Today, the eighth day of the fourth month of April, is the birthday of the Buddha Shakyamuni in Buddhism, and it is also a traditional festival in the mainland, called the "Buddha Bathing Festival". On this day, people will have three taboo behaviors, called "the third day of the first month, do not do", in order to seek peace and no calamity.
Fusheng
Killing means deliberately killing animals and depriving them of their lives. In Buddhism, killing is seen as the greatest evil deed because all lives are precious, and both humans and animals have the right to live. On the eighth day of the fourth month, people should avoid any form of killing, including not eating meat and not buying animal products. In this way, you can reduce the killing of animals, protect life, and accumulate good karma for yourself and pray for peace and health.
不口出恶言
Verbal abuse refers to saying things that hurt the feelings of others, including bad words, curses, malicious criticism, etc. On the eighth day of the fourth month, people should refrain from speaking ill words, and should treat each other with kind words and live in harmony. Bad words hurt people and also attract bad luck, while good words can warm people's hearts and bring good luck. So on this day, we should try to communicate with others in friendly language, spread positive energy, and bring good luck to ourselves and others.
Unscrupulousness
Stealing is the illegal possession of another person's property, which is immoral and not allowed by law. On the eighth day of the fourth month, people should avoid stealing, be honest and trustworthy, and obey the law. Stealing not only loses the trust of others, but also invites bad luck. Honesty and trustworthiness can earn the respect and trust of others, bringing good luck and success to yourself.
