How to write the memorial tablet correctly

tablets, many people can't write now. Because modern people have lost the traditional culture of China, many people write memorial tablets in irregular formats. Another point is that when writing memorial tablets, many people have no respect and scribble casually. First of all, the requirements for writing memorial tablets. We should know that writing memorial tablets is to set up a position for these ghosts and gods. If we don't write memorial tablets for ghosts and gods, they won't be able to enter the Dojo. Buddhist prayer halls, monasteries and protectors are not allowed to come in casually. For example, we are teaching the Dharma here, we are playing the Seven Buddhas here, we are converting to the underworld here, and there are protectors at the door, and ghosts and gods are turning outside, so we are so anxious that we can't get in. There are also dharma protectors at the scene, including our reading aid, and ghosts and gods can't get in. How can they get in? Write them a memorial tablet. The memorial tablet is their passport and their position. I have talked about this problem many times in the report on the experience of helping students read. For example, there is an example: a wandering ghost saw our help and couldn't get in because the protector was very strict. Just like on earth, the protector sneaked in without seeing it. After he sneaked in, if he was seen by the protector, he would be driven out. The protector is very strict, so this lonely ghost hid. Later, when he was hiding in the kitchen, he happened to meet our lay man to go in and wash his hands. He asked, "I am a lonely soul and a wild ghost. I want to come in and follow the Buddha when I see it here, but there is no room for me. Please help me." Our lay man said, "OK. But it's too late to write you a memorial tablet now. We have a memorial tablet for all beings in the dharma world. Please stand there. " As soon as the lay man said hello, the protector knew that that was his position, so the protector didn't hurry. The patron saint protects our law, just like we are having a meeting here, and there are security guards at the door outside. Those who enter the venue must have tickets and passes. If our relatives and friends come and don't have a pass, we will say hello to the security guard at the door. "This is my friend and this is my relative. Let him in." The security guard let in. If you don't say hello, people won't let you in. It's all the same, so it's very important to write a memorial tablet. This is the first point. Second, when writing a memorial tablet, you should be respectful. We should be respectful to ghosts and gods. When writing memorial tablets, we should not write homonyms or variant characters. Every word of the name must be written accurately, and no other words can be used instead. If you write it wrong, ghosts and gods can't get in. So when we help people write memorial tablets, we must ask the names accurately. Chinese characters are very complicated, and there are many homonyms, so we should be careful. When family members provide names, they don't understand and pay attention, but we should pay attention to it. We must ask word by word and ask every word clearly. Secondly, writing should be neat. Some people write cursive characters and write the memorial tablets in disorder, which is not acceptable. What should I do? Write in block letters, stroke by stroke, this is one. The other one can't be altered. In the process of writing, if I make a mistake, I have seen many memorial tablets. After I make a mistake, I will take a pen and smear it, and then write. This is not allowed, not allowed, and not allowed. What if I make a mistake? Fold it respectfully and rewrite it with another one. This must be known. We can't be disrespectful to ghosts and gods. They can't benefit. If you scribble, the protector can't see clearly. No way. As we know, the memorial tablet is a passport for ghosts and gods. In addition to writing the names of the dead, we should also write Yang Shang, who is our master in Yang Shang. When writing about the master, the title must correspond to the relationship between the dead and the dead. For example, if the deceased is a mother and her name is Yang Shufang, then the deceased should be a son or a daughter. If you don't write Yang Shangren, it will be very troublesome to write only one Yang Shufang. In the ghost road, the ghost king mentioned Yang Shufang and came to a large group of Yang Shufang, which one to mention? Because there are so many people with the same name and surname, it is very troublesome not to write about Yang Shangren. It's not the same if you write "Master Yang". But there is still