Since Buddhists do not "worship" any type of being, the main purpose of Buddha bracelets and the like are varied. Some wear them to identify themselves as Buddhists, some to remind themselves throughout the day of their main goals, some just wear them because they think they are pretty. I personally wear my bracelets because they give me a sense of well-being, and remind me of the original teachings of the Buddha.

What is the purpose of the Buddha statue in Buddhist meditation?

Buddhist homes, centers, and temples often have statues and pictures of Buddhas and bodhisattvas. They are not holy objects to be venerated or worshipped. Instead, they are merely reminders to pay attention and keep the mind focused.A statue of Buddha is not necessarily a requirement of meditation, but its use does have history. Traditionally, when Buddhism was founded, many of its adherents were illiterate and thus depended on statues of Buddha in different poses in order to understand the various messages of the Buddha. A particular Buddha statue, such as the laughing Buddha or lotus Buddha, may be used to enhance meditation for a particular purpose. There are several types of statues with distinguished symbolism attached to each, but the most commonly used statue is the lotus Buddha, which enhances tranquility and relaxation.
