China Naming Network - Baby naming - I have been to some temples and found that the stage in some temples is not facing the main hall, but deviated from the central axis. Excuse me, is this special?

Many temples will build a "stage" without a cover, which is called the "altar of dharma". This "altar" has two functions. First of all, Buddhism was taught here by the abbot or a passing mage. This demonstration is called "Naked Assembly". First of all, the temple began to establish ceremonies such as "land and water dharma meeting" for believers. Of course, believers will also organize a "temple fair" in conjunction with the New Year Festival and stage some dramas on the stage.

This kind of "altar" does not need to pay attention to orientation like the altar of Taoist temple, and generally only chooses the place facing the air in order to accommodate more people.