a problem here. For example, Yang Shufang's son is called Li Jie. Among the 1 Yang Shufang, there may be five Yang Shufang's sons named Li Jie, and the sons also have the same name, which is troublesome. What about this? Therefore, two lines should be written behind the memorial tablet: in which year, which month, which day and when; On the other line, you should write "Died in", that is, in which year, month, day and hour. After writing this way, when I get to the ghost king, I won't mention the wrong person. China is an ancient civilization, and the ancient culture of China is very particular about writing, but now people are gone. I've read many people's tablets, and I can tell at a glance that these people don't understand. For example, if my son writes a memorial tablet for his mother, and directly writes Yang Shufang and Li Suzhen, just write it like this. No, it doesn't work, and he may not be able to come. Moreover, now I see many gravestones in cemeteries, including gravestone carvers, and I don't know much about them now. It's a mistake to write dead father or father's adult directly on the tombstone. Some people write about their dead father directly, which is also a mistake, at least disrespectful to their father. Tell you, the writing of memorial tablets and tombstones should be clear to others at a glance. People don't have to ask: the deceased's parents or in-laws and elders are still alive, just look at the tombstone and you will know. After the death of a woman, when she looks at the memorial tablet, people will know whether the husband of the deceased is in the world, whether there are grandchildren, and whether her parents are still in the world. It is clear at a glance on the memorial tablet. How many people understand now! Nowadays, many people don't understand it. It's very simple to directly write the spiritual position of the deceased father, so it doesn't explain the problem. Even when I went to the ghost king, I found a lot of trouble for the ghost king. People couldn't find it, so I simply didn't look for it. So sometimes, although the memorial tablet is written, it has no effect. I'm going to give you a brief introduction to the writing of memorial tablets, which you should remember. If you have a chance, you'd better invite a book sponsored by our reading aid group, called "Simple and Quick Release Manual", which is a combination of four books: Simple and Quick Release Manual, Self-help Method of Yin-body, Notes on the End of Life, and Notes on Helping Students Learn from the West. This book is widely circulated in our reading group. At the back of this book, there is a writing format of memorial tablets. Let's have a look for ourselves. Today I will give you a simple explanation according to this format. According to China's writing method since ancient times, after the death of parents, we can't write parents, and we can't call them parents again. When they were alive, they were called parents. After they died, their father called Kao and their mother called Cong. Test and Cong, test is the father, Cong is the mother. When my father died, I can't say that my father is dead. That's the biggest disrespect for my father. I must call it the first test or the obvious test. If the memorial tablet is tested first, outsiders will know at a glance that it is a memorial tablet set by their father's dead son. However, there are still old people in his family, that is, the deceased has his father and mother. At least one person is here, or his father and mother are gone, and his parents-in-law are still in the world. Why do you say that? Because as long as there is one person in the world with his parents and elders, he can only be told to go first when he dies. He goes first and takes the lead. In this family, he is not shown yet, so he is called "first". If his parents, parents-in-law, and elders are all gone, and he has grandchildren, then he is the oldest person in his family. Just write "show" and show the show. He is the most distinguished person in the family, and he is called Xiankao. If there are no grandchildren, he can't be called "obvious" but "first", which is something we must know. The same is true for women. Cong is the mother, Xian Cong is also dead, as well as her in-laws, parents, and at least one elder is still alive, called Xian Cong. Xian Yan and Xian Kao are the same. They are both "Xian" when their elders are gone and they have grandchildren. The difference between showing and being first is that there must be no elders, and there must be grandchildren. There are no old people above, and there must be grandchildren below you to be called "showing", otherwise it is called "first", which is the same for men and women.

