Pictures of revered teachers, places, rupas, temples, bhikkhus, shrine rooms etc. that bring inspiration to our members. Pilgrimage advice etc.

I have a question that is rather simple (I hope).
First, What are the nessisary components of a home shrine? (statue, flowers, incense, etc...)
Second, what is the standard procedure for preforming Puja? What order are things offered in, what is chanted, and when?
Thanks in advance!
The non-doing of any evil,
The performance of what's skillful,
The cleansing of one's own mind:
This is the Buddhas' teaching.

There are many threads in the shrine room section which maybe of use for you particularly this

This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!
