbidden to enter, the reason is that women are considered to be yin, and they will rush to Ke;Second, ancestor sacrifice comes from ancient times, scientific knowledge was not popularized in that era, it is believed that menstruation comes from the lower body, and feces and urine are homologous, not clean, and thirdly, blood represents war, disaster and bloodshed, which is not auspicious, so it is forbidden for women to sacrifice to their ancestors during menstruation. Then it was slowly misunderstood by later generations, and it was extended to the misunderstanding that "you can't enter the temple to worship the Buddha during the menstrual period".

    In the same way, if the girl is pregnant, after giving birth and other factors, if the physical strength permits, of course, you can also go to the temple to worship the Buddha.

    Of course. Buddhism emphasizes the reason why incense is made on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, because incense can not only offer Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, but also offer to the six sentient beings at the same time, among which there is a category of ghost sentient beings who specialize in incense as food, but the flow of time and space on their side is slower than ours, and a day of the ghost path is equivalent to a month in the world, so we are in the beginning.

    1. Offering incense on the fifteenth day is to offer them lunch and dinner, so the merit of incense on these two days is particularly great, which forms the custom of incense on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. In fact, only those who have a Buddha in their hearts can offer incense anytime and anywhere.

    There is such a saying among the people that it is impossible to go far on the first day of junior high school and fifteen years old.

    Like some old people, they often use this kind of statement to educate their children, but the most specific reason is that they can't say it, so they have to do it anyway. This is what all childhood experiences are all about. In these two days, it is the time when the door between the human world and the spiritual world is opened, so people will go to the temple to burn incense during these two days, and the temple will also hold some Buddhist activities, and some wishes made in these two days can be heard by the Buddha and Bodhisattva in the spiritual world.

    Similarly, some yin bodies will also come to our world to walk around, for example, like some unjust relatives and creditors, so people like Buddhism and temples will chant sutras and chant Buddhas to use the Dharma to give them excess, especially at night, some yin activities are the most frequent, children's yang is not as good as adults, if you encounter some ghosts outside, contact with children, it will cause some discomfort to children.

    For example, after being frightened, the child will have a fever and go to the hospital for **, and he will not see the improvement of his condition, and then he will find some goddesses and ask some Taoist charms to go home and burn them. But in these two days, adults should also pay attention, and there are often some elderly people who say that today is the first day of the new year or the fifteenth day of the new year. Don't go to what you're going to do, and I'll go tomorrow.

    Because I don't know when, the yang energy will decrease, and it is very likely that it will be polluted by some yin body. Cause some errors in judgment, or ah, no spirit, easy to wander. There were some disasters.

    Then there is the possibility that some deceased creditors will find you to collect debts, so it is best to put some peach wood on your body in these two days, so that they have no way to get close to you, or tie your feet and necks with red ropes, so that the yang energy cannot leak out.

    If you are a student of Buddhism, you don't have to do these things anymore, because if you chant sutras and recite Buddha, you can go to Chaobo, and these unjust creditors will come to thank you and do more for them.

    OK. Let's talk about some reasons first, and then make up for it, just burn incense as usual, if you are often absent, or busy, and have time at home, even if your brother is not the fifteenth day of the new year, you can also burn incense.

    Burning incense, a Chinese word. Pinyin: shāo xiāng Interpretation:
