Dear Master Cecil Lee

Well, thanks regarding the kuan yin that should not have two at the altar table. So, what the number to place the deities at the altar table. We intend to remove/send one of the kuan yin to the temple. If possible the ganapati (elephant god) send to the indian temple or can it be send to any temple. Asganapati I prayed since I was very young (maybesix years old from my parent).Is there any procedures like choosing the date or time orone have to ask the temple caretaker to place the deity at the temple.

Thank you

With warmest regards

Dear Sophia,

So long as the altar table is of sufficient length (often proper altar tables fit the Feng Shui ruler measurement); there should not be an issue as to how many deities are placed on the table.

It also depends on the size of the deity and usually, as mentioned previously all of them should not be placed on the same height or level.

The rule of thumb is that one should place a reasonable number of deities one worships but bear in mind that there should if possible no two identical type of figurine such as two Guan Yin's etc... (Other than buddha figurines since there are lots of various buddha's so having a few buddha figurines is not an issue)

The most busiest time is the 1st and 15th lunar month at the Guan Yin temple; although these two dates are very auspicious, however, the temple can be very crowded especially on the 15th lunar month. This two days are good days. (But, try to be extra early on these two days).

This is really up to you whether you want to continue or not.
