Hanfu is a wide robe with big sleeves, and the waist, hem and cuffs are very wide, so it is very comfortable to wear.
The origin of this word is
The word "Christina" has an etymological explanation: "Wuzhong called the person with wide sleeves' Christina'. According to Li Bai's poem, "Wide-sleeved dancing is like a bird from the East". Gaiyan's wide-sleeved dance is like Haidong Julia. Today, it is also called "Hai Qing". According to master Xing Yun's silent singing, Christina is the name of a carved bird. He is handsome and elegant, and often flies around the Liaodong seaside. He looks like a big sleeve of a shirt. Therefore, I borrowed the name of the sea blue bird as my robe name.
The moral of Christina is
In the ancient jungle, the clothes for worshipping Buddha were called "Christina", which means "sea", because the ocean is vast, deep and wide, which can accommodate everything, free and clear; "Green", because of its luminous color, is intended to inspire people who learn Taoism, which is different from ordinary people and better from generation to generation. As long as you wear Shanghai blue, it means that you are a real layman who is ordained at home, which is different from ordinary men who believe in women.
There is a beautiful legend.
There is also a legend that "Christina" sews cuffs. It is said: "Liang Wudi's empresses and Xi's empresses don't believe in Buddhism and often try to slander monks and nuns. Once, she ordered the imperial secretary to make some pork buns, and invited Master Baozhi and his disciples to fast with them. Shaving the blue palm and shooting soldiers to bully the ancestors will cause monks to break the precepts and humiliate the Buddha. If the monks didn't eat it at that time, it would constitute a crime against the will of the queen. Master Bao Zhi, a Taoist monk, had predicted his intention. So he ordered his disciples to sew Christina's cuffs first and hide the steamed bread in the sleeves. At the palace luncheon, put the steamed bread in the empty sleeve with one hand and take it out with the other. Only in this way can we escape Xi's trick. Whether this legend is true or not remains to be verified.
Suitable occasions for wearing are
Christina often wears it on important occasions such as chanting, listening to scriptures, meeting guests, discussing affairs and meeting elders.
