What happened to the dead in Tomb-Sweeping Day? What's the story? When do the first seven start?
In fact, there is no question of whether the people who died in Tomb-Sweeping Day are good or not. Birth, old age, illness and death belong to human nature and are one of the laws of nature, so no matter when you die, there is no difference between good and bad.
There is life only when there is death, and death is also a new cycle. When the elderly are dying, most of them are reluctant to leave, missing their children and taking care of their loved ones. But birth, illness and death are fate, and birth, illness and death are the normal state of time. Only when a person dies can he be reincarnated and have the beginning of a new life.
Tomb-Sweeping Day is one of the traditional sacrificial festivals. It is neither bad nor bad to die in Tomb-Sweeping Day.
When do the first seven start?
The first seven is the funeral custom. It is customary to think that the first seven days refer to the seventh day after death.
It is generally believed that the soul of the deceased will go home in the first seven days, and the family should prepare a meal for the soul of the deceased before it comes back, and then it must be avoided. The best way is to sleep. If you can't sleep, hide under the covers. If the soul of the deceased sees his family, it will make him miss and affect his reincarnation. It is also said that when they go home in the middle of the night on the seventh day, their families will burn a ladder-shaped thing at home and let their souls go to heaven along the ladder. From "Biography of Northern History Hu Guozhen": Although Guo Zhen is old, the elegant Buddha and edict at the beginning of July 7th were all made by thousands of monks; Sun Zhuan in the Northern Qi Dynasty: Since the death of Wan Wang, monks have been invited to set a fast for Ge every seven days and one hundred days.
