This "Buddhism Funeral Sect" is really eye-opening! This book is a manuscript of the 32nd year of Guangxu, with 70 pages of content, telling the way of handling the funeral of people in Buddhism, which can be described as a great treasure of Buddhist culture at that time.
This "Buddhist Funeral Sect" is not only about the handling of funerals, but also shows the beliefs, customs and rituals of Buddhism at that time.
Through this book, we can learn about the mindset and practices of Buddhists when facing life and death, as well as their understanding of life and death.
I find this book very valuable, not only because of its historical value, but also because of the Buddhist philosophical ideas it conveys. By understanding Buddhist funeral rituals, we can better understand the connotation and spirit of Buddhist culture.
Of course, there is some controversy about this book. Some may argue that Buddhism should not focus too much on death and mourning, but more on the practice of life and compassion.
But I think that funeral handling is also an integral part of Buddhist culture, not only to respect the deceased, but also to comfort the living.
So, I think the book "Buddhism Funeral Sect" is very worth reading. Not only does it help us understand history and culture, but it also allows us to think deeply about the meaning of life and death. If you are interested in Buddhist culture, or want to understand the philosophy of life and death, you may wish to read this book, I believe you will have a lot of gains!
