It is an ancient national traditional festival. Broadly speaking, Laba on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Kitchen God worship on the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month are all part of the traditional Spring Festival, and Laba marks the beginning of the entire new year celebration. The formation of the "Laba" Festival is the product of the combination of two aspects: one is the ancient "La Festival"; the other is the influence of Buddhist culture. This festival can be regarded as the product of the integration of ancient Chinese traditional culture and foreign Buddhist culture.How did Laba Festival come about?1. The "local theory" believes that the La Festival originated from the La Festival. At the end of the twelfth lunar month, our ancestors sacrificed the hunted animals to the gods and ancestors, praying for the new year to avoid disasters and usher in good fortune. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this day was designated as December 8th. 2. It is said that when Sakyamuni Buddha had not yet attained enlightenment and was still practicing asceticism, he once fainted on the ground due to exhaustion, hunger and exhaustion. He was rescued by a shepherdess, who boiled the grains and wild fruits she carried with spring water into a milky porridge for the Buddha to drink. This saved the Buddha from death. Later, when Sakyamuni became a Buddha, it was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. In order not to forget the suffering he endured during his six years of hard practice, Buddhists only ate some hemp and wheat every day. In order to commemorate the kindness of the shepherdess, they imitated the shepherdess's "mixed porridge" and ate it on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day of Buddha's enlightenment, to commemorate him. |
