我们知道，铜钟都是用来敲响的，佛教中，敲钟也是非常有讲究的。在佛教中，晨昏敲钟要连击一百零八下，其规则跟九相关，因为在古代，“九”代表的是极高、吉祥的意思，一百零八为九的十二倍，即代表“九”的极致，一百零八下还取至一年十二个月的意思，象征着一年的轮回，天长地久，佛教还认为，人是有一百零八种烦恼的，敲一百零八下就是解除忧愁的意思。
As we know, bronze bells are used to ring. In Buddhism, ringing bells is also very exquisite. In Buddhism, the clock strikes at dawn and dusk one hundred and eight times in succession, and its rules are related to nine. In ancient times, "Nine" stands for a very high and auspicious meaning, 108 is 12 times of nine, that is to say, it stands for the extreme of "Nine". Under 108, one year and 12 months of thought is taken, which symbolizes one year's samsara and eternity. Buddhism also believes that people have 108 kinds of troubles If you are upset, knock 108 times to relieve your sorrow.
在佛教中，铜钟还具有祈祷、感化、超度众生的作用。钟声可以给人带来无穷的遐想和美的享受，还有平稳庄重，端庄安祥之意。
In Buddhism, the bronze bell also has the function of praying, influencing and transcending all living beings. Bell can bring endless reverie and beautiful enjoyment, as well as stable and solemn, dignified and peaceful meaning.
