Giải Mã Tục "Chít Khăn Tang" Cho Cây Ở Đồng Bằng Bắc Bộ - Đông Tây Kim Cổ

In the North-Eastern region, there is a tradition of cremation of dead trees. Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know when, but in many places in the North-Eastern region, there is a tradition of cremation of dead trees. This tradition occurs when in a family, there is a missing senior member, then the big trees in the yard of the owner are also cremated. So how did this story come about? Are there any spiritual messages behind this ancient custom? And does the tree really have a soul, even know pain, sadness, despair, etc. like a human being? Right after this, Mai Ly and Dong Tay Kim Co would like to invite you to talk together and learn about this topic. Go find the answer in a strange custom. When hearing about the ancient custom of cremation of dead trees, perhaps there will be a few people who are skeptical. It is considered an ancient custom, and there is something strange about it. However, according to some articles of Vietnamese cultural researchers, we were really surprised to learn that the custom of cremation of dead trees not only occurs in regions in the North-Eastern region, but also in a part of other ethnic minorities in the Northeast, Northwest, such as San Dieu, San Chay, and a part of Westerners, etc. The custom of cremation of dead trees has also become familiar to local people because they believe that the tree is a human being, and when there are people in the family, the tree must also be cremated. In the Northeast region, many places still have the custom that when there are dead people in the house, in addition to cremating the tree, when the children from the grave of the deceased return home, they will have to bring each person a piece of land taken from the grave of the deceased to throw into the big trees in the garden, even throw it into the buffalo, the chicken, in the hope that the soul of the deceased will feed the tree, the animal, from there to serve the tree, the animal, to develop. In Thanh Son, Phu Tho, or some places in the Northeast, the custom of cremation of dead trees has been kept for many generations. Many old people also believe that the tree also needs to be taken care of and cherished like spirits. So the people in this area cremate the tree by scratching the mud on the body of the tree. When there are people in the house, they immediately have to shut the door and buy white mud to make a powder to mix with water, then use a broom or hand to scrape a circle around the body of the tree. The special thing is that when there is a funeral, only the elderly, local people in the inner tribe are allowed to stand up and do this. It is also known that in many areas, when the family has a funeral, people do not use mud to scratch the tree, but use a white towel to cover the tree to let the tree bear the funeral. Not only in rural areas, right in Hanoi, the people of Chieu Khuc village, Tan Chieu commune, Thang Chi county still pass on the custom of scratching the funeral for the tree. The people of Chieu Khuc village love to cherish famous trees all over the region, so they don't know when the people of Chieu Khuc village still tell each other that if the family has a dead person and the last tree in the garden is not scratched, it will wither and die. Therefore, in the mind of the people of Chieu Khuc, they always plant the funeral tree like a saint. Talking to the newspaper, a farmer woman in Tan Chieu commune, Thang Chi, Hanoi said that her family has a tradition of planting the funeral tree for three lifetimes. Since her grandfather was still alive, he always told her to play the funeral tree very delicately and artfully. Once you have played the tree, you have to plant the tree like a friend. Even like a relative in the family, then you can keep the tree for a long time. That's why there is a tradition for the tree to wither when a relative in the family passes away. Not only does she share the tradition of her village, she also tells us some stories about the tree. That is, in the village, there was a family with a job as a gardener, but the tree was blamed for the death of a relative. Just because she accidentally forgot to plant the funeral tree, after a short time, the old tree in the garden naturally withered, withered and died gradually. One thing is more difficult than if the tree did not die, it would naturally use the leaves, wither and die gradually. This is a rare thing that has appeared since ancient times until now, but no one can explain. I say more. According to the elders living in Chieu Khuc village, it is not clear when this custom came from, but most people just do it naturally. The reason for the tree to wither and wither because it cannot be buried, an elder said that the tree is also a living entity with a soul, so when there are relatives in the family, the tree is also sad and they are also buried equally as everyone in the family. To be honest, when we hear about this custom, we are very curious and want to learn more about the concept of a spiritual object. A tree is usually worthless, but for those who love trees, it is familiar like a relative in the house. See the tree as a soul Talking to a journalist, a cultural researcher said that previously, this custom was quite popular in the Northeastern region, but it was lost and now only a few places still keep it. This custom originates from the belief that all things have a soul. Accordingly, this custom is considered to have a soul, so in many places, people often build temples under the roots of the tree to pray for the tree to live long. According to cultural researchers, the custom of burying the tree originates from the concept of seeing the tree as a spiritual object. On New Year's Day, in some regions, people also perform