Are the seven colorful lotus lanterns provided in front of the Buddha in color order?
For Buddhism, lotus is a very noble and sacred thing. Lotus lantern, one of various Buddhist lanterns, is dedicated to Master Guanyin, which means that Buddha shines everywhere. Lotus lanterns illuminate people's hearts and shine all over the world.
Allusions about lotus lanterns: The classic Zheng Da Tibetan says that lotus has four virtues, one is fragrance, the other is cleanliness, the third is softness and the fourth is loveliness. So lotus bears the symbolic mission of Buddhism. "From Chapter 42" says: "I am a Samana, and I am in a troubled world. I want to be like a lotus without being polluted. " So the Brahma King who saved the world was born sitting on the golden lotus in Chiba. Buddha, such as Sakyamuni, Amitabha, Guanyin, etc., all sit on the lotus, or hold the lotus in their hands, indicating that the Buddha came from the world, pure and spotless.
Buddha said that as a method of cultivating the mind, offering can drive away the meanness of all beings and help him gain happiness, liberation and consciousness. When offering Buddha, if the donor has a pure heart, a happy heart and a soft heart, the blessing will be even more incredible.
People have respect for Buddha statues and confidence in Buddhism, but don't take pictures. Because the Buddha is the representative of the awakened one, and this thing of the awakened one does not appear on the surface, but happens in people's hearts.
With the help of statues, Buddhism is promoted and the Buddhism of all beings is standardized, so it is also called "image teaching". As the Great Baojijing says: "The Buddha conjures up various images and does good for the benefit of all beings."
There is even a saying in the Buddhist scriptures: "Even if someone looks at the Buddha statue with hatred, they can plant a blessing for themselves to welcome the thousand buddhas in the future."
In order to satisfy the faithful men and women to worship their patron saint of the Chinese Zodiac, eight bodhisattvas and buddhas are specially invited to worship in Yongning, the East Guanyin Ancestral Hall of Pilubao Temple. Good men and women can burn lamps around the Bodhisattva Buddha, and prayers can burn their own light. By burning lamps, sincere worshippers can feel happy, safe and auspicious!
