The detention of a Feng Shui master after a funeral in Guizhou for more than four days triggered heated discussions. What is the local response to this?
After four days of mourning in one place in Guizhou, the decision to detain a Feng Shui master sparked heated discussions among netizens. Relevant local authorities responded to this provision. There are two reasons for such a regulation; first, to prevent and control the epidemic and reduce the gathering of people; second, to promote the change of customs and make simple and quick processing of trivial matters.
If the funeral process exceeds 4 days, the Feng Shui master will be detained administratively. Seeing such a regulation, the Feng Shui master may tremble. This regulation has also been ridiculed by netizens, saying that Mr. Feng Shui has also started to get involved. Some netizens support such a regulation and think that it is good to complete it in a short time. However, the practice of detaining Mr. Feng Shui is a bit simple and crude.
Every regulation is promulgated, and there must be profound reasons behind it. There are two profound meanings behind the introduction of the four-day rule for funerals. 1. Helps prevent and control the epidemic and reduce the time when people gather together
Since the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, the most effective method to prevent and control the new crown epidemic is to reduce the flow of people and avoid crowd gatherings as much as possible. Frequent movement of people will put pressure on epidemic prevention and control, and also create opportunities for the spread of the epidemic.
Although funerals are sad, they can also bring about gatherings of people. In order to prevent and control the new coronavirus epidemic, Guizhou has issued regulations that do not allow funeral processing to take more than four days. Completing the funeral in a short time can reduce the time for people to gather, which is conducive to epidemic prevention and control. 2. Promote changes in customs and make funerals simpler
Not all of the customs we have left behind today are desirable. Some bad customs should be abandoned, and only good customs should be retained and passed on to future generations. There will be regulations and changes in red and white matters. These behaviors are called changing customs.
Reducing the time spent on routine matters is also to promote the change of customs. In addition to avoiding the change of customs, it can also reduce extravagance and waste.
Although the relevant local departments responded promptly, such a regulation still aroused heated discussion among people. Some people agree with this provision, while others oppose it. What do you think of this matter?
