Is Shanyuantang a real Buddha?

Living Buddha, there is no such thing as living Buddha in Buddhism!

The Buddha statue is made of wood and stone, but the human heart is not made of wood and stone. Think of it as wood, it is wood; As a Buddha statue, it represents supreme compassion and wisdom. Building temples, carving Buddha statues and offering sacrifices to treasures are all efforts made by the great protectors and lay people of all ages to express their inner beliefs. The same is true of the best things used to build churches abroad. In a solemn environment, people's inner piety is easily triggered.

We should treat the Buddha as a Buddha, respect it, and get rid of all kinds of disrespect, including: commenting on the "ugliness" of the Buddha, treating the Buddha as an ornament, putting it in an unclean place, buying and selling, and so on. We should also respect the law, because the law is the car that helps us get rid of life and death.

Buddhism seeks respect and benefits from respect. There is no such thing as a "living Buddha" in Buddhism, and Buddha statues are not amulets, traffic signs or mascots. Only by respecting the three treasures, breaking evil and cultivating good can we avoid evil. True practitioners don't covet external wealth, but some people who don't understand Buddhism borrow money from Buddhism and don't know that the real treasure is in their hearts.

Practice is to cultivate the inner world, not the outer world, and the Buddha statue is also to inspire our inner world. For example, a photo is just a piece of paper, but if you have your own relatives in the photo, you will feel kind and warm when you see it. Neither men nor women should wear Buddha statues as decorations or amulets. The role of the Buddha statue is to let us feel respect, respect, belief and learning with the help of this "image". Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are our teachers and role models, and acting according to the law is the real conversion.

Buddha statues should be worshipped reverently, and you can't wear them on your body at will. The key is: what is "enough piety"? If you can't do it in behavior, it's just an excuse for yourself. If you remember the three treasures, be cautious about cause and effect, be afraid, and walk on thin ice, then you will really get the blessing of Buddha and Bodhisattva.
