What is the use of an Ancestral Tablet?

 Ancestor Prayer or worship is the most common practice in Chinese folk religion. And the dead ones are most commonly venerated through the use of ancestral tablets. The ancestral tablet displays an ink inscription of the predecessor’s name. It is decorated with wooden decorated support and a box. 

 

The ancestral tablet is considered an effigy for their spirit. In simple words, it is treated like an almost physical human. These panels are fed fruits, tea and pastries.

 

Before approaching their ancestors, worshipping descendants will light incense sticks. Incense is thought to help in prayer transmission and communication with spirits. In the living room of a typical traditional Chinese home, there will be an ancestor tablet and/or shrine.

 

The Chinese have kept the habit of enshrining ancestral tablets for our forefathers and mothers since ancient times. It is a symbol of filial piety, reminding us to remember and respect our ancestors, and to worship festivals such as their death anniversary, Qing Ming, Festivals, and New Year's Eve.

Customers can venerate their ancestors as a symbol of filial piety by choosing from more than ten designs in each particular unique suite.

The main role of an ancestral tablet is that it gives a great and countless deal of reverence to the dead ones even after their death. Most importantly, it makes loved ones and relatives of the dead one feel relaxed.  In this way, people also feel that they are supporting the dead loved one even after death. On the other hand, relatives feel them around because of the ancestral tablet.
