During the festival, the Dipper lanterns must be kept constantly burning. They must never be allowed to go out. In the four days after the first incense is lit and the altar established, scriptures bespeaking compassion and salvation are continuously chanted from the main altar toward the four points of the compass, diffusing compassion to ghosts everywhere.
活動中，斗燈必須一直保持燃燒點明狀態，千萬不能熄滅。
