    Of course. 1 Choose a Buddha statue: Generally, choose your favorite Buddha statue, which can be Amitabha, the Three Sages of the West, the Three Sages of the East, Jizo Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Maitreya Bodhisattva, Medicine Buddha, etc.

    It's good to like yourself, there is no unified rule for this, but it is not appropriate to furnish too much, generally we are at home, and three Buddha statues can be offered at home.

    2 Buddha statue material: It can be a paper statue, or a ceramic, or copper, gold, silver, any material can be, this is not particular, according to their own economic ability. The ceramic Guanyin Bodhisattva I offered was bought at the flower market during the Spring Festival, and it has been offered for nearly 20 years, which is quite effective.

    3 Location of Buddha statues: If the conditions are good and the home is spacious, you can choose a small room, which is dedicated to the Buddha hall, which is equipped with Buddha statues and worship mats to facilitate practice. If there is no extra room, you can put it in the living room or in the respectful position of the garden at home, some people are working and renting, there is no living room or special room for the Buddha statue, you can also put it in the bedroom respectful position, and you can use a red cloth to cover the Buddha statue when it is inconvenient.

    4 Offerings in front of the Buddha: These are based on one's own conditions, and it is not necessary to make offerings. If conditions permit, flowers, fruits, vegetarian snacks can be offered, and some treasures can also be offered if the conditions are quite good.

    We make offerings to the Buddha to show respect for the Buddha on the one hand, and on the other hand, we offer treasures to the Buddha to show that we are willing to give up our wealth in order to cut off our selfishness.

    5 Water supply: Offering a glass of water to the Buddha every day is something that everyone can do. It is best to boil the water, the next day this glass of water can be drunk. The water supply also reminds us to be pure in heart and to treat all living beings equally.

    6. Incense: Because the family space is relatively closed, environmental pollution should be considered when incense, so the material and quantity of incense should be considered when incense. We generally recommend that you put on a stick of incense in the morning and evening.

    When applying incense, you should also pay attention to fire safety. Shangxiang has five meanings, which are expressed: abstinence incense, fixed incense, wisdom incense, liberation incense and liberation knowledge incense.

    8 Uses: We can usually chant Buddha, chant sutras, worship Buddha, meditate, etc. in front of the Buddha statue, according to my experience, it is easier to practice in front of the Buddha statue.

    There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south!

    On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Buddha was offered to the Buddha and withdrawn. Except for fruits, flowers, incense and candles, all the food eaten was removed before noon. The Buddha does not eat at noon, and if it is a Buddha thing, it is okay. For example, when building a Lengyan altar, the Buddha can make exceptions.
