00:00Every Lunar New Year, there are a lot of traditions made by the Chinese.

00:04This is one of the good brothers' ways to remind their loved ones

00:10and for us to understand this tradition better, let's watch this.

00:16Every year on Lunar New Year,

00:20one of the traditions is burning paper money or also called joss paper.

00:26This tradition is rich in symbolism

00:29that's why this tradition has been passed down for hundreds of years to different generations.

00:34This has been a tradition of our grandmothers, grandfathers, ancestors before.

00:40That's why until now, we're just duplicating it until we make it stable.

00:47Burning joss paper is a traditional Chinese Taoist practice

00:52where it symbolizes sending money, clothes, and other materials to the loved ones.

00:59On Chinese New Year, there's a set of paper offered to the good brothers.

01:05These are the good brothers that we can't see,

01:08that we need to remember so that we won't get sick for the whole year.

01:13There's a special paper offered for that.

01:16This tradition is not only done every Lunar New Year,

01:19but they also do it on other occasions.

01:23There are different types of joss paper depending on what you want.

01:28Some are for business, some are for wealth, and many more.

01:32They say, the more the better.

01:35The more joss paper you burn, the luckier you'll be.

01:38It depends on the gods that you're offering it to.

01:41If it's for the good brothers,

01:44it should also be for that saint.

01:46Because the Chinese saints are more than hundreds.

01:49To my fellow countrymen, if you want to burn paper money,

01:52try it. There's nothing wrong with trying it.

01:56If it's for good luck, you don't need charms,

02:00you don't need anything like wishing paper, prayer.

02:04Just try to offer it.

02:06Maybe this is the key to your success.

02:10The burning of joss paper is a tradition

02:12where the desire is to show sincerity

02:15and to give respect to our loved ones.

02:18That's why from then until now,

02:21this tradition will not be lost

02:23in important occasions in the lives of the Chinese

02:26and those who believe in it.

02:28Happy New Year to everyone!
