I usually go to incense to pray for some fortune, and then for marriage. The most important thing is to pray for good health for myself, my parents and my family, and that everything will go smoothly. There are no too many requirements. But adding incense is not casual and requires some precautions.

1. Before burning incense, you must be vegetarian and avoid oil and meat.

When burning incense, you must understand one principle. We are not burning incense to show others, nor are we being vegetarian to show others, but making less food. The karma of killing and not eating the flesh of living beings can increase our compassion, eliminate stains and become pure. Naturally, we will be blessed with blessings and wisdom, and all our wishes will come true.

2. When burning incense, use your left hand, do not blow the incense with your mouth

When burning incense, do not use your killing hand to light incense. You should hold the incense in your left hand and the candle in your right hand, because ordinary people use The right hand kills the chicken and cuts the fish. If you are left-handed, it is the opposite. After the incense is lit, do not blow it out with your mouth. Lift it upwards and it will go out naturally. Of course, you can also fan it out with your hands. When making a bow, the left hand is at the top and the right hand is at the bottom to hold the incense, which needs to be raised above the head.

3. After offering incense, kowtow, place your palms across your forehead and touch the ground.

In folk customs, after bowing, you can put the incense in the incense burner and then enter the hall to kowtow. However, when you kowtow, you need to look for the Buddha statue instead of slamming it on the ground.

In addition, the posture of kneeling is also very particular. You should kneel on the futon, put your hands together, with the palms of your hands hollow, raise it high above your head, slowly lower it to your mouth and pause, then you can make a wish. . Then go down to the heart and spread your hands, palms upward, knock the top of your head on the ground, and put the two palms over your forehead to show that your head touches the Buddha's feet, respectfully and sincerely. But what I want to say is that as long as you are sincere, it will be effective, and there is no need to pay too much attention to those small details.
