Speaking of jade Buddha, I believe that most people will think of the smiling Maitreya Buddha. But in fact, in addition to this cheerful Maitreya Buddha, there are several others. Today I will introduce to you in detail the shapes of jade Buddha and Buddha. Most of the Buddhist ornaments that people buy are Maitreya Buddha. When people think of Maitreya Buddha, they think of his seemingly worry-free smile and his big belly. People often use Maitreya Buddha's big belly to describe people's big tolerance. The vast majority of Maitreya Buddhas are seated, with a kind and amiable image that suggests a constant smile and an open mind. There is not much difference in appearance between the standing Buddha and the sitting Buddha, but the standing Buddha appears more lively than the sitting Buddha. Classification and meaning of jadeite Buddha Maitreya Buddha: Maitreya Buddha is one of the eight great bodhisattvas of Mahayana Buddhism. He has a big belly and nothing worries him. His image always reminds people to learn to be tolerant, compassionate and optimistic. The Maitreya Buddha-shaped Buddha can be said to be the most popular jade Buddha. People wear Maitreya Buddha in the hope that they can be like Maitreya Buddha, less troubled by trivial matters in life, and face life optimistically and positively. Wearers: Jade Buddha statues in the shape of Maitreya Buddha are suitable for a wide range of people, regardless of age or gender. Although there is a saying that "men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha", jade Buddha statues are suitable for both men and women. Sakyamuni Buddha: Sakyamuni Buddha is the highest god in the Western Paradise, symbolizing supreme compassion and wisdom. People wear jade Buddha statues in the shape of Sakyamuni Buddha because they hope to receive Buddha's blessing for peace, and they also hope to comprehend Buddha's compassion and wisdom. Wearable Target Group: Jade Buddha statue in the shape of Sakyamuni Buddha is more suitable for adults, both men and women. Jigong Buddha: I believe everyone is familiar with Jigong Buddha. "My shoes are torn, my hat is torn, and my cassock is torn" is a song praising Jigong. Jigong Buddha combines Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism into one. He is a living Buddha in the hearts of the people. He holds a broken fan, wears tattered clothes, and walks around the world to help others. People wear jade Buddha statues in the shape of Jigong Buddha in the hope of learning his free and easy style. Wearing crowd: The jade Buddha in the shape of Jigong Buddha is more suitable for middle-aged and older men, but not suitable for women and children. Happy Buddha: The prototype of Happy Buddha is based on the monk Qibi, who loves freedom and enjoys being free by nature, so he was given the title of "Happy Buddha". The Happy Buddha is very similar to the Maitreya Buddha, but unlike the seated statue of Maitreya Buddha, the Happy Buddha is usually depicted standing. People wear the Happy Buddha statue mostly because they hope to have fewer setbacks in their lives and more freedom and ease. Wearable audience: Jade Buddha statue in the shape of Happy Buddha should be avoided by children. Baby Buddha: As the name suggests, Baby Buddha is a jade Buddha carved into the image of a child, which is very innocent and cute. Regarding the origin of the baby Buddha, it is said that it is the image of Sakyamuni Buddha as a child, cute and childish, yet retains the solemnity and peace of the Buddha. Baby Buddha is not only a kind of Zen mind, but also a kind of Zen meaning of facing the complex world with a simple mentality. Wearing groups: Children and women are the best candidates to wear the baby Buddha shaped jade Buddha. Jade Buddha or jade Buddha made of other jade materials are favorite objects of Buddhist believers. Wearing jade Buddha has certain benefits, but also has taboos and particularities. Buddha is an important part of Buddhist culture. It originated in ancient India and has been passed down to China for a certain history. It is the continuation and penetration of Chinese traditional thoughts and the crystallization of oriental traditional culture. Its status in China and the world is equivalent to that of Guanyin. Moreover, the status of Buddha in world Buddhism is unparalleled and is the essence of Buddhism. Also, because Buddha is the embodiment of all-knowledge, all-compassion and all-powerfulness, he is omnipotent and has boundless magical powers. He is the "idol" of the whole nation and is deeply respected and worshipped by the general public. Therefore, Buddha is sacred and inviolable and cannot be desecrated. Wearing jade Buddha has many benefits, but also many requirements and taboos. 1. Benefits of wearing a jade Buddha 1. The jade Buddha in jade Buddha pendants or carvings mainly refers to the big-bellied Maitreya Buddha, who is one of the eight great Bodhisattvas in Mahayana Buddhism and one of the three Buddhas of the future in Buddhism. He is known as the future "world ruler". Maitreya Buddha has obvious and thick earlobes, a big belly, bare chest and breasts, and a constant smile on his face. Because Maitreya Buddha shows people an image of a kind and smiling face and a big belly, his cheerful attitude brings people infinite life enlightenment and teaches people to be compassionate, forbearing, tolerant and optimistic. In addition, Jade Buddha also refers to Tathagata Buddha, Budai Monk, etc. Tathagata Buddha is Sakyamuni Buddha, the founder of Buddhism. He went through the "Eight Phases of Enlightenment" and gained great enlightenment. He understood everything in the world and was wise and intelligent. He was the "present Buddha" and was in charge of everything in the present. He became the highest Buddha in the eyes of people in the world and was deeply worshipped. Budai Monk got his name because he often carried a large cloth bag and wandered around. He often pretended to be crazy, spoke incoherently, was happy and free, and became a template for a modern free and happy lifestyle. 2. The traditional custom is "men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha", and it is believed that it is especially good for women to wear Buddha. "Buddha" is homophonic to "Fu", and women can be blessed by wearing it. In addition, the Jade Buddha is a male image, often with kind eyes and a big heart. As the old saying goes, "A big heart can accommodate things that are difficult to accommodate in the world; a smile can laugh at the ridiculous people in the world." The Jade Buddha forms a yin-yang complement with women, thereby helping women to cultivate an open mind and a generous and open-minded attitude towards everything, so that women can maintain safety, increase wealth, and promote family fortune. fcgc66 fcpf18 |
