Buddha bead culture 2025-01-29

There is basically only one thing to pay attention to when wearing Bodhi seeds, which is purity. Therefore, the following 9 situations are taboo:

One taboo: the wristband Bodhi is convenient.

If you really can't hold it back, please say that Bodhi can take it off and put it in the pocket of your jacket, which can be hung around your neck in summer, and you don't necessarily have to put an egg bolt on your wrist.

Two taboos: husband and wife sleep together and avoid it

When you share a bed, please do not carry it with you or keep it next to your bed.

Three taboos: Don't wear it when drinking

Do not wear a rosary when smoking, touching onions, garlic, leeks with your hands, or drinking alcohol, and do not spit cigarettes onto the rosary.

Four taboos: lightly let Bodhi enter the mortal world

When the prayer beads are not in use or worn, they should be placed in the temple or in front of the Buddha statue, and pedestrians with incense can use it every morning before getting up to use it.

Five taboos: let others stroke indiscriminately

Do not touch other people's rosaries at will.

Six taboos: Put the rosary in the butt pocket

Don't put the rosary in your pants pocket, and don't put it in your butt pocket.

Seven taboos: the pagoda is upside down

The rosary should be hung around the neck or hung on the wall with the stupa upward.

Eight taboos: do not contaminate fish and meat

Do not touch the rosary with your hands that have touched unclean objects such as meat or fish, and wash your hands before touching the rosary.

Nine taboos: Don't flip the Buddha's head

When twisting the rosary, after each twist, the rosary should be flipped over and then continue to twist, not over the intermittent cycle of twisting the beads of the Buddha's head (stupa).
