Today is the first day of the sixth lunar month, so I wish you good luck! In Buddhism, it is believed that the first and third day of June in the lunar calendar are both the Christmas Days of Veituo Bodhisattva , but more people worship on the third day of the sixth lunar month.

There are many Bodhisattvas in the Buddhist system, so there are also many "Bodhisattva birthdays". The elderly are particularly concerned about these customs. In their eyes, these are no less than traditional festivals such as the Double Ninth Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival. For example, the upcoming third day of the sixth lunar month is the birthday of Wei Tuo Bodhisattva, and there are many related customs among the people.

Veituo Bodhisattva, also known as Vetopian , the Sanskrit name is transliterated as Vetopia, which means cloudy sky. He was originally the god of Brahmanism in India and the head of the thirty-two generals under the Four Heavenly Kings. He was later converted to Buddhism. The Dharma Protector is one of the representatives of the Dharma Protector Vajra Warriors in Buddhism.

It is said that Wei Tuo Bodhisattva once defeated evil spirits and protected the Buddha's tooth , so he was called Dharma Protector Bodhisattva . Since then, people have worshiped Wei Tuo Bodhisattva as a Dharma Protector Bodhisattva, believing that he can help people get rid of evil spirits, protect people's health, dispel diseases, exorcise evil spirits and eliminate suffering.

The third day of the sixth lunar month is the Christmas Day of Veituo Bodhisattva. With the development of science, fewer and fewer people know about such superstitious customs, so this kind of sacrificial activities are also limited to some areas and people. Pray and pay homage. People worship Veituo Bodhisattva in order to pray that he can drive away evil spirits and protect people's health and safety.
