    Buddha statues, if the Buddha portrait cannot be enshrined, can it be put away.

    Buddhism is very liberal. If there is no condition to continue the offering, it can be put away or the Buddha statue can be sent away. If you want to put it away temporarily, you can roll it up and put it in a clean high place.

    There can be no debris on it. If you don't want to offer anymore. You can roll it up and send it to your local temple.

    As long as you don't destroy or throw away the Buddha statues.

    It is for the Buddha, not copper, iron, wood, ceramics, and mud.

    When placing the Buddha statue, it is necessary to pay attention to the following points:

    First, it is placed in a neat place, and the surroundings and opposite sides of the Buddha statue are relatively neat and clean.

    Second, it is better to place the table of the Buddha statue a little higher, and the face of the Buddha statue is flush or slightly higher than the level of sight when people stand.

    The third is to place the Buddha statue on the same table, except for scriptures, incense burners, lamps, candles, chanting machines or other offerings, do not put other irrelevant items.

    Many homes ask three bronze Buddha statues to be placed side by side in a shrine.

    Your two Buddha statues, if they are both Buddha statues, or if they are both Bodhisattva statues, place them side by side. If it is a Buddha statue and a Bodhisattva statue, the Buddha statue is placed in the center, and the Bodhisattva statue is placed in front of the side of the Buddha statue.

    When it comes to offering, of course, it is offered together. Always remember that it is the Buddha who is offered, not copper, iron, wood and stone. The statue of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, just like the text, helps the worshippers to remember the Buddha and the Bodhisattva.

    The merit of worshipping the Buddha and offering to the Buddha is related to faith, and those who sincerely take refuge in the Buddha, believe in the Dharma with all their hearts, and vow to receive the Dharma, the merit of worshipping the Buddha and offering to the Buddha is great.

    You can sit on the west facing east, or you can sit on the north facing south. If it is a single statue, it should be placed in the middle seat; If it is a three-dimensional statue (the Three Saints of Huayan or the Three Saints of the West), they should be placed in the order we see on the portraits; If there are four, for example: Shakyamuni Buddha and Guanyin Bodhisattva, Jizo King Bodhisattva, Maitreya Bodhisattva, then it is generally divided into two rows, the back row ** place the Buddha statue of Shakyamuni, the upper hand Guanyin statue, the lower hand put the Jizo King Bodhisattva statue, the front row in the middle of the Maitreya Buddha statue (on the left).

    First of all, I would like to ask which two Buddha statues they are.

    Secondly, the placement of the Buddha statue is not so complicated, and the placement of the Buddha statue is mainly out of respect and piety.

    If they are all Buddha statues, they can be placed side by side, and the middle can be placed in a suitable position. If one is a Buddha statue and the other is a Bodhisattva statue, place the Buddha statue in the center, and the Bodhisattva statue can be side by side (secondary position).

    The direction of the Buddha statue is not restricted by the south, east and west, mainly not facing the toilet, kitchen and other unclean places. If possible, do not put it in the bedroom, try to put it in a separate room, if not, put it in a clean and high position in the hall. It can be understood as putting a famous painting in a better position.

    If the hall is not convenient, it is okay to put it in the bedroom, but when you sleep, cover the Buddha statue.

    They are all Buddha statues, from left to right. If there is a statue of a Bodhisattva, then the Buddha first and then the Bodhisattva.

    In short, the treatment of Buddha statues is mainly respectful. Dharma is the Dharma of the mind.

    Buddhism is the most casual and fast, in the Buddhist scriptures do not say how to place the Buddha statue, how you want to place it, self-nature is the Buddha, the Buddha statue only plays a prompting role, reminding people to be compassionate and happy at all times.

    You didn't specify which two Buddha statues, others are not good to help you.

    It depends on what kind of Buddha these two are, but if you are particular, don't put them indiscriminately.

    OK. In addition, hanging statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, burning incense and worshiping, this is only one aspect of our learning Buddhism and believing in Buddhism, and what we need to pay more attention to is to implement the teachings of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to us: do not do all evil, and practice all good.

    If you can correct your mistakes, do good deeds, and be a good student of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will be very happy when they know about it, and you will have good fortune as a result!

    In the accumulation of virtue, it is easy for us to ignore the filial piety to our parents, and our parents are our greatest blessing. Filial piety to our parents can accumulate good fortune for us, while unfilial piety will undermine our good luck. Confucius said that the most difficult thing to be filial to one's parents is "erotic difficulty", that is, it is difficult to be kind to one's parents, so we must treat our parents with tenderness, speak softly, and do not speak fiercely.

    Finally, I suggest that you ask for an introductory book on Buddhism to get a comprehensive and concrete understanding of the Dharma. Buddhism explains the origin of our world, the tasks and meanings of life, and how we can achieve happiness from suffering, which is worth learning. Buddhism's way of happiness from pain, I suggest you understand more, we believe in Buddhism, learn Buddhism, not just burn incense, kowtow, please a Bodhisattva statue is over.

    There is still a lot of content that we should learn and practice. The book on learning Buddhism is recommended to be "Understanding Buddhism" written by Master Jingkong, which can be invited in the temple. If it is inconvenient to go to the temple, there are also invitations on the Internet when dangdang.
