Why do you worship Buddha?

The purpose of worshipping Buddha is threefold:

First, the heart of Buddha's fruit merit;

Second, treat your own greed;

Third, you can cultivate your own blessings.

As the saying goes, "it is difficult to live in the world of Buddha", added Dade, the founder, "I fell when the Buddha was alive, and I was born after the Buddha died. I confess that I have many karma, and I can't see the golden body of the Tathagata. " These Buddhist words and ancestral teachings all reflect the difficulty of living in the Buddhist world. So we have no chance to support a Buddha in the world of Bodhisattva. But as long as we live in the Elysium, we can not only support Amitabha, but also make countless appearances, go to all Buddhist places and support all Buddhas under the blessing of Amitabha's great wish.

Specific steps when worshipping Buddha and wishing

Burn incense (in front of an idol or spirit tablet)

First, raise the incense to the height of the eyebrows with both hands, hold the tail end of the incense with two thumbs, aim the tail end of the incense at your eyebrows, and aim the top end of the incense at the Buddha statue.

Second, keep this posture and meditate in your mind: for example, Guanyin Bodhisattva in the south has no great compassion, and you pay attention to Buddha and Bodhisattva.

3. Finally, insert the incense into the incense burner, return to the Buddha, kneel on the worship mats (futons) on both sides of the Buddha, cross your hands, say what you want to say to the Buddha, then worship three times, get up and ask questions, and then leave.

make obeisance to Buddha

First, put your hands (fingers together) and palms (obliquely upward) on your chest and stand in front of the futon.

Second, the left palm is pressed on the left side in front of the futon, and the right palm is pressed down in the center of the futon. The left palm remains motionless and knees are crossed on the futon.

Third, press your head on the futon between your palms, and turn your palms outward (palms up, which means holding the Buddha's feet with your hands, head to face).

Fourth, the two fingers are reversed, still pressing on the original place of the futon, and the head is separated from the futon by falling.

How to make a wish in a temple 3 points for attention in making a wish in a temple

First of all, dress appropriately

Taoist temple is a sacred and solemn meditation place. Remember to dress appropriately when you burn incense and pray. Simple and simple colors are the best, so that you can be tidy. The "neatness" here is not how luxurious you want to wear, but clean and tidy, clothes are not grandiose, unconventional and dignified. I need to take a bath the night before I plan to burn incense in the temple to wash away my filth.

Second, don't step on the threshold.

Threshold is of great significance in ancient architecture. At first, the threshold was to prevent the airflow from coming in, and later it became a symbol of the owner's identity and dignity. "Book of Rites" wrote: "Scholar-officials go in and out of Junmen and don't practice the threshold." It means that ministers should not step on the threshold when entering the temple, which is disrespectful to the monarch.

The threshold of Taoist temple contains some mysteries of metaphysics. Taoism believes that the threshold of Taoist temple can stop the pollution of the outside world. Once it crosses the threshold, it can put aside worldly troubles and accept the blessings of the gods with a pure heart.

Third, worship the gods.

The offerings of Taoist temples are mainly incense, flowers, lamps, water and fruits. Conditional goodwill will also bring tea, food, jewelry, clothes and so on. , or the same, or three or five. Singular means the sun is rising, and even means yes. Of course, considering the different customs and habits, it is better to consult the Taoist priest of the Taoist temple you are going to for the details of the offering.

Fourth, burning incense requires reason.

The significance of burning incense is to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, and it is also an important way to accumulate virtue and improve relations. Taoist incense is generally three sticks, representing the three treasures of Taoism, classics and teachers, as well as heaven, earth and people. Never blow with your mouth when you light incense. If the fire doesn't go out, you can shake it out by hand.

In recent years, there are also many believers who are superstitious about putting incense on their heads. It is really unwise and disrespectful to make the whole incense burner stagger in order to grab the incense.

The so-called "incense on the head" is the first incense on the first day of every year, and it is also the first incense on the head when the temple door opens every morning (five o'clock in the morning), not the first incense in every temple. It is not the god we worship who wants to see it because of the incense and the head incense. I hope devout believers can correct their disrespect.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) fasting

This article is the most confusing thing for many people. Do I need to fast when I go to the temple to burn incense and pray?

In fact, as a believer at home, it is best to fast or be vegetarian conditionally, but when it is impossible because of human relations, you can simply rinse your mouth with clean water before entering the temple, and remind yourself to bathe when fasting.

Six, kowtow and worship

In the Taoist temple, we kowtow and worship, and what is more exquisite is three kneels and nine knocks, which is our most sincere and sincere worship. Stand in front of the mat, pay tribute to the jade statue of Jin Rong, then make fists, kowtow and pray silently. If you are not familiar with this etiquette, you can ask a Taoist priest or a volunteer layman for advice and ask them to teach on the spot. It works best.

Seven, don't make a wish at will.

When we burn incense and pray for blessings, we all make wishes with pious hearts, hoping that we can have good luck in the new year, grow old together with our loved ones, and achieve excellent results in future exams ... These wishes are also people's yearning and pursuit for future life. But some wishes can't be made casually, which will not only have no effect, but also hurt good news, such as the desire to hurt others, the desire to make a deal with the gods, the desire to get something for nothing, and so on.
