Ukugubha umkhosi we-Hungry Ghost

Imikhosi ifinyelela phezulu ngesikhathi se "Ghost Day", usuku lwama-15 lwenyanga "yeghost" - yisikhathi esihle kakhulu sokuhamba edolobheni bese ubona lokhu okulandelayo kwenzeka:
Ukuzijabulisa komphakathi. Izigaba zezingoma ezibizwa ngokuthi i- getai ziyasungulwa , kanye nama-opera ase-China ( phor thor ) kanye nemiboniso yamadokhumenti abanjelwe kokubili nabaphilayo nabafileyo.
Ababukeli bashiya umugqa wokuqala bengenalutho ukuze bahambisane nemimoya. (Kubhekwe ifomu elibi ukuze uhlale emgqeni wangaphambili, ngakho-ke ungaxwayiswa.)
Ukuzijabulisa okwedlulele okwedlula i-karaoke kanye nemincintiswano yomdanso kubanjwe kulezi zinyathelo, kungenzeka ukuthi imimoya yalabo abasanda kufa.
E- Singapore , uzothola imisebenzi ye- getai ehamba phambili kakhulu e-Chinatown, Joo Chiat , no-Ang Mo Kio.
Ngayinye yalezi ziteshi ingafinyeleleka kalula yi-MRT - ngokusebenzisa iziteshi zamagama we-Chinatown no-Ang Mo Kio, kanye ne-Paya Lebar esiteshini se-Joo Chiat.
E- Penang , ama-opera aseShayina kanye nemidlalo yokudlala iqhutshwa ngezilimi ezintathu ezahlukene - iHokkien, iTechew kanye neCantonese - futhi igxile ikakhulukazi endaweni yaseGeorge Town .
Ukushisa isihogo imali. Ukuze uvuselele izihlobo zabo ezifile, isiShayina sizokhipha ukudla futhi sishise ama-joss, "imali yesihogo" (ama-money money fake), kanye nezinguquko zephepha zezimpahla ezisemhlabeni njengeTV, izimoto, kanye nefenisha.
AmaShayina, abakholelwa ukuthi okhokho bangabasiza nabo namabhizinisi abo ngaphesheya kwethuneni, yenza lokhu ukuqinisekisa izibusiso eziqhubekayo nokuvikelwa kusuka ngaphesheya.
Iminikelo yokudla ishiywe emphakathini. Iminikelo yokudla nayo ishiywe emigwaqweni yomgwaqo nasezindlini zomgwaqo, nasezindlini zangaphandle. Lezi zindaba zivimbela izimpumputhe ezilambile ukuba zingene ezindaweni zokuhlala - emva kwakho konke, ngokudla nje kulinde ngaphandle komnyango, ngubani ofuna ukungena ngaphakathi?
Vakashela amathempeli aseTaosi asekhaya kanye nezimakethe ezimanzi ukuze ubone ukubukwa okumangalisayo kakhulu kweminikelo yokudla ye-Hungry Ghost. Lezi ziboniso zivame ukubhekwa yi-effigy yoMholi we-Hungry Ghosts, i- Taai Si Wong , othola ama-dibs kuqala kokudla etafuleni futhi agcine izimpumputhe ezincane emgqeni, zibavimbele ukwenza okungalungile ngesikhathi sabo eMhlabeni .
I-Penang idonsa iTaai Si Wong enkulu kunazo zonke eMalaysia, ehlelwa njalo eMark Street eBukit Mertajam.
Lezi zindawo ngokuvamile zivame ukukhwabanisa, njengoba umoya uzoba mnandi ngephunga lokutshisa ama-joss. I-giant enkulu "idrako" i-joss ifaka ngaphezulu kwezinti ezincane, njengezinsika zamakholi ezinotshani obude. Ama-joss amahlumela amakhulu ajwayele ukufakwa ngabamabhizinisi, abafuna ukuthola imimoya ukuze amabhizinisi abo enze ngcono.
Ngosuku lwama-30 lwenyanga yesikhombisa, izimpumputhe ziyabuyela eGehena, futhi amasango e-Underworld avaliwe. Ukubona izimpumputhe zivaliwe, iminikelo yamaphepha kanye nezinye izimpahla zishiswa emlilweni omkhulu. I- Taai Si Wong effigy ishiswa kanye nazo zonke ezinye izimpahla ukuze zimbuyisele eGehena.
