What are the taboos for worshipping Buddha in Putuo Mountain?

There are three taboos in Putuo Mountain: please incense, make a wish and make a wish.

1, please ask for incense: you can ask for it when shopping in other places, and you can ask for it when buying incense in temples. Please make incense with your left hand. Buddhism thinks your left hand is the cleanest. Then, respectfully put your right hand in the incense burner. Be sure to light the incense, but don't go to the place where the incense is inserted and don't try to light it with your own lighter.

2. Make a wish: Usually, you should remember to tell the Buddha your name, where you live, what you want, and where to make a wish after you finish.

3, also willing: as long as the heart is sincere. However, if you burn incense and make a wish every time you go to the temple, once it works, you forget to make a wish, which is not a good thing. I suggest you burn incense and worship Buddha everywhere to show your respect. But if you like, choose one or two buddhas.

Etiquette for entering the main hall:

1, enter from the left and right sides of the edge, and don't walk in the middle to show respect. If you walk on the left side of the door, enter with your left foot first, and enter with your right foot on the right side first.

2. Except Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues and offerings, others are not allowed to be brought in.

3. Only when chanting, worshiping Buddha, cleaning and oiling incense can you enter. You can't use the Buddhist temple as a passage and wander around at will.

4. Clean your body and mind and wash your hands before entering the temple. When entering the temple, don't look around. After the worship, you can look at the holy face and meditate on the clouds: if you can see the Buddha, you should let all beings see the Buddhas without hindrance.

In the Buddhist temple, you can only turn right, not left, to show the right way. When people practice Buddhism, they should pay attention to this corner, so they don't have to stop and ask questions, just go to Qi Mei.

6. Don't say worldly words in the temple, and don't talk loudly. Don't sit in the temple except by listening to the classics. Don't laugh loudly even when discussing Buddhism.

7. In the Buddhist temple, do not stand with your feet, against the wall, against the table, on your cheeks, on your hips, or stand against the wall with a stick or spit filth. Don't lie on your back while sitting. When standing, you should put your hands together or stand up straight to show respect.
