Why so many people burning hell notes today
-
being reborn in hell, suffer right. since when they can receive hell notes from humans one? beings in hell are being tortured day and night, so I am wondering where the concept of hell money came from?
1) will they receive the hell money burnt for them?
2) will they get to spend since they are being tortured day and night
3) What can they spend on in hell?
-
Devas or heavenly beings regard human bodies and our food as filthy, coarse and dirty. so do you think they will receive things that are considered as filthy and dirty to them? dun think so.

the only thing that I don't understand is that why they must burn on the drain covers on the walkway even though got proper bins nearby..
Because they don't want to mix with other people's offerings. just like if u go wedding dinner u will bao your own ang pow to give to the couple, u don't put your money inside other people's ang pow right? -

taoists burn notes. i understand buddhists do not burn notes. i think heavenly gods do not need them.
those being burn are not hell money or silver currency ingot paper. they are gold ingot paper to represent gold, to offer to the heavenly king. as a form of paying tribute to an emperor. -
there is a story behind the praying to jade emperor on 9th day of new year
The ninth day of the New Year is a day for Chinese to offer prayers to the Jade Emperor of Heaven (天宮) in the Taoist Pantheon. The ninth day is traditionally the birthday of the Jade Emperor. This day is especially important to Hokkiens. Come midnight of the eighth day of the new year, Hokkiens will offer thanks giving prayers to the Emperor of Heaven. Offerings will include sugarcane as it was the sugarcane that had protected the Hokkiens from certain extermination generations ago. Incense, tea, fruit, vegetarian food or roast pig, and paper gold is served as a customary protocol for paying respect to an honored person.
