Puchong Hungry Ghost Festival
So last Saturday (14 August 2010) I pass by nearby shop lots seeing some kind of a festival. It turns out to be the Hungry Ghost Festival. It’s an annual festival held by Chinese – all around the world, I guess – to celebrate ghosts coming to human world.
Why celebrate, you say? Instead of run away scared to hell? Well, it’s more of a respect rather than celebrate. Chinese held this festival to respect those ghosts who might be someone they knew. Dead uncle, long gone grandma, and so on. So there is no need to be scared because there is no ghost it’s just a festival.
According to the legend, they were “released” from hell into our world exactly mid of 7th month of lunar calendar so that they can “enjoy” our offerings, which is a luxury in the underworld. You can imagine the joy, literally. After one full month, they will “return” to the underworld.
