no, 40 Road Festival New Year's
no, 40 new year
On the first day of the first lunar month, Huang Junming dragged his tired body to prepare for the New Year sacrifice of the Tianxian Palace. The entire Tianxian Palace was filled with joy. Taoist priests who returned home on holiday returned to the Tianxian Palace early, wearing new Taoist robes, chatting in the east and west of the Tianxian Palace.
The glazed archway was tightly closed. The four peach talismans originally hung on both sides of the vermilion gate were tightly wrapped in red cloth. The pilgrims outside the mountain gate were waiting quietly, and everyone wanted to offer the first incense in this new year.
A beam of sunshine from the New Year in Chenshi quietly shone on the glazed archway, and the three big words "Tianxian Palace" flashed brightly in the sun. The pilgrims heard a long shout from the Tianxian Palace: "Open~ Mountain~ Gate!" They couldn't help but stand up straight and stare at the vermilion gate. The door slowly opened from the inside out, and saw the Taoist priests in the Tianxian Palace standing inside the door under the leadership of Huang Junming.
When the door was fully opened, the pilgrims and Taoist priests were on the same face. At this time, someone among the Taoist priests sang a promise: "New Year is here, post Spring Festival couplets!"
The pilgrims didn't understand what Spring Festival couplets were. You should know that the first official Spring Festival couplet in history appeared in the Later Shu period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. At this time, every family hung peach talismans, so how could they understand what Spring Festival couplets were? It was because they didn't understand that they opened their eyes wide. They saw eight Taoist priests walking out of the Heavenly Immortal Palace, each holding a pair of red paper scrolls, and the latter four followed behind them, divided into two rows to the place where the original four peach talismans were.
Taoists wiped some paste next to the peach talisman. The Taoist, holding the red paper roll, opened the paper roll and pasted it on it. He then took off the red cloth wrapped on the peach talisman and returned to Huang Junming. The pilgrims looked at the red paper and saw two pairs of couplets. One of them reads: The wind blows, the birds in the south return, and the sun returns to the railing; they wish each other, plant a field of blessings, and congratulate on making good relationships. The other reads: The Taoist heart is virtue, the heart is inaction, and the heart is welcomed by the green ox; there is no need to make a hundred years of wishes, there will always be a hundred blessings every year.
Seeing this, the pilgrims were so excited that they could not help but wonder if they would also put such a couplet on the side of their peach talisman next year next year, which would save money and benefit from blessings. It would not be said whether the font of the Spring Festival couplet looks good or not whether the content had any meaning. Huang Junming saw that the Spring Festival couplets were posted, and said, "My fellow Taoists, this year is the first day of the first lunar month of the ninth year of Wude. I wish everyone a wider road to "Tao"; the more you learn the principles of "Tao" and become more thorough; the more you practice the Tao, the more you practice the morality, and the more you will be more enlightened; the more you will be more fruitful. At the same time, you will be invited to welcome the joy of the layman and us on the occasion of the new year. Congratulations, congratulations, and add joy, and everyone will be very happy; cherish blessings, accumulate blessings, protect blessings, and benefit the heavenly officials will bless you!"
As Huang Junming's accent landed, both the Taoist priests of the Tianxian Palace behind him and the pilgrims in front of the mountain gate were extremely excited and applauded, but the long voice sounded again: "Please all lay people come to see! Burn incense!"
Huang Junming took the lead, and the Taoist priests followed behind, and finally the pilgrims walked towards the Sanqing Palace in turn. Huang Junming respectfully took nine incenses, bowed three times in front of the Sanqing statue, and inserted the incense into the incense burner. It was considered that the first incense that had been worshipping the nine years of Wude in the Sanqing Palace, and retreated aside. Then the Taoist priests and pilgrims in the Tianxian Palace took the incense and worshiped the Sanqing statue and then inserted the incense into the incense burner in turn.
After worshiping the Sanqing Hall, Huang Junming led everyone to the Sanguan Hall on the east side, and in turn, the three officials of heaven, earth, water, blessing, fortune, and longevity, and then respectfully put the incense in front of Emperor Wen, Shennong, and Wushen Saint Guan Yu, then walked to Cihang Hall and the Immortal Hall again. After worshiping all the gods, Huang Junming stopped in the square. As a disciple of the Tianxian Palace, Ge Yanlin walked to the gate of the Centennial Palace with the remaining Taoist priests and pilgrims, and respectfully inserted the incense into the large tripod. After all, Huang Junming of the Tianxian Palace is also an immortal in the mortal world, right?
After worshiping the Hundred Years Hall, the third event of today's annual festival sounded in the long singing of Novosen: "Worship Tai Sui!"
What is Tai Sui? I think most descendants of China know that Tai Sui is the most evil. On the first day of the New Year, worshiping Tai Sui is to receive blessings without disasters and this year. Huang Junming sacrificed talismans on the octagonal high platform, stepping on the seven-star steps, as the saying goes, shines on the open tomb, and the island is filled with wisdom. The sutra is purple, and the blessings and longevity will naturally grow. Tai Sui is called the Great Heavenly Lord of Elimination and Longevity in Taoism, and there is no specific statue of the gods. The worship of Tai Sui is to eliminate disasters and longevity. Huang Junming used a dancer's sword and the other hand, and pinched the talisman with a sword. He couldn't help but sang loudly: "The Great Sage Beidou Qiyuanjun, can solve three disasters, the Great Sage Beidou
The Seven Yuan Lord can resolve the four evil deeds, the Great Sage Beidou Seven Yuan Lord can resolve the five elements... It can resolve the six evil deeds... It can resolve the seven evil deeds... It can resolve the eight dangers... The Nine Star Disasters... Husband and wife... Men and women... Reunite... Diseases... Essences... Tigers and Wolves... Insects and Snakes... Robbers... Death... Tianluo..." After singing seventeen evils in a row, it came to an end. Then he sang: "The names and five bodies of ordinary people are all mastered by the natal star officials, the natal gods and the natal star officials. Always bless them, hosting the life of the human beings, and they will protect the heavens. The ordinary people are ignorant and mistakenly think it is strange."
After singing, Huang Junming abandoned his sword, ignited the talisman, and bowed to the scent of smoke. The Taoist priests and pilgrims immediately learned a good idea. It was not until the talisman was burned that Huang Junming and the Taoist priests and pilgrims got up. This was to relieve the disaster in the next year.
Then Huang Junming brought the pilgrims to invite the God of Wealth for the Heavenly Immortal Palace and burned a sacrifice to the heavenly court to calculate the sacrifice for this year's New Year. Both Taoist priests and pilgrims felt fulfilled and their souls in their exhausted state. After all the sacrifices, Huang Junming accompanied each pilgrimage with a copy of Tao Te Ching, a copy of the "Fengshen Bang" that re-compiled during the winter period to demote Buddhism, which was usedless to criticize Buddhism, and then dragged his tired body back to the Centennial Palace. Perhaps because he didn't sleep well last night and had so many things to work today, Huang Junming felt exhausted and even forgot about the Liu Ting who had just finished sewing the needle. After packing up all the utensils, he fell asleep deeply.
But he didn't know that Liu Ting had woken up long ago and kept inquiring about this in the Tianxian Palace. It seemed that the injuries on his body were nothing. When the Taoists saw that it was the injured person brought back by Huang Junming last night, they did not shy away from his problems. They leaked some information in one and two.
