臘八節(jié)的由來有兩個傳說。一說佛祖釋迦牟尼成佛前進(jìn)山修行.十二月初八這 天因饑餓勞累栽倒路旁， 被一牧羊女發(fā)現(xiàn)，用大米粥救活，使他大徹大悟.得道成佛。

One said that the Ming emperor Zhu Yuan-hour cattle to the rich because the rich bracket was broken off in a room, three days did not give anything to eat, he was unbearable hunger. Searched everywhere. Finally found a rat hole, dig out the beans, grain and other food, Zhu Chengyu consumption, find it very sweet. Later, the emperor made the emperor, thinking a child eat porridge and that the taste of Dayton, he ordered his eunuchs to use a variety of food cooked up a pot of sugar porridge, feast courtiers, after North Korea Wenwubaiguan emulated and passed civil society, Sui Cheng A holiday customs. By Zhu Yuan sugar porridge eighth day of the days of the twelfth lunar month, so this porridge is also called "laba porridge".

一說，明朝皇帝朱元璋小時給財主放牛，因牛腿摔斷被財主關(guān)在一間屋子里，3天沒給飯吃， 他饑餓難忍.到處搜尋.終于發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個老鼠洞，從中挖掘出豆、谷等各種糧食，煮成粥食用，覺得非常香甜。后來朱元璋做了皇帝，想起小時候吃那頓粥 的味道，就命太監(jiān)用各種糧食煮了一鍋糖粥，歡宴群臣，后朝中文武百官爭相效仿并傳入民間，遂成了一種節(jié)日習(xí)俗。因朱元璋吃糖粥的日子是臘月初八， 所以這粥也就叫"臘八粥"了。

"Laba" is a grand festival of Buddhism. Before the liberation around the temple for Buddha's Birthday will be held prayers, and, like the Buddha into the Road, before the story of The Legend of chylous Munv Xian, with fragrant valley, fruit, etc. porridge worship Buddha, called "laba porridge."

Some monasteries in the twelfth lunar month is said to eighth day before the hand-held by the monks alms bowl, street alms, will be collected rice, chestnuts, dates, nuts and other ingredients laba porridge distributed to the poor.

“臘八”是佛教的盛大節(jié)日。解放以前各地佛寺作浴佛會，舉行誦經(jīng)，并效仿釋迦牟尼成道前， 牧女獻(xiàn)乳糜的傳說故事，用香谷、果實(shí)等煮粥供佛，稱“臘八粥”。并將臘八粥贈送給門徒及善男信女們，以后便在民間相沿成俗。據(jù)說有的寺院于臘 月初八以前由僧人手持缽盂，沿街化緣，將收集來的米、栗、棗、果仁等材料煮成臘八粥散發(fā)給窮人。

After eating legend could be the Buddha's blessing, so poor, it is called the "Buddha congee."

It is obvious that the monks cherish the virtues of food.

傳說吃了以后可以得到佛祖的保佑，所以窮人把它叫做“佛粥”。南宋陸游詩云：“今朝佛粥更相饋，反覺江村節(jié)物新。”據(jù)說杭 州名剎天寧寺內(nèi)有儲藏剩飯的“棧飯樓”平時寺僧每日把剩飯曬干， 積一年的余糧，到臘月初八煮成臘八粥分贈信徒，稱為“福壽粥”“福德粥”意思是說吃了以后可以增福增壽。可見當(dāng)時各寺僧愛惜糧食之美德。