We don't know manners now. We all talk about our father. It's wrong. As a son, who are you to call your father by his first name directly outside? My son called his father's name outside and made a big taboo. This son is absolutely unfilial and doesn't understand the most basic rules, which is a big taboo in China ancient culture. But if outsiders come and ask, "What's your father's name?" If someone asks, you have to answer, and it is impolite not to answer. To answer my father, that is, my father, if my son calls his father's name, first say a taboo. It is taboo for me to mention his father's name, but I have to say it. What should I do if I have to say it? First bow your head to each other, and say a taboo word before your father's name. For example, my father's surname is Cheng Zhizhong. If I mention my father's name, my father's surname is Cheng, and he is afraid of loyalty, so I will say so. This is the truth when people hear that your father's surname is Cheng Zhizhong. This taboo is caught in the middle and not spoken as a name, which means that the son is humble and respectful to his father. Be sure to put a taboo in the middle, and write the memorial tablet is still the same. If you write a memorial tablet, you should write the first test or the obvious test first. For example, write my father's memorial tablet: My father's surname is Cheng. If there is a grandfather above me, or there is an old man at home, my father will take the exam first. His surname is Cheng and his name is Zhizhong. When writing a memorial tablet, you should write a "Gong" under Cheng Gong, and this "Gong" is a respectful name for him. Let's talk about taboo. We should talk about the name, taboo ambition and loyalty, and the government gives birth to the lotus position in the west. This is very satisfactory. The full name is: First test Cheng Gong's taboo ambition and loyalty, and the government gives birth to the lotus position in the west. If the elders are gone, my father is the highest generation in the family, then write: Xian Kao Cheng Gong is afraid of the lotus position of Zhi Zhong Fu Jun Sheng Xi. Father's writing is relatively simple. The writing of mother's memorial tablet is more complicated than father's. Take my mother for example. My mother's surname is Du, my father's surname is Cheng, and my mother's name is Du Xiuzhen. When my mother died, my grandparents and grandparents were gone, and when my mother died, my father died, so when I wrote my mother's memorial tablet, I could call her Xianxian. You can't say Du Xiuzhen below Xian Yan. It would be wrong to say that Xian Yan Du Xiuzhen. What do you call it? Her maiden name is Du, because she married my father. According to the traditional practice in China, she marries a chicken and follows a dog, so after she gets married, her surname is Cheng, but her surname is not Du. This should be understood. How to write the mother's surname? Her surname is Cheng, and her maiden name should be added. It's Xianxian Cheng Mu, as it is called. Because she gave birth to a son in the Cheng family, she is the mother of the Cheng family's son. Her maiden name is in the back, but the full name can't be called Cheng Du's. She can be called Cheng Du's when she is alive, but she can't be called Cheng Du's when she is dead, otherwise she can't find anyone in the underworld. You have to write your name, but her name can't be written directly. If Du Xiuzhen is wrong again, why? She has married the Cheng family. The maiden's name is given by her parents. When she was married and alive, what was her name? Her name is Cheng Du. But it's not good to write Cheng Du's name on the memorial tablet. It's not easy to find her in the underworld. It's necessary to find her childhood name so that she can find someone, because people have files in the underworld. Therefore, under Cheng Mu, Du Ruren should be written. Confucian people mean children. Let's write "boudoir name" below, which is the name of a prostitute, and the boudoir name is Xiuzhen, which is complete. That is to say, she is now married to the Cheng family and has given birth to a child. She is the mother surnamed Cheng, and her maiden name is Du. When she was a child, her name was Xiuzhen. It's still called that in Hongkong and Taiwan Province. What's it called? Her name is Cheng Du Xiuzhen. Here, women have one more rule than men. What's one more rule? If the deceased meets the requirements of an eminent person and her husband is gone, she will not be called a "Confucian" but a "Tairu". Because when my mother died, my grandparents and grandparents were gone, and my father died before my mother, so my mother was not called a "Confucian" but a "Tairu". As soon as people look at Tairu, they know that the husband of the deceased is gone, and the elders above are gone, and there are already grandchildren. Therefore, the full name of my mother's memorial tablet is: Xianxian Cheng's mother, Tairu's maiden name, Xiuzhen's birth to the lotus position in the west. In this way, writing the memorial tablet