Master Lu, I am about to get married. What should we be aware of?<\/p>\n
\u2022 It is best to have the wedding on a date that is an even number according to both the lunar calendar and the Gregorian calendar.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 You should be mindful of your speech before the wedding, and when you are in the bridal room or the newlywed room\/house. As a Buddhist practitioner, your speech and actions should be polite and controlled.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 The bridal room or the newlywed room\/house should not be disorganised. It should be clean and tidy. It is also necessary to maintain a lively atmosphere.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 You can recite 7 Little Houses and address them to the \u201cKarmic Creditor of the house of <full name of the occupant>\u201d.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 In your new home, you can place landscape paintings of water and mountains, as they will create a positive energy field.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 You can place your enlarged wedding photographs in your living room for a week or longer, but do not display it for more than a month.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 In the bedroom, avoid placing photographs of both of you together. Nevertheless, you can have individual photographs of each person.<\/p>\n
\n\u2022 It is best to have a vegetarian wedding banquet. If this is not possible, you should try your best to avoid serving freshly killed animals. However, if this is unavoidable, then you need to complete more recitations of the Amitabha Pure Land Rebirth Mantra. It would be best that you also recite the Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance after the banquet.<\/p>\n
