Life is both fragile and valuable. Its freeze can be in its old age, and there are also people in their prime. At this time, funeral became a major event at this stage, and the wear of shrouds is the top priority. What is the priority for young deceased wearing shrouds?
Why should you wear a shroud?
The "dead" that Chinese traditional culture emphasizes. When the deceased is gone, the family will change out old clothes and put on new clothes, which is what we usually call a shroud. This is not only a respect for the deceased, but wearing shrouds is also a good wish for the deceased. It allows him to wear clothes in another world. If he doesn't wear anything, it will not only be bad, but the family will also feel very ashamed and guilty.
Do you want to wear a shroud when you die in your thirties?
In ancient times, it was believed that even numbers are auspicious when a person is alive, that is, good things are double. After a person leaves, it is considered that yin and yang are two levels. At this time, odd numbers are auspicious symbols, so you must wear odd numbers when wearing shrouds.
However, there are corresponding regulations on the number of pieces to wear shrouds. If the deceased is less than fifty years old, it means a young age. If you wear shrouds, you can only wear three pieces. If the deceased is older, you can wear more, indicating that you have good fortune and longevity. The older the deceased, the more pieces you can wear, but usually the number of pieces you can wear is 7 or nine pieces.
In traditional Chinese culture, people's life and death are both major events, but with the development of our era and the changes in ideas and concepts, the birth of life is a joyful event for the whole family, and the fall of life is a natural law, we do not need to deliberately avoid it, and facing it calmly is also a respect for life.
