How to correctly write memorial tablet
In Buddhism exchange at the end of this time, I put in to help activities often encountered a problem: write something about memorial tablet.Memorial tablet, now many people can't write.Throw in the Chinese traditional culture, modern people, so many people writing memorial tablet of the format specification.One more thing, is a lot of people when writing memorial tablet, no devotion, scribble casually.
Tell me the first, and write the requirement of the memorial tablet.We want to know, writing memorial tablet is to place these ghosts and gods, if we don't write to ghosts and gods memorial tablet, the size of the dojo them into not to come.Chanting hall, temple, has a guardian deity, they can't just come in.To say things like here we are, we are here to play seven, we are here to do the nether world to convert, holding the door has a protective deities, ghosts and gods in the outside, just as great a hurry, don't come.Including our help to read the scene also have protective deities, ghosts are not.How do they come in?Write their memorial tablet.Memorial tablet is their passport and their positions.
I in the help is replete to report, said many times for this problem.Such as an example: a ghosts see us to read and not to, because the guardian deity is very strict.I can't see at a glance, and like earth, protective deities he secretly sneaked in.He sneaked in later, if the guardian deity see also had cast him out, guardian deity is very strict, so the ghosts can hide.Then he hid in the kitchen, just touching we lay in hands, he asked, "I see here is ghosts, chanting, really want to come in with the read, but not my place, please help."We lay said: "line.Write you a memorial tablet too late, but now we have a method for the community living memorial tablet, you stand there."This lay a greeting, guardian deity to know, that is his position, guardian deity won't catch.
Guardian deity is protect our method, as we have a meeting in this, preservation outside at the door, the door comes into play, must have a ticket, must have a passport.If our relatives and friends came, did not pass, we say hello to the door to save. "this is my friend, this is my relatives, let him in."Let into the preservation.You don't say "hello", the somebody else not let into, this truth is the same, so he wrote this memorial tablet is very important, this is the first point.
Second, when writing memorial tablet, devotion.We want to ghosts and gods respectfully, writing the memorial tablet, will not be able to write a homophone, di.Name to write every word correctly, can't replace with other words, you write wrong, ghosts and gods into not to come.So we guys write memorial tablet, the name must be asked is accurate.Chinese characters is very complicated, a lot of homophone, so we have to be serious, families name, he did not understand, do not pay attention to, but we should pay attention to, must ask a word a word, every word to ask clear.
Second, write it neatly.Some people write grass character, write the name of seven or eight slot, so can't.How do?To use block, a row of writing, this is a.Another, can not be altered.Writing process, if write wrong, I have seen a lot of memorial tablet, write wrong, take a pen with a ink bumps, besmear then write, so not allowed, no paint, no cross.Write wrong?Respectfully fold up, get a rewritten, this must be known.We're not respect ghosts and gods, they may not interest, you write, guardian deity to see not clear, I can't.
We know that the mantle is spirits pass.In addition to write the names of the dead, write Yang, Yang is our Yang cheng.Writing Yang cheng, appellation must corresponding relationship with government.For example is deceased mother, called shu-fang Yang, as Yang here should be a son or a daughter.If you don't write Yang here, only alone to write a shu-fang Yang is very troublesome.Mention to the ghost, the ghost king shu-fang Yang, to a large group of shu-fang Yang, ask which one?Because people sharing the same name much more special, don't write Yang here, very troublesome.You write the Yang here, just not the same.But there is a problem, such as shu-fang Yang son call li jie.One hundred shu-fang Yang, there are five shu-fang Yang may call li jie, the son of my son and namesake, it's in trouble.What to do with this?So behind the memorial tablet to write two lines: one line sketch in which year which month which day, what hour;Another line to write died, died of which year which month which day, which is an hour.So write later, went to the prince of the devils, won't make the wrong person.
