Is it not possible to photograph all Buddha statues, or is it only the Buddha statues enshrined in t

Why are pictures of Buddha statues not allowed in temples? It turns out that it is really not superstition.

It is forbidden to photograph Buddha statues, which are important cultural relics, because flash exposure will accelerate the aging of cultural relics. If it is not within this limit, there is no such provision, it is possible to take pictures, or a large number of Buddha statues**, where do they come from?

Taking pictures is very disrespectful to the Buddha and Bodhisattva, unless you are enshrined, such as printing out the ** and framing the offering, or other necessary to promote Buddhism, in other cases, you really can't take pictures, there are many people who set the Buddha statue as a mobile phone wallpaper, playing with their mobile phones in the toilet, isn't this blasphemy to the Buddha and Bodhisattva? There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south!

The temple does not allow photography for several reasons, and travelers should respect the temple management regulations.

1. Many monasteries are cultural relics protection units, and like the Forbidden City, photography is not allowed.

2.The monastery is worried that some people will take pictures of Buddha statues casually, without respect, and they will deface and blaspheme casually after taking pictures, which is sinful.

I've heard people from temples say that the Buddha's light shines. Understood this way. You take pictures with your mobile phone, whether you take pictures or not, you can't take pictures with flash. Because the light of the Buddha shines, you can't shine on the Buddha.

Also, if you take pictures, they will leave a dark shadow, so temples are generally not allowed to take pictures.

A lot of the rules are set by people!

Only the Buddha statues enshrined in the temple cannot be photographed.

Being able to shoot is being able to spread more widely.

All Buddha statues cannot be photographed.

1.Whether it is a temple or not, the Buddha statue is a Buddha statue, it is our Dharma body parents, not to take pictures is worried that everyone is not as good as the Dharma to blaspheme the Buddha and Bodhisattva, such as not being able to take a half-body, such as taking a photo** need to be offered, put it in the mobile phone with a hand poke is not respectful, etc., in order to avoid these problems, so do not allow to take pictures, mainly so as not to damage everyone's little good fortune;

2.Buddha statues are also Buddhas, and there are places where Buddhas are brought up with respect for the mind, and mindfulness. Once you pick up your phone or camera to take pictures, your mind will be scattered, which is not conducive to your cultivation, so it is not recommended to take pictures.

In the eyes of Buddhists, the Buddha statue can only be enshrined, and there can be no other objects above the Buddha statue. Therefore, if the Buddha statue is taken together with other photos, it is very disrespectful to the Buddha statue.

At the same time, the Buddha statue is not allowed to be photographed with other people, because if you offer the photograph, people are not allowed to be enshrined with the Buddha, let alone if the person is still alive.

Another point is that because the flash of the camera will cause damage to the painting of some ancient Buddha statues, this is very detrimental to the protection of cultural relics.

In order to avoid a lot of unnecessary disrespect, the Buddha statue should not be photographed.

The flash of light will accelerate the aging rate of the Buddha statue; The refusal to take pictures is done from a protective point of view. The Buddha statue in the temple has been opened. People who don't believe in Buddhism don't understand the issue of enlightenment, but the fact doesn't exist because they don't understand it.

The Buddha statue with the light turned on is equivalent to the Buddha statue has "spirituality", and the flash of photography will make the Buddha statue feel uneasy and frightened, and so on. Actually, this is a misconception, that the Buddha-nature has already reached the supreme state of selflessness, and that the Dharmakaya is all over the cosmic sands and will not be affected by taking pictures. The main thing is to consider from the point of respect, how you store these aspects after washing out the ** is very complicated.

However, if it is really necessary to take a picture of the Buddha statue, you can pray to the Buddha statue with the consent of the administrator, hoping that he will allow you to take pictures and forgive your sins; Then it's time to go.

Buddha art: The emergence of Buddha art was A.D.

The events of the first and second centuries. It was a mixture of Indian culture and Western culture influenced by ancient Greek culture.

More than 2,500 years ago, when Shakyamuni was alive, he was against the idolatry of Brahmanism in Indian society. In the 600 years since the birth of Buddhism, Buddhists have always followed the teachings of Shakyamuni during his lifetime and refrained from idolatry. In Indian history, there were no sculptures or paintings of the Buddha until the first century AD.

In the Mahabodhi Temple of Buddha Gaya, which was built during the Ashoka era (272-232 BC), there are many sculptures and Buddha seats, but there are no Buddha statues visible on the Buddha seats.

From here, it can be seen that the Buddhist believers at that time still followed the teachings of Shakyamuni and did not practice idolatry. Of course, it is also possible that they think that the sacred image of the Buddha is difficult to depict and that making a Buddha image is a sin of blasphemy.
