    There is a saying that this relic is a stone in the human body, they eat vegetarian all year round, so the fiber in the body is not digested, it remains in the body, so the stone is formed, so the average monk will also have it.

    The relics are the crystals produced by the practitioners after cremation, and the relics of the Buddha and the great virtuous monks should be blessed and auspicious, but they are not a treasure, so don't take them too seriously. Moreover, relics are not only available to high monks, and some foreign cultivators can also burn relics, which is related to their practice methods. Some eminent monks are very virtuous, and they do not have relics, such as Master Xuanzang, so whether there are relics or not is not a criterion for judging the level of cultivation.

    Generally speaking, it is indeed like this, and only a high monk would leave such a treasure.

    Because the legend of the relics is a Buddhist thing, the monks will produce relics after their death, because the monks are generally very kind, hoping to save the existence of the common people, and have paid all their youth and time for the common people, so they will get the relics after the death, which is also a symbol of merit.

    Because monks eat vegetarian food and meditate often, it will lead to the accumulation of some stones in the body, so there are relics.

    Since the beginning of the 21st century, China can be said to be the fastest growing country in the world, and has become the second largest economic system in just a few decades. The development of the country's economy has led to the improvement of people's living standards, so now many people are no longer worried about food and clothing, but to find spiritual enjoyment, a trip has become a favorite entertainment for many people. Everyone's view of tourism is different, some people like to go to some very beautiful scenic spots, some people like to go to some romantic seaside, and some people like to go to some very mysterious places to explore.

    As a religious country, many people in China believe in Buddhism, so these people are likely to go to temples when they travel.

    GodWhy are the strange relics only available to high-ranking monks, but ordinary people can't burn them?

    Buddhism, as one of the three major religions in the world, did not originate in China, but it is particularly popular in China, and many people have believed in Buddhism since ancient times. Now in every city in China, there are basically one or two temples, and these temples are especially popular every time it is a holiday. If we have some knowledge of Buddhism, then we will definitely know about such things as relics, and many people want to visit them.

    As the crystallization of the relics after the cremation of the enlightened monks, although it is now a scientific era, there is still no reasonable explanation why only the enlightened monks can burn the relics.

    Many people who believe in Buddhism also know that relics are just an ordinary substance, and there are not too many supernatural components in it, and the reason why these relics are very respectful is that people know that these things are left by enlightened monks, which is also an affirmation of these monks. And the very miraculous thing is that all the parts of the basic body of these monks can form relics, such as the Famen Temple in China, there is the only finger bone relics in the world. Even the very soft tongue on our body can form relics, and some relics are very hard, and there are basically no traces left by a hammer.

    In our folk sayings, the reason why some monks produce relics is because they have been vegetarian all the time in their lives, and then a series of physical and chemical reactions occur in the body, and finally form relics, which are actually a kind of stones. However, some people speculate that the reason why relics are formed is because of the chemical reaction that occurs when bones and other objects are cremated together。However, until now, people have not had a reasonable explanation for how the relics were formed, which makes the relics give people a very mysterious feeling.

    Judging from the current situation, it is true that only high-ranking monks can burn relics after death, and after ordinary people are burned in the funeral home, only ashes remain, and there will be no crystalline substance similar to relics. This is the difference between a monk and an ordinary person, who has practiced for decades and studied Buddhism for most of his life, of course, is different from ordinary people.

    Relic relics are some crystals of different shapes burned after the cremation of a monk who has a high level of Buddhist cultivation. These relics are not in shape.

    1. Some are large and some are small, some are transparent, some are opaque, and some will show various colors. And the texture is generally relatively hard, the hammer is not broken, the surface is smooth and has some luster, scientists have done a thorough study of it, but with the current scientific instruments, it is not yet possible to completely decompose its components, and I don't know what substance it is made of, only know that the substance that constitutes the relics is very special. In fact, in addition to the commemorative value of the deceased monks, the relics did not see that they had any other functions.

    It can be said that ordinary people cannot understand why the monks can burn relics, nor can they understand how the relics are formed and what kind of material they are composed of. In fact, not only ordinary people, but also modern materialist scientists do not understand that if you ask people in Buddhism, they will generally say that a monk has accumulated a lot of merit in his life's cultivation, or has a great degree of cultivation, in order to burn the relics after death.

    The formation of relics may only be known to those masters in Buddhism who have cultivated profoundly, but the formation of relics must be related to the cultivation process of the monks. We all know that in ancient times, after the legendary monks reached a certain level of cultivation, they all had mana or ability, that is to say, they had reached a certain level and had a certain amount of energy in their bodies, so I personally believe that after these monks died and were cremated, their bodies changed by the power of Buddhism could form these relics.

    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.

    Relic introduction

    The Sanskrit word arīra, translated as "Shelira" or "Sri Ra", means bone body or remains. According to legend, it was a bead-like object formed after the cremation of the body of Shakyamuni Buddha, and later it also referred to the bones of Buddha and monks. Relics can be divided into bone relics, hair relics and meat relics, and it is usually said that they all belong to bone relics.

    Buddhism believes that relics are refined by spiritual merits, and they are mostly made of hard beads and dazzling colors.

    Regarding the relics of Shakyamuni Buddha, the "Chang Ahan Sutra" Volume 4 "Procession Sutra" records that after Shakyamuni Buddha attained nirvana among the two trees in the city of detained corpses, the Buddha relics were divided into eight parts, and each of the eight countries raised a pagoda to make offerings. According to the first volume of "The Biography of Ashoka", during the period of Ashoka, the relics of Shakyamuni Buddha were collected and 84,000 pagodas were built for offerings. Later Chinese Buddhism's descriptions of Buddha relics and Ashoka Pagoda often take this as their source.