will be complete, and people will understand it at a glance. Therefore, this memorial tablet makes people look respectful. This is the writing format of mother's memorial tablet. Also, I would like to tell you that at the memorial service, apart from setting up a memorial tablet for the dead, we usually set up another evocation coffin for the dead, which is necessary. If you don't understand the reading group, if your memorial tablet is written and the evocation coffin is not established, his gods will run around. Yesterday, I told you about the lay man in Dalian, who was asked to run around. Sometimes, she not only runs around when she calls, but also runs around when she doesn't. It happened in the past when we were helping to read, and when we were helping to read a visit, the dead body was cold and stiff without temperature. I can't find the temperature. What's the reason? His gods ran away, ran far away, and ran around. If we write him a evocation and stick it there, he won't run far. This is very useful. The writing format of evocation complications is basically the same as that of memorial tablets. The writing method of the memorial tablet is that the title above is Buddha's super recommendation, and the following is written as an outstanding test or an outstanding figure. For example, Buddha's super recommendation shows that Cheng's mother is a maiden with a beautiful name and a lotus position in the west. At the bottom of the memorial tablet is the lotus position. The name of the evocation banner is not the recommendation of Buddha's strength, but the introduction of Buddha's light. The format of the Buddha's light is the same as that of the memorial tablet, but at the bottom of the evocation banner is written the spirit of the second place. The memorial tablet is the lotus position, and below the evocation banner is the spirit of the second position. For example, the Buddha's light leads to the enlightenment that the mother, the mother, the maiden and the noble name show the true spirit of Jane. Writing the evocation paper can make the dead feel safe and not run around. If the old man dies at home, if you want to write a memorial tablet, you must write it by your son and daughter-in-law. If your son and daughter are gone, you can also write it by your daughter. The master in the sun is a descendant, and the title is to take the test first or show the test first. Only when the son and daughter-in-law are dead can the grandson mourn. If the Master Yang is a grandson, the title has changed, and the memorial tablet is not an outstanding test, but an outstanding test of ancestors, that is, we are called grandparents in the world, and the titles must correspond. Many people can't write memorial tablets. How can he write them? On the memorial tablet, it says father XXX, and the signature is grandson's name. You call your father, how can you write your grandson's name in the sun? That's not the right name. You're making trouble for the ghost king. It's hard for people to find someone. On the memorial tablet, it is Xianzu Kao and Xianzu Cong, and only people in Yangshang can write their grandchildren's names. But remember, there is one condition. If grandparent's memorial tablet is written by grandson, it must be father and mother, uncle and aunt are all gone, so grandparent's memorial tablet can be written by grandson, and grandson can be in charge. If the father and mother are alive and the uncles and aunts are alive, it will not be the grandson. As long as the old man's family has children, daughters-in-law and grandchildren, they can't take charge, so they can't write casually. If the memorial tablet is an ancestral test, people will not ask, and the grandson of this old man is in charge, and all his children are dead. Do you dare? Your father and mother haven't died yet, so you, as a grandson, will write a memorial tablet, and with a stroke of a pen, you will put your father and mother to death! People who know, at first glance, your father and mother are no longer in the world, so you can't write casually. This must be understood.

when you are in good times, you can't afford to be greedy and stupid _ Fu Hui is all present!

In the face of adversity, there is no resentment with the evil fate _ karma is gone!

and writing memorial tablets between spouses. If there are no children, the wife writes a memorial tablet for her husband, that is, the first husband, with the name below, followed by a "jun", which means honorific title. The son calls his father the Fujun, and the wife says that his husband can only call him a gentleman, followed by the lotus of the West. The full name is: my late husband xxx is the lotus position of the west. The husband wrote a memorial tablet for his wife, calling it the first room. Because there are no children, here is her maiden name, the full name is: the first room X's maiden name xx gave birth to the lotus position in the west. If there are children, the wife will write a memorial tablet for her husband, saying: my husband x is taboo.
