Can women go to Wutai Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha during menstruation?
Many women are very concerned about whether they can go to Wutai Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha during menstruation. In fact, the customer service team of Wutai Mountain Light is often consulted. Today, Xiaobian dared to publish it publicly, and it is not recommended for female tourists to burn incense and worship Buddha in Wutai Mountain during menstruation. Different people have different opinions. There are two common answers among the people: one is no, and then there are many examples of bad things happening after praying to Buddha during menstruation; The other is yes, and then it is said that there is no fixed method for Buddhism, and nuns and Taoist priests in temples live in temples every day. But from the general answers we found in the temples, there are three situations. In Taoism, the saying is: inappropriate. The mixed view of Buddhism and Taoism is: inappropriate, because the Tibetan scriptures say that some ghosts specialize in menstrual blood, so there are many impurities during menstruation. Buddhist saying: sincerity is spiritual, which has nothing to do with it. Different angles have different results. Xiao Bian thinks there are two kinds of women facing this problem. The first is women who practice in monasteries, and the second is female tourists who burn incense and worship Buddha in Wutai Mountain. For the first kind of women, Xiaobian is unprofessional and dare not talk nonsense, but she found some information for reference only. ① Women have menstruation from the age of twelve or thirteen to forty-eight or nine. There is a saying that when you are menstruating, you should not pray and recite. This statement makes no sense. Short menstruation stops on the second or third day. For the elderly, it stops on the sixth or seventh day. People who practice must be idle. How can they abandon their practice because of their natural ailments? Today, when you are menstruating, you can worship less. ) chanting. All should be as usual. It is advisable to change dirty cloth frequently. If you touch dirty cloth, wash it immediately. Don't touch dirty hands, turn over scriptures and burn incense. Dharma. Dharma is flexible. External Taoism only insists on cliff management. Many people in the world only believe what outsiders say. They don't know the truth of Buddhism. Therefore, all the people in the world can't share the legal interests. -This famous saying was first put forward by Yin Zu in the letter "Letter to Ms. Xu Fuxian", which was selected from the master of printing light. He said: Buddhism is beneficial, and when it is respectful, it will eliminate one point of sin and gain one point of happiness; If you are very respectful, you will eliminate your sins and increase your happiness. If there is no respect at all, although it is a distant cause, the crime of scorn is unimaginable. ② During the physiological period, female believers at home dare not enter the temple to worship, or even go to the front of the Buddha to burn incense, chant scriptures, meditate and recite Buddha. In fact, this is a taboo for low-level ghosts and gods. Because ghosts and gods are afraid of seeing blood, it is easy to see blood. Ghosts and gods are bloodthirsty and greedy at the sight of blood, but the physiological menstrual blood is not blood, so they are insulted and teased; Therefore, women in physiological period may have bad consequences when they enter the ancestral halls, temples and halls of ghosts and gods. As for Buddhist Shamini, Bhikuni and Youpoyi, they all live in monasteries, and they are accompanied by sutras and dharma objects every day, and they have never brought disasters because of the so-called problems during their physiological period. -Excerpt from Master Sheng Yan's "Learning Buddhism". Is it taboo to believe in Buddhism at home? . There is a theorem in the world. Nothing is fixed. When things are decided by reason. Talk about things. To be in line with heaven and human feelings. You get it. Women's period. It is a chronic disease for most of my life. It will take several days to send. How can you stop chanting Buddha one by one? You must be clean and sincere at ordinary times. At this point, although the body can not be clean. When times are sincere. The underwear must be lined with thick cloth. Don't let dirty blood flow to the Buddhist temple. Anyone who touches the lower body. Must be washed. If worship is inconvenient. Be less polite. As for chanting Buddha and chanting. Then do it with sincerity and respect. Its merits and demerits are no less than usual. Take Buddha as the great compassionate parent of all sentient beings. When this disease occurs. Can sincerely recite Buddha. Then you should feel pity for yourself. If a fool holds it. Have this unclean disease. You can't recite Buddha. If children fall into the toilet, they should not call their parents for help. It's reasonable.-Recorded from the Complete Works of Master Yin Guang's Paper Money ④ Women's menstrual period is a chronic disease for most of their lives, which will last for several days, so how can they stop chanting Buddha? At ordinary times, you must be clean and sincere. At this point, although your body can't be clean, you should be sincere. There must be a thick lining in the underwear, so as not to make dirty blood flow to the Buddhist temple. If anyone touches his nakedness, he must wash it. If it is inconvenient to worship, be less polite. As for chanting Buddha and chanting scriptures, they are sincere and respectful, and their merits and demerits are no less than usual. Taking Buddha as the great compassionate parent of all sentient beings, when this disease occurs, if you can sincerely recite Buddha, you will be doubly sympathetic. If you are possessed by a fool and have this unclean disease, you should not read Buddha. If children fall into the toilet, it is reasonable not to call their parents for help. -On the sequel to the paper money, I sent a letter to a conscious layman. For the second kind of women, since we believe that we are going with sincerity, it is necessary for us to adjust our time and overcome difficulties.
