There are usually several kinds of fruit offerings.

In Chinese folk tradition, odd numbers represent pros and cons, which can highlight solemnity and sincerity, while the size and diameter of fruits are generally around 8- 10 cm. Usually you can find a suitable fruit bowl and put 3 or 5 fruits on it.

The time requirement for submission is in the morning, which is the most sincere. If you don't have time, you can decide according to your own time. Sincerity is the most important. When offering sacrifices, three incense sticks should be prepared, and the offerings should be changed every three days or so, and kept fresh, usually mainly fruits and snacks.

Principles of fruit supply

After the fruit is bought, feed it to the Buddha first, then eat it. Everyone eats fruit every day. After the fruit is bought back, it should be fed to the Buddha before eating, and it can be collected after one worship. You don't have to wait until evening like ordinary people. If there are people who fast twice, they can hold on before they want to eat.

Fruits and other offerings offered to the Buddha at home are completely edible. Generally speaking, eating the offerings offered to Buddha, especially children, patients, pregnant women, etc., will get good luck and the protection of Buddha and Bodhisattva. Don't throw away the removed fruit, don't eat it yourself, you can give it to others, and it is also meaningful to pay. It is a kind of respect for the Buddha, and it must be sincere, persistent for a long time, and accumulate virtue.
