the origin of the lantern festival
the lantern festival is a traditional festival in China, and the formation of the lantern festival custom has a long process, which is rooted in the folk custom of turning on lights to pray for blessings. Turning on the lights to pray usually begins on the 14th night of the first month, and on the 15th night, it is a "positive light". People point lanterns, also known as "sending lanterns", to carry out the activities of offering sacrifices to the gods and praying for blessings.
The introduction of Buddhist culture in the Eastern Han Dynasty also played an important role in promoting the custom of Lantern Festival. During the Yongping period of Emperor Han, in order to promote Buddhism, Emperor Han ordered "burning lanterns to show Buddha" in palaces and monasteries on the fifteenth night of the first month. Therefore, the custom of burning lanterns on the fifteenth night of the first month gradually spread in China with the expansion of the influence of Buddhist culture and the addition of Taoist culture.
