釋氏要覽 3.438

3.438

杜氏云。唐開元二十年。勅仕庶家。許寒食上墓。同拜掃禮。今釋子不可習俗。貴免葷酒男女。參雜。貽於譏嫌也。或二親墓須去者必焚香。或呪土呪食。撒於墓所。或高聲念尊勝等。俾幽魂蒙益。即不可與骨肉同座。飲食歡[竺-二+(犮-乂+又)]（禮云。哭則不歌也）。

Du [You] states: "In the twentieth year of the Kaiyuan era of the Tang, an edict permitted official and commoner households to visit graves on Cold Food Day, sharing the rites of bowing and sweeping." Nowadays, Śākya disciples must not adopt this secular custom, so as to avoid meat, alcohol, and the mingling of men and women, which invites criticism and suspicion. If one must go to the graves of one's two parents, one must burn incense, or consecrate earth or food with dhāraṇīs to scatter at the grave site, or recite the *Uṣṇīṣavijayā* and so forth in a loud voice, so that the subterranean spirits receive benefit. One must not sit together with relatives, eating, drinking, and merrymaking. (The rites state: "When weeping, one does not sing.")
