Ghost's soul view

The eastern concept of soul has always believed that the dead must rest in peace before they can enter the next reincarnation. Therefore, those who have not passed away smoothly either cannot find someone to be reborn and become wandering ghosts, or become ghosts who die with hatred, or ghosts who are attached to this world. This outlook on life and death, which originated from Buddhism and Taoism, has influenced eastern countries, including Chinese mainland, Hongkong, Taiwan Province Province, Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asian countries. People always fear the dead. Ancestors' memorial tablets, grave placement, repair and regular grave sweeping must not be saved, otherwise losing the protection of ancestors will not only bring wealth, but also bring bad luck. People in China attach great importance to the theory of geomantic omen, and even the Yin House (where the dead live) also talks about geomantic omen. If you are unlucky and haunted by ghosts, you will often ask Mr. Feng Shui for help, and then ask the Taoist priest to drive away the unclean things. China people believe that pure-hearted people can't see ghosts. If they recite Wen Tianxiang's righteous songs and have nothing to hide, ghosts will not bother them. "If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be surprised to knock at the door in the middle of the night" is the truth.

Japanese ghost culture

In Japanese society, people dare not speak ill of the dead. In addition to pure awe, this idea probably stems from the inherent tradition of "hatred and fear" in Japan. There are many temples in Japan, which are specially built for people who hate death. In the Japanese concept, if the grievances of the deceased are not well comforted, their souls will retaliate against the living society. The famous resentful spirit in Japanese history should be the first to promote Prince Lin. Prince Haruka is the younger brother of the 50th Japanese Emperor Emperor Kanmu (reigned 78 1-806). He was once appointed as the Crown Prince, but was deposed because of his participation in the assassination of Fujiwara, CEO of Nagaoka Kyoko Palace. Prince Zao Liang insisted on his innocence and died of hunger strike. After the death of Prince Zaoliang, Emperor Kanmu named his son Prince Andian as the Prince. However, since then, Emperor Kanmu's family suffered from constant disasters, the Empress Dowager and the Empress passed away one after another, and Prince Andian was also terminally ill. The fortune teller asked Zhan, who said it was the resentment of Prince Zaoliang, so he built a temple for Prince Zaoliang and named him a Taoist.

In addition, famous ghosts in Japanese history include Sugawara no michizane and Akihito. Sugawara Dao was a real scholar, politician and official minister in the early period of Heian. 90 1 year, was transferred to Taizai prefecture, and died of depression two years later. Legend has it that after his death, the demons showed their magical powers, which made the ruling and opposition parties restless. Later, people built the Kitano Tianman Palace for him to comfort the soul of heaven. Now 2 1 century, Japan is full of palaces, and he is regarded as the god of learning by the Japanese.

Akihito was originally the 75th Japanese Emperor, and he ascended the throne at the age of 5. At the age of 23, Yukio Hatoyama, the nominal father (in fact, he was born in Daixian Academy, the wife of his grandfather Emperor Baihe and Yukio Hatoyama), was forced to abdicate. Later, he and the left minister Lai Changhe Fujiwara jointly launched a coup, which was the famous "Baoyuan Rebellion" in Japanese history. After his failure, he was exiled to Zanqi, where he copied five Mahayana Buddhist classics and asked to be sent to Yu Na Temple in Kyoto, but the imperial court refused. Emperor Chongde was so angry that he bit his finger and wrote an oath. He wants to be the fate of Japan's great demon, "taking the emperor as the people and the people as the emperor." People believe that his curse has really come true. After the death of Emperor Chongde, Pingjia usurped power over the royal family, and then began the puppet politics of Wu family, which regarded the royal family as a doll for nearly 700 years.

Akihito's anger, known as "the first Japanese demon king", is frightening. Before he ascended the throne, Emperor Meiji specially sent envoys to praise the dedication of the Emperor Baifeng of Germany and Germany, and brought the gods dedicated to the Emperor Fude to the Baifeng Shrine in Kyoto. This long-standing "fear of injustice" in Japanese history has made most Japanese keep their mouths shut about the bad words of the deceased. This kind of consciousness permeates all levels of Japanese culture and even the laws that control the modern social order.

For example, the newspaper once reported that a couple rented a house somewhere through the introduction of a real estate agent. Soon after they moved in, their wives were often harassed by ghosts. To find out the cause and effect, it turned out that a chess player committed suicide in this house, but the real estate agent didn't tell them about it. So the couple want to take the housing agency to court. I wonder if it is legal or not? The lawyer who was invited to prepare this lawsuit firmly said to the couple, "It won't work. Because death is dignified, no matter what kind of death is dignified. Even debt collection companies don't like to collect debts from the families of the deceased, because they are afraid that disturbing the peace of the deceased will lead to bad luck.

Even the deceased, we living people, still have to respect him for three points. Therefore, in Japanese cultural psychology, death is not "lighter than a feather, heavier than Mount Tai" as China people say. For the Japanese, death is an all-round affirmation, giving the dead a completely positive dignity.
