In fact, the relationship between Mother Buma and Goku was that of friends and allies, not that of a mother and child. In the story, Mother Booma and Goku attend a banquet together to celebrate their reunion and friendship with other party members.

How to invite the gods?There were different pithy formulas and methods for different purposes of inviting gods. For example, on the fifth day of the first lunar month, one could use an incantation similar to "the disciple (believer)'s name, date of birth, home address, burn incense today and prepare offerings (if there is gold paper or gold paper) to worship the God of Wealth. Pray that the God of Wealth can help the disciple (believer) bring positive wealth luck (partial wealth luck), so that the disciple can have better luck." In Yangjiang area, there was a mantra such as "Incense and candles are equally famous. Sincere prayers are offered. There are many cigarettes that shake the world. As soon as the cigarettes arrive, the gods will come. When the cigarettes are heavy, the gods will come." When the ancestors were invited, the corresponding ritual content would be matched. The contents of the Yin Yang Feng Shui Master's Secret Manual included summoning the gods, summoning the Nine Heavenly Maidens, summoning the saints, summoning the gods, using chicken blood, White Crane Immortal Master, Yang Gongzhen's pithy formula, etc. However, the specific operation methods were not mentioned in detail. However, these prayers and methods were mostly folk customs and some specific cultural traditions. Their supernatural effects had not been confirmed by science.

How to invite ancestors?In the traditional China culture of worshipping ancestors, different regions and families may have different ways of "inviting ancestors", but the following are some common practices and related considerations:
** 1. Setting up the environment **
1. ** About memorial tablets **
- If the family has an ancestral hall and worships the ancestral tablets, the tablets should face the door. This was because the door was the air vent of the house. The memorial tablet facing the door allowed the ancestors to accept the yang qi and auspicious qi of the outside world, expressing respect and welcome to the ancestors, and symbolizing the blessing of the ancestors to enter the family smoothly.
- When there were many immortal tablets and ancestral tablets in the same room, the immortal tablets should be placed above the ancestral tablets to show respect to the gods. The ancestral tablets were arranged according to seniority, with the older ones in the high position and the younger ones in the low position, reflecting the order of seniority in the family.
2. ** Overall environment **
- Take the Jia family's ancestral worship in Dream of the Red Chamber as an example. Before the ancestral worship, a new job had to be done. For example, before the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the two mansions would change the door god, the couplet, the plaque, and the new oil peach talisman to decorate the environment. Among them, the signboard might be a notice board that indicated specific matters during the Spring Festival. At the same time, the doors of the Ningguo Mansion from the main gate to the main hall had to be opened all the way. The steps on both sides had to be lit with vermilion light to welcome the ancestors and gods in a solemn and grand state.
** 2. Offering preparation **
- The offerings usually included incense sticks, paper money, flowers, wine, tea, cakes, etc. The fruits were mainly fresh fruits of the season, such as apples, bananas, oranges, etc. The smoke from the incense sticks symbolized communication with the spirits of the ancestors. The paper money was money for the deceased, the flowers represented respect for the ancestors, the wine and tea were offerings, and the pastries and fruits were delicacies provided to the ancestors. The quality and quantity of the offerings should be emphasized. They should be placed neatly and beautifully, and the quantity should be abundant. Different regions might have special offerings.
** 3. The attitude of the ritual participants **
- In the process of offering, the participants had to have a pious attitude. Not only did they have to be respectful on the outside, but they also had to be respectful and focused. Their hearts had to be filled with reverence and gratitude. He had to abandon distracting thoughts and devote himself to the memory and respect of his ancestors. He had to pray for the rest of his ancestors and protect the prosperity of his family. He should also avoid inappropriate behavior such as whispering when worshipping his ancestors.
It should be noted that this was a common practice from the perspective of traditional culture and customs. The folk customs of different places were quite different, and the specific way of "inviting ancestors" might vary according to local traditions and family inheritance.
