1, worship Buddha in the temple
It is the only way for many people to go to the temple to worship Buddha and pray for blessings on holidays. They sincerely prayed to Buddha and Bodhisattva for family harmony, career success and disaster relief. The wisps of smoke carry the wishes of countless people.
Buddhism actually expresses its respect and gratitude to Buddhism, Buddhism and monks by worshipping Buddha. At the same time, by worshipping Buddha, you can naturally have a sense of stability and humility, and you can also repent of the bad karma you have created over the years.
Worship Buddha is the highest salute to touch Buddha's feet with both hands crossed, bow down and kneel on the ground with elbows and knees. So it's also called a tribute. When you worship Buddha, you can completely let go of your "arrogance" worries and selfish self-obsession, thus conforming to Buddhism and Taoism.
2. The method of worshipping Buddha
2. 1. Stand up straight, cross your hands, spread your feet, separate your heels by about two inches and your toes by about eight inches. Look at your fingertips and recite the Buddha's name in your mouth or heart.
2.2. Slowly bend down and squat, and stretch your right arm forward. Slowly put your right hand in the center of the mat, and keep your left palm still.
2.3. Slowly lower your body, kneel on the worship mat, put down your left hand, and press it on the left side of the center of the worship mat, more than half a palm of your right hand.
2.4. Move the right palm forward half a palm from the center of the pad to the right with the left palm. The distance between two palms is about six inches. Kneel your legs on the mat, at the same time, forehead, nose, etc. I completely touched the worship mat.
2.5, the second master's virtual fist, palm up, palm open, palm up, back flat on the ground, like a lotus receiving Buddha's feet.
2.6. Before getting up, flip your fists with your hands, put your right palm down on the worship mat, put your left palm on your chest, and stand up at the same time.
2.7. Keep the palm of your left hand upright on your chest, press the worship mat with your right hand, and leave your legs at the same time, and get up slowly.
2.8. Stay away from the mat and stand up and repeat the action just now. Generally speaking, you can do it three times.
3. Preventive measures
Worship Buddha is not an outward pursuit, but a kind of self-development, so I bow down and return to my place. Our Buddha nature is full of light, wisdom and blessing, but it is blinded by dark clouds such as greed, anger, ignorance, slowness and doubt. Only by developing the virtue of humility can we get rid of the dark clouds. Now our Buddha nature is bright and auspicious everywhere.
When you worship Buddha, you should worship slowly and stand slowly. Every movement is very clear and natural, slow, relaxed and gentle. You should observe every movement with your heart, and your gestures are full of piety. If there is only action, no intention and no sense of shame, it will be difficult for us to improve.
If it is inconvenient to come to the temple to worship Buddha, you can also repent and be grateful in front of the Buddha statue or in an open and bright place at home, or relax yourself through worship. Especially when you feel restless, you can't settle down and do things. You might as well calm your anxiety by worshipping Buddha.
