2. If there is an ancestor ranking on the altar, it is best to put the tablet a little below the Buddha statue. Please cut a piece of red paper (red to ward off evil spirits) (7 inches in diameter) and put it under the Buddha's seat to show good luck, whether it is on the altar or on the desk or bookcase after you go home. If it is a painting, you should cut a piece of red paper the size of Zhang Yiyuan and stick it on the lotus seat or seat of Buddha to show that you choose the first day, the fifteenth day and Shi Mao.
3. If there is more than one Buddha statue at home, the Tathagata will always sit in the highest position, the Bodhisattva such as Guanyin will sit in the higher seat next to it, and Lohan will sit in the lower position of the Bodhisattva. Therefore, when placing Buddha and Bodhisattva statues, you can do this: the Buddha statue is in the middle, and the Bodhisattva statues can be placed on the left and right sides; If there is only one Buddha statue, the Buddha statue is the largest on the right and the smallest on the left.
4. If there are both Buddhist and Taoist sculptures at home, for example, when placing Guanyin Bodhisattva and Lotus Master, put Guanyin Bodhisattva on the right and Lotus Master on the left. If there is a protector such as the god of wealth, it will be even lower. Buddhist scriptures and pagodas can be placed around the Buddha statue, and the offerings will be lower. The gods of wealth worshipped in Buddhism are basically bodhisattvas; If it is a folk god of wealth, don't put it with Buddha and bodhisattva, because he is a fairy, not a bodhisattva, not an arhat.
