How does a Buddha worship?

Answer 1

In Nichiren Buddhism we pray twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, by chanting daimoku and reciting gongyo. We also do this in groups as well as individually, it is called tozo. We also have discussion meeting and study meeting where we are learning about the writings of Nichiren Daishonin, the gosho. The living Buddhism, a monthly publication, has the material to be covered and we read this before going to discussion meeting and study meeting so we are able to participate. This is important as you want to know about what you are practicing so you can do it correctly.

Answer 2

Buddhist prayer is completely different than prayer in the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam).

In the Abrahamic religions a person prays to god or some saint for insight, or forgiveness or for some action to be taken on their behalf. That is, they are praying for some supernatural being to intercede for them.

In Buddhism a prayer is more like a mantra in which the person praying is reciting a lesson (sutra) or guideline which tells them how to behave and act. For example, a prayer for compassion is "may all beings be well, happy and peaceful". The idea behind this prayer is for the person praying to develop compassion and loving kindness to all. Therefore prayer in Buddhism is self-directed.

So as to where we perform these acts, its everywhere and anywhere when we feel the need.

Answer 3

We do not worship any god or person. So the word worship doesn't apply to Buddhists. We practice putting into every waking moment the Buddhas teachings. So we call what we do practice.
