What are the fruits suitable for sacrifice?
apple
Every year during the Spring Festival, some families offer fruits. People often use apples as fruit. Apples are beautiful in appearance and full of fruit, which can be preserved for a long time and do not need to be replaced as frequently as the provided fruit.
tangerine
The fruit of orange is oval, with shiny skin and beautiful shape. It is a common fruit when serving. Serving with orange as fruit represents awe, and serving with orange also represents reunion. Moreover, oranges are stored for a long time and do not need to be replaced frequently.
lychee
Litchi can be used in summer, but the shelf life of litchi is short and needs to be replaced frequently. Litchi peel is red, which is better in summer and is also very ornamental. But when serving, you must choose full and healthy litchi, and you can't use rotten litchi as fruit.
Put a few when offering fruit.
Single sample and odd number are better. For example, 1 watermelon or other big melons, 3 pitaya-sized watermelons, 5 apples and 9 plums are provided at home for easy placement. If you go to a temple, you'd better know how many Buddha statues there are, and the number of each Buddha statue should be the same. If you don't know, you can buy as much as you want, and put it in the main hall (Hall of Great Heroes) together.
