The statue of Buddha and Bodhisattva is actually a manifestation of Buddha and Bodhisattva's efforts to enhance the confidence of Buddhists and believers. These are just forms, not important. What matters is the heart! Respect and sincerity are the most important things. The so-called "sincerity is the spirit" means this.

We ordinary people have no confidence in ourselves, so we need external things (such as statues, beads and pendants) to improve; If you really have a Buddha in your heart, it doesn't matter whether you have respect or not, because opening your eyes and closing your eyes are all Buddhas inside and outside your heart.
