Tantric pedestrians often wear Gawu around their necks, which is very convenient to carry out and can be taken out to pray at any time. Gawu is vacuum, with a doorway-like opening, where small Buddha statues, silk tablets with scriptures, even Buddhist relics, and polished articles read by monks can be placed. More importantly, the living Buddha's hair and clothes fragments can be put in for sincere prayer. It can be said that there is a Buddha in the heart and a Buddha everywhere!
In the eyes of Tibetans, Gawu is not only a begging temple, but also an amulet. Take it with you, just like the Buddha is always by your side, and you won't encounter any difficulties and obstacles. Tibetan couples often exchange their own Gawu, which is like a token of love in their eyes. When they exchange Gawu, they exchange their own ideas. At the same time, please God bless their smooth love and finally get married.
Gawu's dress style is also very particular. Men and women have different ways. A woman can wear a necklace or silk belt around her neck. A noble woman of grade four or above can put Gawu on a bun with her, which also shows her official position. The man hung Gawu between his left armpit and his left arm. Bian Xiao thinks this may be because it is closest to the heart and symbolizes the meaning of the wearer's piety.
Not only clothes, but also men and women. Gawu worn by women is oval or round. In the martial arts, women must wear the biggest martial arts, and the outside should be silver. Men generally use square, copper and gold.
Gawu is beautifully made, which means very pious. This is a temple that Tibetans carry with them. Bian Xiao had to sigh the mood of Tibetan pilgrimage, and he was really pious. What do you think of this?
