Both are festivals for ancestor worship, but they are different festivals. According to the old custom, the 15th day of the tenth lunar month is the Lower Yuan Festival. The Cold Clothes Festival is on the first day of the tenth lunar month every year, and the Lower Yuan Festival is on the fifteenth day of the tenth lunar month every year. The two are not on the same day. Therefore, the Lower Yuan Festival is not the Cold Clothes Festival.The "Xia Yuan Festival" originated from Taoism and is the day when the Water God relieves people from disasters. The full name of the Lower Yuan Water Official is "The Five Qi Three Ranks Water Official Who Relieves Disasters". He is in charge of the Nine Rivers, Four Rivers, Three Rivers, Five Seas, and Twelve Creeks. He is in charge of the register of dead souls and ghosts, and records the merits and demerits of all living beings. Every year on October 15th, the Water God examines the records of all living beings and determines their rewards according to their good and evil deeds, and reshapes them according to their sins. Taoist temples hold vegetarian feasts and offer sacrifices on this day to ward off disasters and liberate the deceased. |
