what other chinese traditions involve bells? compare and contrast these traditions with filipino traditions.

Sagot :

Bells are considered luck items in Chinese traditions. Bells are rang 108 times to begin a grand celebration. The digits are derived from the idea of 12 months, 24 solar terms and 72 hou (5 days a hou) on the Chinese lunar calendar which means 108 worries will be removed from the people. It can be compared in the 40 days mourning period of the family with a dead family member which means that only after 40 days will the dead realize that he/she is dead. Only after 40 days will the dead be peacefully start its journey towards the next life meaning the astray spirits have been deducted every 40th of their deaths.
