Choose the door to enter. Temple buildings usually have many doors, and it is actually very particular which door to enter from. Here, Chengdu Funeral Home Zhongde Funeral Home would like to remind you: only temples that have been consecrated are qualified to build thirteen doors, so everyone should be careful to distinguish them when they go to temples. Generally speaking, the three doors in the middle are used for people to enter and exit. The door in the middle is called the Empty Gate, which is the exclusive door for monks to enter and exit. Ordinary tourists can only enter through the door on the right. 2. Stepping in: When entering the door, male guests should step in with their left foot first, and female guests should step in with their right foot first. Remember not to step on the threshold. And the bigger the step, the better. 3. Burning incense: If you want to burn incense, you need to light the incense first. The stronger the incense, the better. The different numbers of incense sticks represent different quantities. Three incense sticks are for praying for oneself, six incense sticks are for praying for two generations, and nine incense sticks are for praying for three generations. And thirteen is an extreme. Thirteen incense sticks are the high incense that represents complete merit. When burning incense, you should hold the incense in your left hand and the candle in your right hand, because most people use their right hand to kill chickens and cut fish, and the right hand is full of filth, so incense should be held with the left hand. If you are left-handed, just do it the other way around, holding the incense in your right hand and the candle in your left hand. 4. Bowing Burning incense is bowing. The posture for bowing should be with the left hand on top and the right hand on the bottom, holding the incense and raising it high above the head. 5. Kowtow: After bowing, insert the incense into the incense ash and you can enter the door and kowtow. Chengdu Zhongde Funeral Home reminds that when kowtowing, one must identify the Buddha, Bodhisattva or Arhat, because some Bodhisattvas cannot be kowtowed to, such as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Of course, the abbot of the temple will usually inform pilgrims in advance, so there is no need to worry too much. 6. Kneeling: The kneeling posture should be to kneel on the cushion with both knees, put your hands together (the palms should be hollow when put together), and then raise them above the head. When your hands move down to your mouth and pause, you can make a wish; when they move down to your heart, you can recite something silently; finally, spread out your palms, palms facing up, and bow down. |
