In Taoism, three sticks of incense represent Sanqing, heaven, earth and people, which can be described as respecting Sanqing, heaven and earth and sages. Because Taoism believes in animism, it respects everything in the universe with humility and joy. We all know that incense is a way of communication between man and god, but what if it goes out halfway?

It may be a common experience for many people to find that the incense is out or not lit in the middle of worship. In this case, people generally feel flustered. In fact, we might as well think about it from another angle. If you think of incense as a phone, it's not good if you don't light it. Just light it again. However, before re-lighting, we should pay attention to one thing. There are two situations. One is that the burnt incense is still in your hand, and the other is that when you insert the incense burner, you find that the incense is burnt out.

If you find it before inserting incense, just go back to the point of inserting incense. If it is found after being inserted into the incense burner, pull up the incense burner, apologize to the gods, and then melt the incense burner and the gold paper together in the gold burner. Because there is a saying that incense is not inserted for the second time, incense that has been inserted in the incense burner cannot be inserted for the second time.

Some people will think that it is an ominous sign that the incense is out or not lit. In fact, there is no need to panic, because the fragrance is good or bad. In the process of preservation, it may be difficult to light incense because of humidity, or it will go out after lighting. This is a low probability, but it will happen. Just look at it with a normal heart.
