    In Buddhism, there is no practice of offering food and not food outside the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the monasteries are offering every day. In Buddhism, the first bite of water is offered to the Buddha every day.

    What does it mean not to make offerings to the Buddha? Just say, "Chu."

    1. 15, get some fruit for the Buddha, get some food to offer, and you're done", these are not real offerings. The real offering should be when you get up, the first cup of water must be offered to the Buddha, and the first bite of food must be offered to the Buddha, and then you can do it. Some say it's too much trouble.

    It's a little troublesome, but it's not a trouble to form a habit, do you know how many disasters you can eliminate with this offering?

    Every water is a cause, and water can carry both boats and overturn boats, so water has a dual nature, sometimes it is also the one that gains and the one that suffers. If we offer the first cup of water to the Buddha, and then you go and use the water, people will not be turned by the water, and they will not be harmed by the water. If you treat water as a substance and don't really make offerings to the Buddha, even though you drink and use it, it's no different from usual, but you can't overcome the harm of water.

    So some people think it's a kind of attachment on this issue, they think it's a Buddha who wants to drink water, but in fact, your so-called offering is to make offerings to yourself, which is to let you get real auspiciousness and peace.

    Therefore, the question of making offerings to the Buddha is not a trivial matter whether or not to make offerings. If we want to get the Dharma, you make offerings sincerely. It's not that you need to buy anything else, "I brought all the good things in the market, how much did I spend", no.

    Usually everything you use is offered to the Buddha first, so that you will be far away from many disasters. Because of the time, I can't go too deep here. But this is very important.

    You can't return to the Buddha with all your heart. The supreme mind, that is, this mind has no one else but the Buddha, and even takes refuge in the Buddha with his life, so that he can get the benefits of the Buddha. Sometimes we are so scattered that we make offerings to the Buddha, but we don't respect the Buddha, we don't make offerings to the Buddha, we don't have the heart to return to the Buddha, that is, we don't really take refuge.

    And then you still want to live according to the Buddha, do you want to be able to "live"? You have to do the first things to live.

    There is no such thing as a statement, it is all possible, it is voluntary, it has not been said, it has not been said, it has not been said that it must be something that cannot be done.

    This can also be recited after burning incense or tobacco in the Buddhist hall.

    It can be used in the almsgiving of any food, this food color and fragrance, on the Buddha of the Ten Directions, in the sages and sages, and on the six products.

    There is no difference between giving and giving, and all wishes are full, so that those who give today will get immeasurable paramita.

    Three virtues and six flavors, offering to the Buddha and monks, the Dharma realm has affection, universal offerings, and then chanting the Guanyin mantra, the number is not limited.
