Notes on praying:
1. Dress modestly, never expose or dress strangely, nor wear slippers or hats to enter the temple. These are the basic respect for the gods.
2. Avoid loud noise. Although each temple worships different gods, they all hope to purify people's hearts. Therefore, their speech and behavior must be gentle.
3. Prepare 3-5 kinds of fruits, biscuits and other supplies of the season, but they must be odd (because the odd number is the positive number); in addition, prepare incense, gold paper, etc. according to the regulations of each temple. Fruits suitable for worship: apples, peaches, plums, dates, grapefruits, grapefruits, oranges, etc. Fruits that cannot be worshipped: tomatoes, guava, Sakya, durian.
4. To burn incense means to offer three treasures with reverence and reverence, so as to demonstrate and guide all living beings. It means to convey information to the void Dharma circle and to appreciate the blessings of the three treasures of ten directions. It means that it ignites the Buddhist's true incense of precepts, which contains the meaning of vowing 'to practice precepts, calms and wisdom, and to put out greed, hatred and ignorance'. The Buddha does not like the world's great incense, but likes the Buddha's true incense of precepts and calms. Therefore, it is very important to worship Buddha with good incense, which reflects the sincerity of praying people. If possible, you can go to the shapeless copper stove and ask for several boxes of praying incense to assist blessing. It is a natural plant fragrance, and the chemical fragrance outside not only pollutes the environment with burning smoke, but also disrespects the gods.
Special attention:
1. After attending the funeral or farewell ceremony, you can take a walk in the temple on the same day to get rid of your filth.
2. People with third-class relatives who have passed away must not visit the temple until 49 days later, otherwise Dai Xiao is likely to be taboo when entering the temple.
3. The mother must finish the month before she can go to worship.
4. It's better not to sacrifice during menstruation.
Notes on the wish fulfillment:
1. Entering the temple: after entering the temple gate, it is not suitable to walk directly in the center. You should walk along the left arm of the individual when entering or leaving the temple. It's better to bring your hat and walking stick or leave them in other rooms. Don't put it on the Buddha case.
2. Location: the worship mat in the center of the main hall is used by the temple master. It is not allowed to worship last week. It is advisable to divide men, left women and right women on both sides of the mat stool to worship. If someone worships, it is not allowed to walk in front of him.
3. Reading scriptures: if there are scriptures that are read publicly in the temple, it is advisable to read them by sitting upright. First, clean your hands, put them on the table and look at them flat. Do not hold a roll or put it on your knees. Clothes, hats and other things, especially not on the Sutra.
4. Meet the monk: meet and call him the master, or the great monk. If they bow to him at the time of writing, they do not have to continue to bow. No one can worship him when he is worshiping Buddha, sitting meditation, chanting sutras, eating, sleeping, walking and going to the toilet.
5. Magic weapon: do not knock the bells and drums in the temple, and do not move the cassock, sea green and other things.
6. Listen to scriptures: take a seat with all worshipers. If you arrive later, the mage has risen to the seat. You must finish the ceremony to Buddha top, step backward, and then salute the mage. After sitting, do not say hello to acquaintances, do not sit up indefinitely, cough and talk. If you can't hear it out, you can join hands with the mage and withdraw in silence. You can't ask others to withdraw.
