The first seven, China's funeral custom, is the time of death of the deceased, the date and hour calculated by heavenly stems and earthly branches. But people are used to thinking that the first seven refers to the seventh day after death. Different places have different "first seven" customs, but 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 bed. If the soul of the deceased sees his family, it will make him miss and affect his reincarnation. It is also said that the soul will wander around before the "first seven" after death. When they come home at midnight on the first seven days, their families will burn a ladder-shaped thing at home and let their souls go up to heaven along this ladder. Since the death of the deceased, every seven days is "July 17th", and * * * "July 7th" is forty-nine days. The first seven days are called "the first seven". On the third day, at dawn, my daughter-in-law went to the grave and cried, telling them to "watch the three dynasties." On the morning of the seventh day of the "First Seven", the closest relatives will burn several vegetarian dishes to pay homage to the coffin, which is called "Being the First Seven". During "February 27th" to "March 31st", Taoist priests calculated a day according to the date of birth and the time of death of the deceased, which was called "receiving evil spirits" and also called mourning. The shortest is the ninth day after death, which is called evil; The longest is the eighteenth day, which is called "the spirit of all evil". It is said that after death, the soul will go home once and then go to "hell". The return of the soul must be sent back by evil spirits, so it is called collecting evil spirits. According to Guangxu's Tongxiang County Records, "The return of evil spirits is also called the return of gods. Those who conflict with evil spirits avoid it, and those who are alone do not avoid it. When the evil spirits returned to Japan, the Taoist priest set up a spiritual bed, and the deceased Chen put on clothes and called them evil spirits. " The ceremony of receiving evil spirits is arranged one hour (two hours) before the time of death. Except for a plate of zongzi, which was given by a close relative, all the other close relatives "took the evil wheel" for the coffin. Set up a corpse yard at home, make a corpse sample with the clothes of the deceased, and ask the Taoist priest to ring the bell to chant Buddhist scriptures. A wooden pavilion commonly known as the "seat head" was placed on the platform, and the spirit tablet (also known as the memorial tablet) moved into the pavilion. The family kneels in front of the stage to untie the zongzi rope, which is called "Jiejie". During the "May 7th" period, please ask the old monk and lady to worship Buddha and turn over. This question can also be "seated". "July 7th" is called "Breaking Seven", which turns into normal mourning, thinking that the soul of the deceased has gone.
