00:00Do you think Muslims are the only ones in the world who need Zaijie?
00:02In fact, many religions in the world have their own Zaijie traditions.
00:06Some even can't even use their phones during Zaijie.
00:09It's okay if you don't understand. It's no use if you understand.
00:11Just do it.
00:12In Judaism, the most sacred day of Zaijie is the Day of Atonement.
00:16The Jews will pray for 25 hours from the evening of the day before.
00:20During this time, they don't eat, drink, or drive.
00:22They can't even use their phones.
00:24They only do repentance and prayer.
00:25In Buddhism, there are also eight levels of Zaijie.
00:28Mainly through the Five Steps of Zaijie,
00:30the Five Precepts, and the other seven precepts.
00:32It helps Buddhists to purify their mind and body on specific days
00:35and experience monastic life.
00:36In Christianity, there is the Day of Atonement.
00:38Within 40 days before Easter,
00:40believers will do Zaijie and repent.
00:42Some churches don't allow meat.
00:44Some churches only allow one meal of meat a day.
00:47It symbolizes self-sacrifice.
00:49In fact, the meaning of Zaijie is not just fasting.
00:51It's more of a spiritual practice.
00:54Do you know any other religions that have Zaijie traditions?
