Water lanterns during the Ghost FestivalIt is a custom of the Minnan and Taiwanese people to release water lanterns. During the Ghost Festival, they will first release lanterns in various waters to welcome the arrival of the dead souls, to help the dead souls light the way, and to invite them to share the incense. This is called "water lanterns." Most of them are made of paper in the shape of a palace with wax burning inside. Inside is a colorful triangular paper flag, known as the "Pudu flag". The flag is written with a brush with "Celebrate the Zhongyuan Festival", "Spread the Yulan Festival", "Respect the Yin Light", "May the Dark Light Shine Everywhere" and other "Zhongyuan Respectful Words" words. The owner's name is also written on the flag to let the good brothers (a respectful name for the dead in Minnan dialect) know which donor is offering the sacrifice. Some people write directly on the lanterns without using a flag. It is said that the farther the water lantern floats, the more blessings the donor will receive. |
