What Buddha statue is enshrined in the Great Buddha Hall?

Our teacher Sakyamuni's Buddha statue is enshrined in the Hall of the Great Hero.

In Buddhist monasteries, the Hall of Ursa Major is the main hall, and some of them are also called the Hall of Ursa Major. Daxiong Hall is the core building of the whole temple, and it is also the place where monks practice in the morning and evening.

Daxiong is the name of Buddha: the big one means everything; Hero means catching the devil. Because Sakyamuni Buddha is full of wisdom and can make the world a hero, his disciples all respect him as a hero. The treasure in the hall refers to the three treasures of Buddhism and Taoism. In addition to siddhattha gotama, some monasteries will also worship the Buddha statue of III in the Ursa Major Hall.

Generally speaking, there are two combined forms of Buddha statues: in terms of time, it is the Kaya Buddha in the past, the Sakyamuni Buddha now and the last Maitreya Buddha, commonly known as "Vertical III Buddha" or "III Buddha". Their arrangement in Buddhist temples is: Sakyamuni Buddha is in the center, Gaya Buddha (or Burning Buddha) is on the right of Sakyamuni Buddha, and Maitreya Buddha is on the left of Sakyamuni Buddha.

In terms of space, it is the Amitabha Buddha in the western paradise, the Sakyamuni Buddha in the mother world and the pharmacist Buddha in the clear glass world in the east, commonly known as the "Heng III Buddha". Their arrangement in the Buddhist temple is: Sakyamuni Buddha is in the center, Amitabha Buddha is on the right of Sakyamuni Buddha, and Pharmacist Buddha is on the left of Sakyamuni Buddha.