We China is a civilization, of the ancient culture of China writing requirement is very exquisite, people don't have now.I've seen a lot of people write memorial tablet, a see will know that these people don't understand.To his mother to write a memorial tablet, for example, write directly shu-fang Yang, vity, write directly, I can't, no effect, not necessarily can come.Again now that I see a lot of cemetery tombstone, including carved tomb, now understand much.Tombstone directly write his deceased father, or father's adult somebody, this is the wrong way.Some people are directly write XXX my dead father, this is a mistake, at least at least is not respectful to his father.# # p# page title e#
For everyone to speak, writing and writing of the tomb memorial tablet, want to let other people be clear at a glance, people don't ask a look will know that: the dead of his parents or in-laws, elder, also is in the world, a look at the tombstone, you will know.Woman died, a look at the memorial tablet, the somebody else don't ask, don't know, the husband of the dead is in the world, have grandchildren, her parents also is in the world, a see clear on the memorial tablet.Now there are a few people understand!
Now many people do not understand, directly write XXX the spirits of my dead father, very simple, that is not the problem.Is where the prince of the devils, will find a lot of trouble for the prince of the devils, somebody else can't find, just don't find.So it is sometimes wrote a memorial tablet, but have no effect.I now give you simply introduce memorial tablet of writing, we should remember.Has the best chance please read a book we help group students in printing books, called "simple quick release manual", is "simple quick release manual", "the Yin self-help act, even chi will notice, notice for help read born west four books had together.We help to read this book a lot of circulation, at the back of the book, a memorial tablet of writing format, you go and have a look yourself.Today I will according to this format, for everyone to do a simple explanation.
We according to written since ancient times, Chinese parents passed away, can't write parents, parents should not be called.They live by their parents, after death, his father said, mother said Bi.Test and Bi, take an examination of is the parent, Bi is female.Her father's death, can't say his deceased father, that is the biggest disrespect to his father, must according to test or examination.
If the beginning is the first memorial tablet, people outside a see will know, this is their father was dead son of memorial tablet.But his family with the old man, also is the dead mother and father, at least one person in, or is he's not the father mother, father-in-law mother-in-law also in the world.Why do you say?As long as the parents and elders a person in the world, he has in the elders, he died only call go first, he walked first, one step ahead.In the family, but also could not show him, so called "first".
If his parents, in-laws, elders a all have no, besides no elders, and he has grandchildren, so he is at home is the largest one in some extent, how to write?Just write "show", show show.His position in the family is the most honourable, said.If there is no grandchildren, he can't say "show", can only say "first", this is we have to know.
Woman also is such.Bi is mother, first Bi is dead and in-laws, parents, at least one elder still alive, said Bi first.Show Bi and explicit exam, too, are all did not have elders and have grandchildren, can say "show".
Show and, first is must not elder, and to have grandkids, not above the old man, his below should have grandchildren, can say "show", or "first," said men and women are all the same.
We now people don't understand etiquette, somebody said father, is wrong, when your son, what qualifications do you have outside directly call his father's name?Son say the name of the father in the outside, make big taboo, this son unfilial, absolutely can't understand the basic rules, make big taboo in the Chinese ancient culture.But if the outside people to ask, "what do you call your father?"People ask, not answer, no answer is also rude.Answer to my father, my father, the son said his father's name, say a taboo, taboo first I mention the name of the father is made of, but can't say, can't say how to do?To lower the head to the other party first, before the name of the father said a taboo word.My father's name is cheng, for example, called Cheng Zhizhong.If I make the name of my father, my father surnamed cheng, ambition, taboo to say that.The somebody else to know your father name is called chi zhong cheng, is this truth.This caught in the middle is not taboo as a name, humility is son, father honour.Must be between a taboo, taboo write memorial tablet.
