Buddhist Rituals
Buddhist Rituals consist of formalized actions, practices, and ceremonies performed by followers of the Buddhist faith. These rituals often involve chanting of sacred texts, making offerings to the Buddha and other deities, meditation, prostrations, and circumambulation around sacred objects or sites. They serve as a means of expressing devotion, seeking blessings, cultivating mindfulness, and purifying negative karma. Buddhist Rituals vary widely across different traditions and sects of Buddhism, and can be performed individually or collectively in temples, monasteries, or in the home.
