Heres a tip, when burning japanese incense for religious purposes, never blow on them, instead put them out by shaking. Its considered disrespectful to use your breath to put out incense in japan.

I bought mine at a funeral parlor's when I was living in Japan, but maybe you can find some similar ones by searching for "incense burner tripod" at amazon.co.jp or maybe you can try Googling the keywords "butsudan goods buy"? The incense burner has a 10,5 cm diameter. The wooden one is really easy to find anywhere. You can find it on Amazon or ebay with the keywords "wooden indian incense burner" or "wooden incense coffin". It's really easy to find, so they may even carry it at your local Asian decoration/trinkets shop, or at witchcraft / wicca shops!

I got a sample pack of incense sticks in the mail along time ago. But have been nervous about lighting them. This video has helped give me some tips thank you. Also one of the sticks is called Pirates Rum and I have been unable to find it anywhere online. If anyone knows where I can buy it. Let me know. Thank you.

Thanks for the video, I'd like to ask you something! I recently tried out some Stamford sticks, but I was kind of disappointed... They smelled nice before I lit them, but when I started burning them they began smelling more like the regular smoke you'd get from a fire. It was pretty nasty to breathe. I've tried two scents so far, Cinnamon and Vanilla, both gave similar results. Is Stamford not a good brand? Could the sticks be too old? Did I do something wrong...? Really sad, because I heard so many amazing things about them, so I bought the big packs. Would love to hear from you.

Thanks for the comment Altarior! I've never tried Stamford, but in Indian-style incense, I try to stick to sandalwood or Nag Champa, because imo almost every other scent smells like the regular smoke you describe. I don't think the sticks being old has anything to do with it, because I've used many incense sticks that had been lying around for 7 or 8 years. For Indian Indian incense sticks, I would recommend Satya Sai Baba's Nag Champa or HEM's sandalwood and for Japanese incense, you really can't go wrong (as I describe in the video), but Morning Star (by Nippon Kodo) is an easy one to find in various countries. It's a shame you're stuck with big packs if you don't like them of course...

If you want the exact same one, it'll be a bit expensive to buy online I'm afraid. If you search using the search term 線香差し on this same website, there's some cheaper ones too↓ www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/Buddhist-altar-buddhist-incense-holder/dp/B008L0UIRG/ref=sr_1_7?crid=29PI7L2BGLJIY&keywords=%E7%B7%9A%E9%A6%99+%E4%BB%8F%E5%85%B7&qid=1671856783&s=home&sprefix=%E7%B7%9A%E9%A6%99+%E4%BB%8F%E5%85%B7%2Ckitchen%2C224&sr=1-7

How come every time I burn my incense I don't smell the scent that I can smell on the stick but I only smell smoke (kind of like cigarette smoke)
@TIMOTHEVS
7 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your question Lydia! It definitively should not smell like cigarette smoke, so you’re most likely burning low-quality incense. Have you tried different kinds? Like I said in the video, Japanese incense is the safest choice, especially if you are sensitive to smoke. “Morning Star 毎日香” is probably the most famous brand of Japanese incense! I hope you find a brand you like!

Hi Mamta Shahi! Some traditions will prescribe one, whereas others will prescribe two, and yet others may prescribe another number. They might give an arbitrary reason for this, but in the end, it's a matter of preference I think.
