When the old man died, how to put the relics?

If there is a Buddhist altar, it should be placed in front of the Buddha statue on the altar, and if there is no Buddhist altar at home, it should be placed on the top floor of the bookshelf. If none of these are available, they should be placed in a clean high place, not in the couple's bedroom.

You can also use a stupa pendant to put relics on them.

Wear it on your body, and hang the pendant high in your home when you don't wear it.

Every day with a glass of water, incense, flowers, fruits, shippo.

and so on, the home has a Buddhist altar and even the Buddha statues, scriptures, etc., and there is no longer a need to offer relics separately.

Dispense and clamp the relics and apply tweezers.

It is best not to use your hands directly, because your hands sweat a lot, and you are afraid of polluting the relics.

Ordinary people can't burn relics

"Relic" is a transliteration of Sanskrit, and can also be translated as "Sariro" or "Sarira". In short, it means bone body or bones, although relics are bone objects, but they can show a colorful and dazzling appearance, and the shape is mostly hard beads, and Buddhism believes that relics are made by refining the merits of practice.

Strictly speaking, relics include a wide range, hair, ashes, bones, etc. all belong to relics, so relics belong to a single relic. According to Buddhists, relics can only be found after cremation after the death of a high-ranking monk, and relics will not appear after cremation by ordinary people or ordinary monks.

At present, there are many shapes or styles of relics, such as agate, crystal stone, transparent relics, etc., and Buddhists believe that the relics of different eminent monks can represent the level of virtue in their practice.

The theory of the formation of relics

According to the scientific explanation, the formation of relics has a lot to do with diet, because monks are mainly vegetarians, so they have more minerals or fiber in their bodies than ordinary people, so they will form relics. But this statement is not very accurate, because there are many vegetarians around the world, but they may not have relics when they are cremated after death.

The other is related to bones, and small bones may crystallize during cremation, and then form relics. However, there is no scientific basis for this claim.

The last theory is that the so-called relics are actually stone substances in the human body. However, it was quickly denied, because the state of the stone and the relic was very different.

Ordinary people can't burn real relics.

The relics appear after the cremation of the monks, and the general Buddhists will also form the relics, this is because the Buddhists have been vegetarians for a long time, and countless cellulose have accumulated in the body, which is difficult to be burned, and the relics will be formed together with the bones. It's just that the value of the relics of the enlightened monks is higher and more precious than that of ordinary Buddhists, so ordinary people are generally unable to burn the real relics.

Nowadays, the reason why people value the relics of the slender monks is that on the one hand, it is out of a kind of respect for these enlightened monks, respecting their merits, compassion and wisdom during their lifetimes, and on the other hand, they also hope to be able to get the blessing of the monks with the help of the relics, so that they can live a smoother life in the future. Because it has been described in Buddhist scriptures that offering relics is a Buddha treasure, and seeing a Buddha treasure is equivalent to seeing the true body of the Buddha.

The reason for the formation of relics

There are many theories about the reasons for the formation of relics, the first of which is dietary habits. As we all know, monks have been vegetarians for a long time, so they consume a lot of minerals and fiber, which are eventually deposited in the form of crystals in the body. However, this statement has been questioned by many people, because in this world, in addition to monks, there are many vegetarians, but there are no relics after their deaths.

The second theory is bone remnants. After our bones are cauterized, they will recrystallize, and some of these small bones may become crystals, which are what we call relics. Others believe that relics are actually teeth.

From what you said, I want to congratulate your grandfather, the old man has passed away. As for which Elysian World he will be reborn in, it depends on what method he is practicing. If you are cultivating Amitabha Buddha, you should have gone to the Western Elysium; If you practice the Medicine Sutra, you should be reborn in the world of the Blue Medicine Buddha.

If you can tell me how the old man practiced, I can help you see it.

The cremation of the elderly has relics, which is a sign that the elderly have reached the Buddha realm. I don't know how many relics there are. In large monasteries such as Guangji Temple in Beijing, you can ask for a stupa and put the relics of the old man in the stupa to make offerings, as long as you make sincere offerings, you can quickly get the induction.

If there are more relics, you can offer some of them yourself, and some of them can be offered to the temple.

Respectfully worship your grandfather!

There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south!

Make a good container, put it away, and offer it up.

As it was said upstairs, make it with respect, or buy a stupa or a solemn container. Offered in a pure place.

It's okay to have your own home.

Pagoda Temple! Congratulations!

Put the relics in the pagoda and make offerings. You can do it at home.

The so-called relics are the crystallization of personal spiritual achievements, and the relics were originally called relics, and later they were called relics. The relics were originally translated into Hindi as "Ra" and other different names, which meant that the relics (relics) or (spiritual bones) were not completely cremated. The formation of relics has nothing to do with doing good deeds, it is mainly related to lifestyle habits, but it is very important that you live a long life if you do good deeds.

When a certain food is used for a long time, some elements in it are deposited in the body, and various crystals are formed when it is heated during cremation. The white relics are skeletal, the black relics belong to the hair, the red relics are muscle, and there are also green or five-colored relics. Some relics are so hard that they sink when struck with an iron hammer without any damage.

It is not a perennial fasting monk who has only been a monk, and a monk who has only taken refuge for a year has also appeared on the bones after incineration.

Relic is a sacred term in Buddhism, and even people who do not believe in Buddhism have generally heard of the word relic, but what it is, how it is formed, and what kind of mystery is hidden in it, few people know, and now scientists have finally given a reasonable and accurate explanation.
