In here, you all will be watching a Series of 4 Videos on the Taoist Salvation Ritual.
In Taoism, this type of Salvation is known as Deng Tai Shuo Fa (登臺說法) aka Ascending the Salvation Platform for Preaching the Wandering Souls or Zhen Ji Gu Hun (賑濟孤魂) aka Salvaging the Suffering Wanderings, some known as Ling Bao Shi Shi Ke Yi (靈寶施食科儀).
In the Videos, you will see how the Leading Taoist Priest transformed himself into Heavenly Lord Tai Yi (太乙救苦天尊) after wearing the Five Elders Headgear for the Salvaging of the Souls.
After the Transformation, he will start to enhance the Items and then throw down the Platform for the Wanderings to grab it and then Ascend to the Spiritual Realm for enjoying Eternal Blessing (東極長樂界).
whats the purpose of swaying the 幡？to attract wanderings?
ReplyDeleteOne of the reasons is to attract the Wanderings. If not, no wanderings will be able to come near to the Platform for Salvation.
