Opening of Heavenly Gate is here again.

Once a year and on every Lunar 6th Month.

This year, it falls on the 1st of July 2006.

This is the best chance for us, the humans to request for blessings from the Heavenly Immortals.

In the past, Emperors, Imperial Officers, normal citizens will prepared good offerings for in-order to pay their respect to the Heavenly Immortals.

Folk's also believed that, on this day, Jade Emperor will do an Inspection on the Mortal World, after this day, he will fixed the lucks, cycle change for the next 6 Mths.

After this day, the next Inspection will fall on the 25th of Lunar 12th Mth, which is after the day where Kitchen Deity returned to Heaven to summit his report.

Bro Jave, what could or should be done on this day? I am asking in term of the formalities such as what to pray? how to pray and where or which direction to pray to?

Hi Bro,

a few things to look into.

on the 25th day of the 12th Mth, we shall make our home as bright as possible, clean and clear, no arguements and remember after you wake up, make urself clean and then sincerely offer your 1st set of incense to the Heaven and then your home Deities.

Same goes to the Tian Men Kai. Actually on this day, there's a specified time stated for it. But to be more accurate, the whole day is dedicated to Tian Men Kai, so what time, what place or what ever you offer, the Heaven will get your request or your sincerity.

No need to prepare much, just a set of nice incense, the Heaven will be able to get your request. :P

n nt 2 forget ur sincerity

Thanks for the info..... :rolleyes:
