Neat clothes
First, you should keep your clothes clean and tidy before burning incense. Burning incense and worshipping Buddha is a very pious thing, and it is also the minimum respect for Buddha. Therefore, when you burn incense and worship Buddha, you must dress neatly and not be disheveled, which will not only leave a good impression on others, but also show great disrespect to Buddha. If you know that you are going to burn incense and worship Buddha the next day, you should clean yourself up and dress up neatly the night before. Don't wear gorgeous clothes, just keep it clean and tidy and don't wear exaggerated clothes. If you are disheveled, it is likely to lead to bad consequences.
Burn incense before eating.
The second thing to note is to burn incense before eating. Be sure to burn incense before eating. It is very impolite to wait until you are full to give incense to the Buddha. Because the Buddha doesn't want to eat other people's leftovers. So don't eat before incense, smoke for a while to incense the Buddha, and then you can eat. The incense just served is still burning. This is not only a good atmosphere, but also a respect for Buddha. Only in this way can we achieve the expected goal.
Clean the altar before incense.
Finally, pay attention to the hygiene of the altar before incense. In fact, there are not many days to burn incense in a year, so many family shrines are actually covered with dust. Before you incense the Buddha at home, what you need to know is that you'd better clean up the altar before you incense. Even if people eat, they will wipe the table first, and the gods and buddhas naturally don't want to eat in dusty places. Therefore, cleaning the altar first is more beneficial to the Buddha and himself. Only by understanding this knowledge can we maintain good feng shui.
