The female devotees to worship Buddha in the period menstruation does not dare to Buddha temple, not even dare front of the altar to burn incense to Buddhist chanting, meditation, Buddha.
Actually it's taboo of low spirits. For fear of blood spirits dirty dirty blood is so easy that everyone gets angry. Food addiction demons blood, blood that is triggered greed, but menstrual blood is fresh blood should not react spirits as it was humiliating joke.
Consequently, menstruating women in the temples and shrines , shrines spirits can suffer negative consequences.
And as novice nuns, monks, nuns, and the Upasika (lay women) were living near the temple, with the women religious befriend daily scriptures, Buddha statues and other artifacts of the temple measures, over the years have never seen one disaster by conflict problems caused by menstruation at all.
Those who worship Buddha at home when set Buddhist altar must first cleared through the ceremony of Buddha and Bodhisattvas, to choose the good days, good direction. It is also due to popular beliefs or folk customs.
opinion "option to enter in" to say that that tradition is nothing much wrong. How to optical ceremony expressed caution, the days on which way to pray is to pay good attention.
