Why do Taoist priests say try not to draw lots?
Drawing lots is usually considered as a way to predict future destiny and events. However, drawing lots can't really change a person's fate and fortune. The result of the lottery is just a random event, which can't directly affect a person's fate and fortune.
Drawing lots may give people the illusion that their fate and fortune can be controlled and predicted by drawing lots. But in fact, a person's fate and fortune are influenced by many factors, including personal behavior, environment, family, society and so on. These factors are complex and interactive, and drawing lots can't completely determine a person's fate and fortune.
The result of the lottery is unknown, and people may feel anxious and uneasy about the result. If the lottery result is negative, people may feel depressed and disappointed, which may have a negative impact on their emotional and psychological state.
The process of drawing lots:
1. Prepare props: You need to prepare some props, such as labels, sticks and incense.
2. Clean lottery environment: You need to choose a clean, quiet and comfortable environment to show your respect for the gods.
3. Prayer: Before drawing lots, you need to pray to the gods and express your wishes and demands.
4. Put into the label box: put the prepared labels into the label box, and the labels usually have different contents, such as registration, signing, drawing lots, etc.
5. Shake the sign tube: After praying, you can start shaking the sign tube to mix the labels.
6. Pick up the label: Pick up a label randomly from the label tube with tools such as fingers or wooden sticks.
7. Check the instructions: According to the contents on the label, check the corresponding instructions to understand your fortune and future development.
