What are the Buddhist rituals?

Buddhist etiquette is dignity, which refers to correct manners, good manners, respect when seen, and respect when feared. In Buddhism, all daily life has its own corresponding practice, ideas and prayers, such as singing' When you wake up, you should pray for all beings, all senses and ten directions', and then get up peacefully; When gargling, recite' rinse your mouth with water, and when you wish all beings, clean your mouth and recite Buddha'; When going to the toilet, sing' I wish all beings when urinating, abandon greed and ignorance, and get rid of sin'. These are the dignity of monks.

Besides, there are trivial rules about the details of life. Taking the monk's lying method as an example, we must pay attention to the following five items: (1) Becoming a Buddha first; (2) Don't look at the Buddha while lying down; (3) Don't stretch your feet; (4) Don't lean against the wall or lie flat; (5) Don't put your knees up and down, but make a pillow hand to pick up your knees.

Monks hold many commandments, which are different from those at home. Therefore, there are' 30000 dignity and 80000 statutes' and' monks have 30000 dignity and 60000 fine lines; Nepal has 80,000 decrees and120,000 thin lines. In addition, Volume 5 of the "Bodhisattva's Commandments" says that the body has four dignity, moire (Dazheng 30.986a):' One walks, two lives, three sits and four lies. When a bodhisattva walks and sits, she will always adjust her bad karma day and night, endure walking and sitting, not lying or living. Living inside and outside is like a bed, such as the ground, such as grass, such as leaves, so I often think about supporting the treasure of Buddhism, worshipping scriptures, being forbidden, speaking extensively without supreme law, thinking like law, and living like law. "

It is generally believed that abstinence and dignity are light. However, if interpreted broadly, most commandments have the meaning of dignity. For example, of the 250 precepts, only four are precepts, and the rest are precepts of dignity.
