Temple prayer is a traditional way to pray for guidance and help from the gods, which is common in temples in China and Japan. The applicant will go to the temple or the altar in the temple, present some incense sticks and some coins to the gods, and then draw a sign from a pile of signs with some words or predictions written on it. These words or predictions are usually about good or bad luck, health, wealth and other aspects in the future, and will give some suggestions and guidance. Applicants need to interpret the signs and find their own solutions. The purpose of seeking visas in temples is to get guidance and protection from the gods with the help of their strength, to help them get out of the predicament and better cope with various challenges in life. In addition, seeking a visa in a temple is also a manifestation of faith and culture. For some people, temple prayer is a traditional religious ceremony and an expression of faith and respect for God. At the same time, the signing of the temple fair is also a kind of cultural inheritance and experience. By attending this ceremony, people can have a deeper understanding and feel the local religious and cultural traditions.
Whether out of faith or cultural experience, seeking a visa in a temple is a positive behavior, which can help people relieve psychological pressure, enhance their inner beliefs and courage, and better face the changes and challenges in life.
