What do Buddhist people put on their altar to pray?

A Buddhist alter is constructed usually with incense and candles to focus on during meditation, prayer beads to practice mantras, and depictions of Buddha, Tara and other figures in the Buddhist pantheon. It is also customary to have flowers, a place for offerings, and perhaps a singing bowl present as one prays for the welfare of all sentient beings. Adherents typically sit on a meditation mat in lotus position while praying (with or without pillows). With that said, there is no outright need for an alter to practice Buddhist teachings, just a focused mind.
