How many days does the Ghost Festival last?The 15th day of the seventh lunar month is the Ghost Festival.But in fact, from July 14th to 16th, the gates of hell are wide open. In some places, the Ghost Festival lasts for the entire seventh lunar month! The gates of hell are opened to allow ghosts wandering in the underworld to return to the world of the living and reunite with their loved ones. From a Buddhist perspective, opening the gates of hell is also a manifestation of the Buddha’s mercy, allowing many ghosts with unfulfilled wishes to be completely freed from the worries and regrets of the world of the living, to repent, to let go, and to finally escape from the sea of suffering. Therefore, in Buddhism, July 15th is called "Buddha's Joyful Day". During these days, just be respectful. Even if you do not believe in ghosts and gods, you cannot criticize or slander them at will. Ghost Festival Customs: Ancestor Worship People believe that their ancestors will return home to visit their descendants on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, so they need to worship their ancestors. This act of ancestor worship is a manifestation of the traditional ethics of respecting the dead, remembering the past, and consolidating the roots, and is a cultural tradition of gratitude to ancestors. It is the time for harvesting crops in the early autumn, and it is also a good time to share the joy of the harvest with ancestors. The worship ceremony is usually held in the evening in mid-July. On ordinary days, people worship their ancestors, but usually their tablets are not moved. When it comes to the "Mid-July" ancestor worship, the tablets of the ancestors must be taken out one by one and placed respectfully on a special offering table used for worship. Incense is then burned in front of each ancestor's tablet. Tea and food are offered three times a day, in the morning, noon and evening. Because customs vary slightly from place to place, the ways of celebrating festivals are also different, and the time of festivals may also vary.
