Buddhist people and prayer

	Buddhists may ring a bell at the start of prayer in time with chants and mantras (like songs)
	Buddhists put gifts in the shrine. This may be water, rice, flowers, fruit, and money. They may burn incense too.
	Some Buddhists use a prayer wheel. It has writing inside. Buddhists turn the wheel. They believe this 'lets out' the writing in to the world.
