Where should I put the Guanyin Bodhisattva at home? When offering Buddha and setting up a Buddhist altar at home, it is generally a folk belief or custom to ask someone to open the icon of Buddha and Bodhisattva first, and at the same time choose a good date and place. From the perspective of doing as the Romans do, this is understandable; Opening the light indicates prudence, choosing the date and place, and praying for good luck. But from the perspective of Buddhism, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are everywhere, and there are ten Buddhas and ten treasures to protect dragon day in all directions. Of course, there are no imaginary problems in folk beliefs, as long as you think it is the most honorable position and settle down for the Buddha statue at the most appropriate time with the most sincere mood. It depends on everyone's situation. If the residence is very small, or if you live in a public dormitory, it is definitely inconvenient to share one room and one house with your colleagues and classmates. Then, only when you recite the scriptures regularly in class, you can temporarily show the Buddhist scriptures as Buddha statues and put them in a considerable position. There is no need to set incense burners and candlesticks, and there is no need to provide water, flowers and incense. Just ask questions and worship before and after class to show piety and respect. If both roommates and roommates believe in Buddhism, of course, you can set up a Buddhist altar or hall with the same name; If you are the only one who studies Buddhism devoutly, you should not arouse public anger by forcibly entering the Buddhist altar because of your special performance. If only one person in the whole family studies Buddhism, they should also live in public dormitories, otherwise it will cause family quarrels. Don't make your family feel disgusted and resentful about Buddhism because of learning Buddhism. If the whole family believes in Buddhism, learns Buddhism, or you are a parent, or a couple are classmates, and there is still a room or room at home, it is best to set up a Buddhist altar or hall. If you set up a Buddhist altar, you should choose a suitable position in the living room, that is, the direction in which the owner sits. Don't face the window behind the Buddha statue, but face the doors and windows so that people can see it at a glance when they enter the door. The Buddhist altar is the center of the family and should have the function of stability and security. As for the location determined by geographers, it can be used as a reference, but there is no need to stick to superstition. As long as you don't point the Buddha at the toilet, the stove or directly at your bed. When setting up a Buddhist temple, you should choose a quiet room, not a place where children, cats and dogs play; Nor is it a place for people to gather, laugh and have a feast. It is only used for chanting and meditation, and it is not used for other purposes. Gods such as Gong, Mazu, land and ancestors, as well as the main cards of gods, were originally provided at home, so they should not be abolished immediately because they believed in Buddhism and studied Buddhism, but should be gradually carried out. First, put the icons of Buddha and Bodhisattva in the right place and the ancestral cards of other gods on both sides, so there is no need to put incense tables and candlesticks. Because all good gods and ancestors will protect and be close to the Three Treasures, they can also become disciples of the Three Treasures after offering sacrifices to Buddha and Bodhisattva icons and gain the benefits of Buddhism. The next time you move the Buddhist altar and the Buddhist temple, you can keep the original statues as antiques. As for the ancestral cards, they can be moved to the ancestral hall of the temple and do not need to be enshrined at home. If you still want to worship, you can put it under the Buddha statue or move it to another place and worship it alone in an ancestral altar smaller than the Buddha altar. For example, if the temple is big, there will be another hall for the dead, specially for the dead card; If the temple is small, longevity cards and past life cards will be provided on both sides of the main hall Buddha altar. This can not only show filial piety to ancestors, but also show lofty belief in buddhas and bodhisattvas, which is different from filial piety. Families don't need too much, too complicated and too messy to worship Buddha and Bodhisattva icons. One Buddha can represent ten thousand buddhas, and one bodhisattva can represent all buddhas and bodhisattvas. Most families worship Guanyin Bodhisattva, Sakyamuni Buddha, Amitabha Buddha and Pharmacist Buddha. You can choose one of them. If there are already icons of Buddha and Bodhisattva, put the Buddha statue in the middle or above the back, and the Bodhisattva in the front or below. We must make the Buddha stand out to show its dignity. The size of the icon should be commensurate with the spatial position of the Buddhist altar and the Buddhist temple, neither too big nor too small. If the icon is small and made of seven treasures, you can carve multiple niches to set off the greatness of the Buddha statue. After purchasing the Buddha and Bodhisattva icons, most people advocate holding the opening ceremony. From the Buddhist point of view, the opening ceremony is not necessarily necessary. Because the Buddha-Bodhisattva statue is only a tool for practice, the feelings of Buddha and Bodhisattva are everywhere, and the icon is the object of worship. Without idols, there is no object to worship, support and respect. Through this kind of practice, you can get the benefits of practice and get the induction of Buddha and Bodhisattva. But the most important thing is the feeling of confidence, piety and respect, not the icon itself. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether the icon is open or not. When Buddha Sakyamuni was alive, disciples of the world missed him for three months and made statues for him. There is no record of opening a light. ......& gt& gt
