But as long as your heart is sincere, it is good to burn incense at any time. What should you pay attention to when burning incense in a temple?1. When entering a temple, men should step with their left foot first, while women should do the opposite. When entering a temple, take big steps and don't stand on the threshold.2. Everyone makes a wish to Buddha when burning incense. If you really want your wish to come true, in addition to being sincere, you can also make a promise to the Buddha about what will happen if your wish is fulfilled. 3. You can ask for three incense sticks, six incense sticks, nine incense sticks, or thirteen incense sticks. The meaning is different. Some people think that the more expensive the incense, the better. This is wrong. The most important thing when worshiping Buddha is with sincerity. 4. Before burning incense, you must wash your hands first, and then light it with the fire you brought. The stronger the fire, the better. You must use your left hand to insert the incense. Buddhists believe that the right hand kills, which is unlucky. The meaning of burning incenseFirst, it expresses sincere and respectful offerings to the Three Jewels, thereby demonstrating and guiding sentient beings.Second, it means transmitting information to the void Dharma Realm and gaining blessings from the Three Jewels in all directions. Third, it means burning oneself to spread fragrance to all directions, reminding Buddhist disciples to make selfless contributions. Fourth, it means that the true incense of Buddhist precepts and concentration has been lit, which contains the silent vow to "diligently cultivate precepts, concentration, and wisdom, and extinguish greed, anger, and ignorance." The Buddha does not like the big and expensive incense in the world, but he likes the true incense of Buddhist disciples' precepts and concentration. |