Write a memorial tablet is to write the test first, or show.Such as writing of my father's memorial tablet: my father surnamed cheng, if I have a grandpa above, or there was an old man, in above the old man, my father said to go to.His name is cheng, called chi zhong.When you write a memorial tablet in the calendar below to write a "male", Cheng Gong, the "public" is addressed to him.Taboo here say, speak name, chi zhong taboo, fu jun born west of the lotus, so write is very complete, full name: the first exam taboo Cheng Gong chi zhong fu jun born west of the lotus.If elders have no, my father is at home to the highest degress, that want to write: show on taboo Cheng Gong chi zhong fu jun born west of the lotus.Father's writing, relatively simple.# # p# page title e#
And the mother's memorial tablet method and a bit more complicated than his father.My mother, for example.My mother surnamed du, surnamed cheng, my father my mother's name was she.When my mother died, my grandparents, maternal grandparents all have no, and when my mother died, my father has passed away, so I write to my mother memorial tablet, you can call the Bi.Show Bi show Bi here can't say she, she it would be wrong.What do you call?Her maiden name du, because she was married to my father, according to Chinese tradition, marry a chicken with chicken, married dog follows dog, so sheTo get marriedLater, her name is cheng, she is not surnamed du, to understand it.
Write my mother's last name, how to write?Her name is cheng, have to write her maiden name.Is mother Bi cheng, so called.Because she was in the housesonAnd she is the mother of the sons of ride home.Her maiden name on the back, but the full name cannot say Cheng Dushi.She live can say Cheng Dushi, after the death cannot say Cheng Dushi, or to the grave could not find.Also write down the name, but her name can't write directly, if she was wrong again, why?She has been married to ride home.Maiden name is the name of the bride's family parents play, after she got married to live life, what's her name?Her name is Cheng Dushi.But not on the memorial tablet only write Cheng Dushi, bad to the grave, and her name as a child, it is good for you to find people, because the person is in the grave.
So mother will write du women are below.Women are isThe childMean, here to write "best friend", that's when the girl's name, best show Jane, this is complete.Is she married to ride home, now alreadyTo have children, she is surnamed cheng's mother, her maiden name du, when I was a child when her name is Jane show.Now in Hong Kong, Taiwan or call over there.What do you call?Call Cheng Duxiu Jane.
Here, more female than male a rule.More than a rule?If the dead can meet the requirements of explicit Bi, and her husband also gone, she wouldn't say, "women are" will call "all women are".
Because my mother died, my grandparents, maternal grandparents all have no, and my father to my mother's death, so my mother she said "women are not, to say" all women are ".The somebody else see too women are knew, the dead husband is gone, the elders also have no, already have grandchildren.Memorial tablet full name is: so my mother too women are best of show Jane Bi cheng mother born west of the lotus.This memorial tablet is complete, the somebody else see will understand.So, let people have a look at the memorial tablet devotion.This is mother's memorial tablet written format.
And give you said, we are at the scene of the help to read, in addition to set up a memorial tablet for the dead, we often give the dead made another evocation complications, it is necessary.Don't understand to read, if you write memorial tablet, evocation complications did not stand, his gods will run away.To everyone when it comes to dalian yesterday the householder, others a recruit her run away.Sometimes, not only run free time, she also don't run away.
We help read happened in the past, is to read a visitation and the dead body, cold and stiff no temperature.Can't find the temperature, the reason is what?His gods run, run away, run around.If we write him an evocation complications, posted there, and he ran to the works.
Evocation complications of writing, and memorial tablet writing format is basically the same.Memorial tablet of writing the above named commend is super Buddha, the following written exam or show Bi, such as: commend fo force super Bi cheng mother too show Jane gave birth to western women are best name lotus.Along the bottom is the lotus.
Evocation complications of wording, named not commend fo force super, is the Buddha's light lead.Buddha's light after get the format and the format of the memorial tablet, but where is the trail of the bottom is b is the spirit of.Memorial tablet is the lotus, evocation complications here are b a positive spirit.Such as: Buddha lead too women are best Bi cheng mother name show Jane b a positive spirit.The evocation complications to the written, can make the dead heart very Ann will not run.
If the old man died inside house, want to write a memorial tablet, must write son daughter-in-law, his son daughter-in-law, have no, have a daughter, daughter can also write.Yang is here children generation, test ahead of the call is Bi or show show Bi test first.Wealth only son daughter-in-law, grandson to Lord loss.If Yang master cheng yen's grandson, the address has changed, on the memorial tablet, it is not show show Bi test, should be show ZuKao, progenitor Bi, also is the world we call grandfather, grandmother, appellation must correspond.
