Regarding the origin of Buddha's hand, there is a vivid and interesting story among the people.

Legend has it that in ancient times, at the foot of a mountain, there lived a mother and son, dependent on each other.

My mother is old and sick. She covers her chest with her hands all day long, has pain in her chest and abdomen, is panting, and is in unbearable pain.

His son Luo Xiaoshun sought medical treatment everywhere for his mother's illness, but in the end there was no good medicine.

One night, Luo Xiaoshun dreamed of a beautiful fairy who gave him a fruit that looked like a girl's hand.

He ran home and gave it to his mother to smell, and the disease was cured by three points.

In order to cure his mother's illness, Luo Xiaoshun made up his mind to find the fruit that looked like the fairy's hand, and set out at dawn the next day.

After a whole day of hiking over mountains and ridges, Luo Xiaoshun felt exhausted and sat on a big rock in the mountain to rest. Suddenly a little frog jumped in front of him and sang: There is a fairy fruit on the top of the mountain, which can save your mother;

It’s time to open the mountain gate, don’t miss it when looking for good medicine.

Luo Xiaoshun was very happy after hearing this.

Late at night the next day, Luo Xiaoshun successfully entered the mountain gate by the starlight in the sky. He saw that the ground was full of flowers, branches were full of fairy fruits, and the golden light was dazzling.

At this time, a beautiful fairy floated over. It was the fairy he had seen in his dream. Luo Xiaoshun was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down and prayed for fruit.

The fairy felt his sincere filial piety and gave him a fairy fruit to cure his mother's illness.

Luo Xiaoshun thought again, there are countless sick people in the world, why not take some fairy fruit seedlings to plant in the mortal world and produce fairy fruits to cure everyone's diseases?

The fairy saw that he was kind-hearted, so she gave him an orange seedling and asked him to take it back to earth to plant.

After Luo Xiaoshun got home, he gave Tianju fruit decoction to his mother. The fruit showed miraculous effects. She had no chest and abdominal pain on the first day, could eat porridge and rice on the second day, and could work in the fields on the third day.

After the mother's illness recovered, the mother and son planted the orange seedlings in the garden and worked hard to cultivate them.

Three or four years later, the Tianju seedlings grew up and bore fruit. They then gave the propagated seedlings to people in nearby villages for planting, and the fruits were given to people to treat their illnesses.

Everyone thinks that the fairy is Guanyin, the savior of the world, and the orange fruit is the hand of Guanyin in the sky.

Therefore, people call this fruit Buddha's hand.
