Why can’t you offer pears? What are the folk meanings?
People think that pears have the meaning of scolding and separation.Therefore, it cannot be used as an offering.But this statement is not correct, in fact, most of the fruits can be used as offerings when we offer fruit, as long as we ensure that it is clean enough.
Why can’t I offer pears
In some places, people say that giving pears and offering pears is not good, because pears have the homophonic sound of "li", which makes people think of separation.Therefore, pears cannot go to the table to find relatives and friends, especially those who are close and do not want to be separated.Therefore, pears naturally cannot be offered to Buddha, which means bad luck.In addition, some people say that bananas cannot be offered to Buddha either.Because this place "eat bananas" is a rude word to swear.If you use this as an offering to the gods, you are not scolding the gods, so you can’t offer it.
What is the best choice for fruit offerings
It is important to be respectful and clean when offering fruit in front of the statue.Therefore, the fruit offered must be fresh and clean, mature and intact, and must not be damaged or rotten.Otherwise, the first expression is disrespectful, and the second expression is not satisfactory.There are not too many restrictions on the types of fruits provided, just the food we eat every day.But the smell should be fragrant and light.Commonly worshipped fruits include:apples, bananas, oranges, oranges, peaches, grapes, etc.However, the more common saying is that any fruit can be offered to the Buddha, and the important thing is to be sincere and respectful.