Many people won't write a memorial tablet, what did he write?Is written in the memorial tablet father XXX, from sun tzu's name.How can you call father, Yang grandson's name?Call not ah, you give the ghost king trouble which, the somebody else is bad for someone.On the memorial tablet is show ZuKao, progenitor Bi, named grandson Yang on talents.# # p# page title e#
But we want to remember, on one condition.If is the grandson to grandma and grandpa mantle stand, write in Yang cheng grandson, that must be a father, mother, uncle aunt all gone, grandpa memorial tablet can turn grandson to write, the grandson to master.If the father mother alive, alive, uncle aunt can't round on master grandson.As long as the old man has children, a daughter-in-law, grandson of the master can't go to, so can't write.
If show ZuKao memorial tablet is, people don't ask, the old master grandson, his children all death ray.Don't you dare?Your father mother has not died, you this when the grandson of the master is to write a memorial tablet, a stroke of a pen, Yang cheng so-and-so, you put your father mother sentenced to death!Understand the people and your father mother not in this world, so can't write, this must understand.
In prosperity with good fortune not greedy delusion _ fu hui now!
Meet adversity with evil fate not born Chen to _ karma does gone!

There are written memorial tablet between spouses.If no children, his wife to the husband write a memorial tablet, was to write XianFu, below is the name, behind plus a "gentleman", is the meaning of your respectful name, son said father said fu jun, wife said her husband can only say one word jun, behind is born west of the lotus.Full name is: XianFu XXX jun born west of the lotus.Her husband to give her a written memorial tablet, called room first, because they had no children, so here are her maiden name, full name is: the first chamber of x's best friend xx born west of the lotus.
If you have children, the wife to her husband write a memorial tablet, to write: taboo XianFu x and xx jun born west of the lotus.Has children, her husband to give her a written memorial tablet is: the first chamber of x x mother's best friend xx born west of the lotus.Because she had a baby for you, if you name is Jane, her name is wang li called show to write: lee mother wang's best student show Jane west of lotus, must be in accordance with this format to write.No son is: first chamber of the wang ladies show Jane born west of the lotus.The memorial tablet is simple.
Write a memorial tablet, between the brothers is very simple.Write a memorial tablet, brother to brother to write: first cousin.To respect the elder brother.Brother to brother write a memorial tablet, can directly write his deceased brother, the brother of death, call directly.But brother writing memorial tablet to brother, he can't write his deceased brother, if brother write brother memorial tablet, write brother, somebody else will know that, the man didn't rule, so to write brother first.
Parents give children write a memorial tablet, write the male, the son of death.Daughter died so the woman, parents can call the names of the sons and daughters, making no taboo.Below is the name plus the lotus position is ok, very simple, the good writing.
In addition to these earlier, in the back of the memorial tablet, be sure to write the date and hour of birth horoscope and death of the dead.If somebody flipped the memorial tablet, a look back a birth horoscope you don't know, you do children don't even know their parents birthday you, how do you give parents hold a birthday party?You did not give parents do, you the sons and daughters of filial piety?The somebody else all don't ask to know.So why say particularly profound Chinese traditional culture, people still use to ask you this son filial piety is not filial piety?
There is generally no, now people don't understand, the color of the memorial tablet.A few people know that now?Now all over the country size temple, chanting hall, memorial tablet is yellow, all this in the past is not allowed.Yellow memorial tablet is forA womanWith the femalePeople diedWith a yellow card, only man was dead cannot use yellow memorial tablet, man was dead set memorial tablet with green paper.In the past, is far away from the hall a look, don't see the word, a look at the color of the memorial tablet will know that the dead are male or female.Now no matter male of female are all yellow, I can't tell, if you want to know, to take a look.Now people don't understand the Chinese traditional culture, if you use cyan memorial tablet, he thought you were in the wrong, and cyan memorial tablet is bad to buy, so we also fate, all in yellow memorial tablet.Want to read around the group must learn to write a memorial tablet, must learn to.Writing memorial tablet is also cultivate our devotion, our spirits to respect!
