What are the requirements for praying?

1. Burning Incense
1. Burn three incense sticks (not the more the better. "Incense offerings are divided into: burning incense, applying incense, and powdered incense. Burning incense is to offer in front of the Buddha, to purify impurities, remove odors, refresh the air, make the air fragrant, and make the body and mind happy."), which means to offer to the Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, and to diligently cultivate precepts, concentration and wisdom to eliminate greed, anger and ignorance. The amount of incense is not important, but the purification of the air and the sincerity of the heart. Try to refuse inferior incense, big incense and high-quality incense that pollute the air.
2. Please buy your own incense, and do not ask others to pay for it. (You can bring it from home, buy it from outside, or get it directly from the side of the main hall - there are usually incense boxes on both sides of the main hall. If conditions permit, you can put some money in the merit box, but if conditions do not permit, you do not have to put any money in it.) Please do not blow it with your mouth when lighting it. Do not use the oil lamp in front of the Buddha to light incense. The candles in front of the Buddha can be used to light incense.
3. When offering incense, first offer incense and then worship (please do not bring incense into the main hall, just light it and put it in the incense burner, do not hold incense to worship all directions, and do not hold incense to make wishes), light the incense, and then lightly hold three green incense sticks in your hand (male left hand on top, right hand on the bottom, female vice versa), imagine respectfully offering to all the Buddhas of the ten directions and three times, raise the incense to the height of your forehead, then walk clockwise to insert the incense into the burner. You can use your left hand to insert the incense into the incense burner (because the right hand represents killing, while the left hand represents peace).
4. Make a wish and worship: Kneel on the prayer mat, stand upright, put your hands together, make a wish, and then worship the Buddha three times.
2. Pray for blessings and make wishes
1. When you pray for blessings and make a wish, you must uphold a pure heart. Buddha is not a corrupt official. I will give you a stick of incense, and Buddha will bless you to make a fortune. 2. When you pray for blessings, you must realize Buddha's compassion for all living beings. When you pray for blessings, you must think of the grace of your parents (raising), the grace of all living beings, the grace of the country (the grace of the enterprise), and the grace of the Three Treasures (Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha). When a pure thought is in harmony with Buddha, all merits and blessings will come naturally.
2. When making a vow, one should abandon the selfish thoughts of harming others for one's own benefit, and make a great vow to benefit all living beings and society, which will bring immeasurable merits. At the same time, one must be careful and considerate, and after making a vow, one must act according to the vow. One must not deceive oneself or others.
3. When praying and making a wish, you can imagine that there are countless of you in the ten directions (eight directions and above and below) holding incense and worshipping the Buddhas, corresponding with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and praying and making a wish at the same time;
4. You can pray for health and safety for yourself, your family, and your colleagues;

"Destiny governs one's entire life, while luck governs one's moment." "Destiny" governs one's entire life, while "luck" governs different periods of one's life. If you want to know your own destiny, use the Eight Characters to calculate it!
