起源
汉明帝下令修建一 座庙宇，一尊佛像， 作为一个圣经知识 库。信徒相信佛的 力量可以驱散黑暗。 所以皇帝明帝下令 显示点亮的灯笼,后 来成为元宵节。
Emperor Mingdi ordered that a temple be built to house a statue of Buddha and serve as a repository for the scriptures. Followers believe that the power of Buddha can dispel darkness. So Emperor Mingdi ordered his subjects to display lighted lanterns during what was to become the Lantern Festival.
