The 7-day festival, according to Cambodian tradition, we always celebrate, especially when a family has a member Death is less inevitable than the seven-day celebration. We know that Buddhism speaks of the karma that the deceased person always carries with him good and bad deeds. And physical shadows.
To know a specific cultural point in Cambodian society, it requires specific study, and it is even more difficult if Want to know where this ritual custom comes from? In fact, we Cambodians have a habit of celebrating this 7-day festival almost everywhere, with confirmation related to the story There is a story as follows:
When Preah Samma Samput, the teacher, lived in Wat Chet Pon, the temple of Anath Bandith Sethy, he was given many monks Who venerated religion in his way. There are many clans that come to be vegan, including the clans of the poor, the rich, the wealthy, all the castes of all castes who give up their homes. Came to build a shrine as a priest in Wat Chet Poun, that is, they dropped those classes, including a monk Preah Namitasat came from a poor family, but he was sincere in Buddhism.
He was always upset that he was born into a poor family and did not have a new chivor like other priests. Once upon a time, there was a relative who was generous to Preah Rattanatray, and when he saw that Tissathera was using an old chivor, he was healed. A new chivor for offering to him. Speaking of Bhikkhu Tissathear, after receiving the new chivor bag, he was happy and happy, thinking that it was a new thing, so don't be lazy to wear it. Well, remember when there is a big festival to use.
The Buddha enlightened that beings can not determine their own age just to die, it is not regular. He expressed that Eternal, the same monk, after he received a new chivor not long ago, suddenly died Disappeared, causing the eyes and eyes to be born as a large flea on the beak.
Speaking of the monks who lived in the pagoda and did not see the body for a long time, they went to see Mr. Sing's place and realized that The monk was already dead, while all the monks saw the chivor nearby to share and use, suddenly saw a flea Big is crawling up and down, it seems to prevent anyone from taking the chivor, the monks see why it is so strange Going to meet the deity who lives in Wat Chet Pon, then he performed a sermon celebrating the story of Bhikkhu Tissathear. To the monks that all beings, when all beings are about to die, if that person remembers something emotionally and can make that person's spirit Stick to that thing, just like this monk, because he loves and enjoys his unused chivor. Suddenly he died and was born as a flea, as the monks saw.
However, according to other opinions, it is also mentioned that in the main book of Buddhism, the book of the Trinity, Samma Samput It is not mandatory to celebrate 7 days, 49 days, 100 days, 1 year, 3 years after death. The suggestion that Cambodian society may be influenced by the organization of this ceremony from the Chinese who came to live in connection with Khmer people. But in detail, the organization of Khmer ceremonies is different from Chinese ones. It is observed that nowadays Cambodians often celebrate 7 days and 100 days. As a matter of fact, anniversaries are celebrated annually according to time or resources. Also.
