  1. Chapter I - VII: The brim of the hat is printed with the words "Good Luck Coming".

  2. Chapter II - VIII: The left curtain is engraved with three big characters "極樂法", which signifies the "Blissful Pure Land" or "Blissful World" in Buddhism. The Blissful Pure Land is named for its unique quality, where all living creatures enjoy all kinds of happiness without suffering. In Buddhism, Jilefa is regarded as an ideal state of life and a goal of practice. Through faith and practice, believers hope to reach the pure land of Amitabha Buddha and experience the supreme happiness without suffering.  (Text quoted from Baidu) ​​
