The ancients had the tradition of worshiping their ancestors and gods and praying for a good harvest and good luck. In some areas, there is a custom of drinking Laba porridge. According to legend, this day is the day when Buddha Shakyamuni attained enlightenment, and is called the "Dharma Treasure Festival", which is one of the grand festivals in Buddhism. Laba Festival is the month at the end of the year. The word "La" has three meanings: one is "La means to connect", which implies the alternation of the old and the new (recorded in "Book of Sui·Rituals and Etiquette"). The second is "La is the same as hunting", which refers to hunting to obtain animals for offering sacrifices to ancestors and gods. "La" is written with "meat" on the side, which means using meat for "winter sacrifice". The third is "La means to drive away epidemics and welcome spring". Laba Festival is also called "Buddha's Enlightenment Festival" or "Enlightenment Meeting". In fact, it can be said that the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is the origin of Laba Day. Laba Festival was originally a sacrificial ceremony in ancient times to celebrate the harvest and thank ancestors and gods (including door gods, household gods, house gods, kitchen gods, and well gods). In addition to the activities of worshiping ancestors and gods, the custom of beating drums in the twelfth lunar month to drive away epidemics still remains in areas such as Xinhua, Hunan. Later it evolved into a religious festival to commemorate the Buddha Shakyamuni's enlightenment. The La Festival was called "Jiaping" in the Xia Dynasty, "Qingsi" in the Shang Dynasty and "Dala" in the Zhou Dynasty. Because it was held in December, the month was called Layue and the day of the La Festival was called Lari. In the Pre-Qin Dynasty, Lari was on the third Xu day after the winter solstice. It was not until the Northern and Southern Dynasties that it was fixed on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