the ritual of burying the tree. However, on New Year's Day, there are people who carry an umbrella around the house, draw the same name with the umbrella and turn to the front of the gate to chase away the ghost. In the past, people often thought that the tree was also a person. In a family with a deceased person, the relative had to be buried and wear a shawl, and the tree was also buried. On the other hand, the burial of the tree originated from the concept of a family with a deceased person. Thinking about the sharing of cultural researchers above, we remember the story that Feng Shui expert Nguyen Hong Quang, the Center for Human Potential Research, used to share. He also mentioned the concept of a spiritual object and said that there are objects that appear to be worthless but also have souls. When a person is attached to an object, it becomes close to the soul and even feels like a human being. And perhaps the concept that the tree is also like a human being at some point has gone into the spiritual realm. Trees are also buried for the Lord. The explanation of the origin of the custom of burial for the tree, Professor Tran Lam Bien, a traditional cultural researcher, said that the custom of burial for the tree was because the Vietnamese had an agricultural civilization so they were attached to the soil, the tree, and from then on, there was a belief in the earth, the tree. The burial of the tree is a way to show the harmony between man and the tree. The ancient concept of the soul of man and the soul of the tree is the opposite. When a person dies, the tree is also sad. Therefore, people will bury the tree with the intention of helping it to be buried for the Lord. However, people usually only bury trees that have been planted for many years in the garden because only then will there be a certain harmony between the soul of man and the soul of the tree. The tree will die when it is buried. The people of the Solomon Islands are a tribe of the Malay people located in the east of Papua New Guinea. They still worship an ancient custom like this. If there is an ancient tree in the forest that needs to be cut but it is too big and cannot be cut with a knife, the people of this place can still cut it down The villagers will gather and shout to curse that ancient tree by cursing it with very negative words. They do this every day continuously until about a month later, the tree will die or even fall to the ground. You just need to curse it continuously. Although this ancient folk story has not yet been realized, it also brings us a lot to think about. Does the tree have feelings? Such a negative attitude can really take away the vitality of a tree or even of an animal or not? Do plants and animals also feel pain? Plants also have feelings like humans. If the above story is still not enough to make you and your friends believe that only humans have feelings, have spirituality, but trees also have feelings, have optimism, and even read people's thoughts, here are some very scientific and practical experiments to prove it. Clive Baxter was a naval serviceman in World War II and then worked at the U.S. Rebellion with a specialty in interrogation In 1948, he joined the CIA. Here, he invented the interrogation machine with the famous Baxter technique that is still widely used to this day. For the subject of humans, he discovered that the interrogation tested three factors – electricity, breathing and the level of blood sweat. If a person is worried that the number will increase or decrease, but for Baxter's real friends, it was only considered a success on February 2, 1966. That night, in a moment of excitement, Baxter decided to connect an interrogation machine to the leaves of the mulberry tree, also known as mulberry, then water the tree. He just wanted to see how long it took for the trees to reduce electricity and increase conductivity, which is a simple physical experiment. But the machine had drawn a curve that matched the curve of a person's mood. It seemed to be very happy when he was asked to drink water. Baxter continued to do other experiments. He decided to burn a leaf of that tree. The numbers on the machine discovered the lie and showed a strong reaction of the tree. These numbers are similar to when people feel scared. Too suddenly, Baxter continued to do many other examples and found that the plant also had feelings, not less than humans, even more sensitive. The experiment above shows that a person's brain can read Baxter's thoughts, which is something that most humans can't do. Another scientific experiment took place recently. IKEA, a well-known Swiss company, conducted an experiment at a school. The results of this experiment shocked the whole world. At the campus of a school, there were two green plants. Both plants were placed in a glass cage, taken care of in the same way with the same amount of water, fertilizer and sunlight. The only difference was that the students were guided to blame one plant while praising and showing love to the other plant. After 30 days, the lives of the two plants were saved. The plant on the left was paralyzed and became weak, while the plant on the right received praise and love and grew very green. The above stories and experiments have shown that seemingly all creatures have souls, not low creatures as we used to think. According to Buddhism, all creatures in the world have to go through the six stages of reincarnation. A life in this life is human, but in the next life it can be an animal, a tree, a stone, a creature or a ghost, depending on the virtue and karma of that life. That's why all creatures have souls. Only those lives are human and their emotions are different from ours. We can't feel them, so we assume that they don't exist. Dear friends, what do you think about this topic?
