I have two small gold-plated lions at home. It is said that lions protect the law. Can I put them together with the God of Wealth? Or will it lead to bad things? Urgent question thank you
In Taoism and folk customs, lions are often used as feng shui objects, but they are mainly used to control houses and transform evil spirits. The lion's head cannot be pointed inside the house, but must be pointed outside the door or window. As for whether Feng Shui objects can be worshiped together with gods and Buddhas, specific issues need to be analyzed in detail. For example, Feng Shui objects such as the dragon turtle and Guanyin Bodhisattva can be worshiped together (the dragon turtle is placed at Guanyin's feet or Guanyin stands on the dragon turtle's back). The two together form the Feng Shui bureau of the "White God of Wealth", bringing good fortune and good fortune.
The poster said that lions are Dharma protectors, which is correct. It is more accurate to say that lions are just Buddhist Dharma protectors. So if the God of Wealth in your family is the God of Wealth and Wealth (whether it is the Three Stars of Fortune, Luxury and Shou or the Lord of Wealth and Silk), because the God of Wealth and Wealth is a Taoist deity, it is not suitable to be placed with a lion. If the God of Wealth in your family is Zhao Gongming, the God of Wealth, because Zhao Gongming is a Taoist god and his mount is a black tiger, it is not suitable to be enshrined with a lion. If the God of Wealth in your family is the God of Wealth, Guan Gong, because Guan Gong is not only a Taoist god but also a Buddhist Jialan Bodhisattva, so he can be worshiped together with the lion. If the God of Wealth in your home is the King of Wealth, the Five Gods of Wealth of Yellow, White, Black, Red, Green and the Elephant-headed God of Wealth from Tantric Buddhism, they can be worshiped together with the lion.
