We know that some of the things done in these ancient customs are very meaningful. From our psychological perspective, we can actually regard these as symbols, which are symbols expressed through ritual behavior.
actually conveys a certain meaning through a symbol. If we know what its meaning is and then we do this action, it will actually be helpful to our mental health.
So what is the symbolic meaning of climbing up high , or climbing up high to ward off evil spirits? Why is it related to the elderly? It is not easy for the elderly to climb mountains, and it is quite tiring. Why do you have to do this? What is its positive and valuable side and psychological effect on it?
In fact, it is a principle for the elderly to be mentally healthy, live happily, and have fewer worries.
Because people are old, they are weak in their bodies and their intelligence are weak, and they have already moved down from their peak. So in fact, he controls his ability to control his life, his ability to manage his life, his ability to control the surrounding environment, and affects the people around him, and these things have all declined.
so the elderly are prone to having a problem, that is, they may be a little dissatisfied with the people around them, but they have no choice.
Sometimes, it is not a big deal, there will be some small things, all kinds of trivial things in life, he can't stand the younger generation and other people around him. "Why are you doing this? It's wrong for you to do this. I have experience and I know how to do it better." So the old man always wants to take care of the people around him and let them do it in the way they think they are right.
But the people around him, such as his children, may not necessarily like to listen to them, right? Because they have grown up, they also have their own ideas and ideas, and they feel that they don’t agree with the words the elderly say. At this time, both sides make sense. On the one hand, the elderly do have a lot of life experience, and many things may be right. Of course, it is also possible that the elderly are always a bit out of date, and in some aspects, they may not know much less than young people.
When it comes to a specific matter, who is right? This is not clear, right? We also do not have an objective referee who can make a decision clearly who is right.
So from the perspective of the elderly, the elderly should actually have an attitude, that is, to be less responsible and less responsible! I don’t care about these trivial little things and small worries in life. Let the young people go by themselves, even if they don’t do well, let them hit the nails themselves, and they learn by hitting the nails. Some things must be experienced by yourself before you can learn them, otherwise it will be useless if others tell you.
If the elderly can have such a mentality, they will have much less worries. This means that we elderly people go to climb high and then leave some of the small troubles, small disasters, and small difficulties. They are actually these things that we leave.
The elderly should stand higher, see farther, and catch the big and let go of the small. In this way, the people around you will feel more free and you will feel more free and free.
