Do monks or laymen have to cross their hands before they pass the Buddha-Bodhisattva statue in the temple?

"Fold", also called "fold". Its shape is two hands on the chest and ten fingers together. Put your hands together as a gift to show your respect.

For Buddhists, folding is the most familiar greeting. The act of folding can not only capture people's hearts, but also give people a modest impression, which is one of the most commonly used rituals in Buddhist daily life.

Even when we feel nervous, anxious or impetuous, folding together can make us calm, stable and focused. This action of putting your hands together on your chest seems simple, but it is very effective for calming your mood.

In addition to greeting people with folded hands, if you pass by the mage or the Buddha in the main hall, you can also bend over with folded hands to show courtesy and respect. In addition, when we write a letter, it is also a good way to express humility and respect by using "XXX" as the signature at the end of the letter. Also, when listening to the elders, we can also show our respect by putting our hands together. If you talk for a long time. You can put your hand in front of your abdomen. Switching to the hand-holding (letting go) posture will also attract attention and will not be sloppy.

Buddhists can express their feelings by asking questions or worshipping Buddha in the Hall of the Great Hero. On weekdays, Buddhists can bow down when they see the virtue of Master or elders on formal occasions. However, if Master is walking, eating, talking or giving a speech, he can ask questions instead, and he can also express his piety.

Although folding or asking questions is a life etiquette used by Buddhists in vain, the ultimate goal is to make the mind calm and stable, and achieve the effect of inward acceptance through body movements. Let the state of physical and mental comfort and tranquility be integrated with the pace of the temple.
