Hundred Blessings Meaning
"Hundred Blessings" refers to the various blessings and benefits gained through practice and accumulation of good deeds. In Buddhism, blessings are accumulated through good deeds such as practice, charity, and keeping precepts. Each good deed is regarded as a seed that can bear fruit in the future. Accumulating blessings can not only bring material wealth but also enable practitioners to gain spiritual peace and happiness. Blessings can help people stay away from pain and improve the quality of life.
Fu Character
♥ Happiness ♥ Blessing ♥ Fortune ♥ Luck ♥
The Chinese character Fu (福) means happiness, blessing, good fortune, and good luck. People across China have the tradition to paste this character on their doors or windows during the Spring Festival to greet the Chinese Lunar New Year. They believe doing this will bring good fortune. It is written on diagonal square red paper and the character is usually pasted upside-down. Since the word for "arrive" in Chinese sounds the same as the word for "upside-down", pasting the character upside-down signifies that "good fortune has arrived". Pasting the character upside-down on a door or doorpost thus translates into a wish for prosperity to descend upon a dwelling. The Fu character can also be used in jewelry to represent the desire that one's good luck will be expansive.
