Answer 1

You can use anything for your alter but you can purchase them too. Mine has a statue of Buddha, A plant/flower sits behind Him, Incense is in front of him in the middle, a very tiny bowl of water to his left (my right), and a very tiny bowl (actually these are like little handleless chinese tea cups that i had in a tea set, lol, but they look good) to his right that holds food offerings, i always just put some wildrice and a few pieces of candied ginger in mine. I only burn meditation incense because using regular ones are much too strong to enjoy while sitting in front of them trying to meditate. You can be creative and put together one on your own or here is a link to someone who makes them: http://www.catizone.com/all_products.php. Oh, also I have a teeny photo of the Dalai Lama on my alter.
