The correct way to worship ancestors and burn incense is exquisite.

1, the correct way to burn incense for ancestors: to worship the three main incense sticks in the incense burner. No broken incense, no unlighted incense. If there is an open flame after ignition, you can put it out by swinging it up and down instead of blowing it out with dirty gas.

2. After the three candles are lit, they come to the mat, raise the incense to the same height as their foreheads with both hands, bow down to the ceremony, then walk to the incense burner and put the incense on their left hand. The distance between incense and incense should not exceed one inch. The order of incense is first left and then right. After burning incense, you can go back to your knees and knock.

Step 3 pay attention to incense

Burning sandalwood is more particular. To burn sandalwood or Dalbergia odorifera and agarwood, there must be a special incense burner. Chop the incense into a minute thick and an inch long, and prepare some fragrant noodles. Put a little incense in the fragrant noodles, and the fragrant noodles will burn naturally under the cover of fragrant ash. At this time, when the main incense of the incense burner is respected, a ray of auspicious smoke will fly directly from the burner. In this way, only the abbot in the temple or the abbot in the Dojo can burn this incense very skillfully, and all believers burn incense instead of sandalwood. Or there are pilgrims burning sandalwood, just burning sandalwood in the furnace, so don't be so particular. One more thing to note: sandalwood is disrespectful to the stars in Luotian. Immortals such as Doum, Zhu Xing and the Big Dipper should burn incense. "The Art of Fighting" says: "The law of the female heaven forbids Tan Ran, and the offender Du Feng offends his ancestors. This matter is no small matter. Remember, burning yin is a disaster.
