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.The month at the end of the year is called "La", which has three meanings: one is that "La means connection", implying the alternation of the old and the new (recorded in "Book of Sui·Rituals"); the second is that "La is the same as hunting", referring to hunting to obtain animals for offering sacrifices to ancestors and gods, and "La" is written on the side of "meat", which means using meat for "winter sacrifice"; the third is that "La is to drive away epidemics and welcome spring." Laba Festival is also known as "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. |