We often say that all beings are our parents, not talk, they did is our parents.So ghosts and gods are our parents, all the dead are our parents, the three eight difficult all suffering sentient beings is our parents, we need to respect!Writing every memorial tablet, is we face each and every one of the victims, like their parents to respect them, to have a sincere heart, devotion, stroke at a write, write regular script word.
These two years I seldom write a memorial tablet, because the buddhist is very busy in these two years.A few years ago, I didn't leave kaifeng, memorial tablet are mostly I wrote.A lot of families like asked me to write, they joked, "the spirit of the process of writing."Work your heart, look at you is written in what state of mind.When I write a memorial tablet, the memorial tablet after picked, I usually put a memorial tablet to the fold.Why is that?Fold after middle of memorial tablet, there is a broken line, when I write a memorial tablet along the middle line, so the memorial tablet written word is straight.If don't have the on line, so long a memorial tablet to write down go to, if there is no strength, the memorial tablet of word write crooked, not good-looking.So the first vertical to the fold.# # p# page title e#
Of course, on the memorial tablet also not line, can't play.Draw a line in the middle, you say?I can't.You can gently vertical to the fold.I also often folded a few times, folded in half, intermediate can be divided into several, stem what?Make the handwriting on the memorial tablet on average, the same size.If it is not to separate the lattice, write a memorial tablet to see what would happen?Write, write is very small, in front of the following is empty, the word is very big.Write the word in front of the small, writing together, behind the words is very big and loose, so very not good-looking.Sometimes you write words a bit bigger, some loose, no place to back, hurry up and write the words a little bit small, very tight.This memorial tablet let a person see the uncomfortable, people looked at all uncomfortable, can the ghosts and gods at comfortable?
Give you said that, in the past scholar highest, pay attention to at that time.Papers to the interviewer, he don't see how good your article first, the article content have much good, if the examiner to see you in thisThe testVolume with a group of ink, he catch you in test paper and put into the rubbish bin, don't look at!Content is better to watch!Because you do it in the future, untidiness constantly aitches, can't for the people in charge, so to write better articles, virtue is not good, also need not, people do things very strict in the past.Not line, now see now person's article, painted at sixes and sevens.
We write a memorial tablet, not painted, not above.Now in order to convenient, we on the memorial tablet, usually printed, fill out this part just fill in the middle.When I write, first from the middle stood folded in half and put blanks folded a few times, just a few words, I can write it very evenly.Sometimes write a memorial tablet, a memorial tablet I can write down their teens and 20 minutes, write more slowly, don't worry.Some families said: "you hurry up."I say: "hurry up who you want to find who, to me, that's what I speed."Or some people told me "you write the memorial tablet of spirit."Will work?Spirit, and true spirit.
Old wizard said scribbles, some scribbles spirit, some scribbles, why?Scribbles's purity, a pitch is not born, he painted is spirit.Just like we practitioners, who can clearly read sentence amitabha, destroyed eight billion of life and death a felony.Not clearly read hundreds of sound, and needless to industry.
Memorial tablet simple introduce to everyone here.Finally tell you, help read instance, method, theory, we talked about the total of three, now basically satisfactory.Someone still let I read something about help the process, read the help not process, because every family, every help to read, this need us to send the heart.Everyone heart, promise a bodhisattva blessing, open our wisdom, can deal with all kinds of ever-changing scenarios.Don't formality, don't learn eight-part essays set of rules.A lot of things, if you go to the set of rules, is no matter with the scene of the help to read.
