What is the meaning of sending lanterns during the Lantern Festival?On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, people send lights and lanterns to their ancestral graves to show that there are successors. Even in some ownerless graves, there will be kind-hearted people who will send a weak candlelight to let the lonely souls feel the warmth of care.The Lantern Festival began during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Emperor Ming promoted Buddhism. He heard that in Buddhism, monks would view Buddha relics and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. So he ordered that lanterns be lit in the imperial palace and temples on that night to worship Buddha, and ordered both the nobles and common people to hang lanterns. Later, this Buddhist ritual festival gradually became a grand folk festival. This festival has gone through a development process from the palace to the folk, and from the Central Plains to the whole country. When sending lanterns, it is auspicious for whoever lights it first. People who send lanterns to the graveyard must use their own matches to light the lanterns. If they borrow matches from others, it is believed that the ancestors cannot see the light. When lighting the lamps, one should say as one lights: I come to send lamps on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. I send golden lamps, silver lamps, and iron lamps. If there are children, the grave will be bright; if there are no children, the grave will be dark. He came to steal the lamp, a big iron lamp, but he couldn't even carry it on his back. It was cold and the ground was slippery, so he stumbled and stumbled, and his big cotton shirt was burned with a big hole. On the night of the Lantern Festival, every family sends lanterns, so the intersections and cemeteries in the wild are all brightly lit.
