Answer:

Buddha is a mind, a facility of perception, developed with effort and method. Buddha is not an entity. So, to “worship” a Buddha is to misunderstand the entirety of Buddhist practice.

Buddhism is not a practice of “worship”. It is rather a practice of development and determination to attain a particular perspective or state of mind, named Buddha. Shakyamuni (of the Shakya clan - great saint) was the first man to attain this state fully and then teach students how to develop perception in order to achieve the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps you. Have a nice day ahead^_^