At the scene of the help to read, to tell you, don't go to learn the others, copy others, go back, no use.To read the scene must be according to the actual situation, random process, should machine, the effect is particularly good.Even said to read the scene, also do not have a certain form.If the later, the dead not expired, there is time, if there is one multiplier, you can also play a multiplier, and lead all beings, singing "sweet praise", "lotus ChiZan", "amitabha sutra", "wang sheng zhou, amitabha, gold and so on, and then sing six hong, four words, this is very good.If we are to the scene, people are dead, you still in the "sweet", "lotus ChiZan", is still in the slowly sing, that wouldn't work!Remove all forms, writing memorial tablet, quickly into the scene to protect the good of the deadThe body, kneeling beside, simple advice, take chanting and all forms of don't.Say so, you can't stick the process, formality, it is very trouble.
Sometimes, we help read live far away, rushed to the scene, the people gave up the ghost has been a long time, we have to stick the process?-- -at the form?harmThe deadDear!Want to do something important.Even, sometimes to the scene, he found the memorial tablet has not been set, the memorial tablet true have no time to write to speak, to arrange people to maintain good body, grasping the chanting.At this time to make to a person, to arrange, memorial tablet, the arrangement of the offerings, arrange other paraphernalia.So, order can be reversed to each other, not necessarily in accordance with the form.
And put memorial tablet.Give you said, grasping very troublesome, and they were afraid to hold on.We are in hebei province to help, we grasp on to help read group also somebody special.Family house is small, we wrote a memorial tablet, put all the memorial tablet for at a table.Have a lay very persistent form.
Because we talked about in the past, in aid to the scene, conditional word, had better be karmic creditors memorial tablet and the memorial tablet of the dead, do not put in a GongAn table, it is best to independence.Because of ghosts and gods is close to the Buddha, ghosts and gods very fear, ghosts and gods, uncomfortable, so ghosts and gods memorial tablet and best figure of Buddha also want to leave some, ghosts and gods to rejoice.So conditional word, how to do?Buddha with a GongAn table, and then establish a GongAn table, specifically for karmic creditors, ghosts and gods, and so on the memorial tablet.Another GongAn table for the memorial tablet of the dead, to separate them.The dead and karmic creditors do not put together.Because at this time of karmic creditors to obstacle the dead, you put memorial tablet together, very troublesome, is of great obstacles to the dead, really is so.# # p# page title e#
But if include the form, is also very trouble!What I said is the premise of "conditional word."Now no place to the family home, but we the householder is very persistent, he had a look, and memorial tablet on a desk, immediately said: "this not line, such as law."He is sure to find a table for three.Ok, ok, warrants to borrow the three tables.The three GongAn table of a pendulum, the family house is small, the surface has no place, well, put the dead into the yard.We are to place memorial tablet or help to read?Regardless of primary and secondary!No, we want to flexible, a GongAn table can also be: middle of Buddha, the dead aside, karmic creditors, ghosts and gods aside, can be used in a table.
Give you said, is there really no place, no memorial tablet, nor can not ah!Then how to do?Don't stand memorial tablet, we say hello to the guardian deity, say "hello" works.We give a guardian deity said: "the guardian deity bodhisattva, now be someone let him in, so-and-so family's dead relatives belong to somebody, let them in, dharmadhatu beings, ghosts, let them all come in to puja."As a result, they all came in, you believe or not?You just say "hello", they can come in.Come in after you say to them: "we didn't place there's no place to ah, now can't give you a memorial tablet, but you should honestly, here don't rock the boat."You speak to them but also to be respectful to them, they listen.But as long as there are conditions, try to write a memorial tablet, find a small place, you can.No big GongAn table can find a small place, set up a memorial tablet is stuck on the wall, will do.Roughing, informal, to be flexible.Dharma is a harmonious, harmonious dharma, if you don't this sentence, I would say.The old mage can say, I just don't say, you must learn to harmony and society harmony is wisdom.
Well, the memorial tablet I am finished writing.Tomorrow I'll give you something about, to participate in community to convert benefits, to participate in the nether world to convert method, and how to participate in the nether world conversion.An interpretation for everyone to do, everybody to convert to sutra, and plainly will clear, at the same time, I'll share with you some past instances of conversion works well.Ok, let's call it a, amitabha.
