How to use incense?

Using incense is simple and meaningful. Light the end of the stick, blow out the flame and place the incense in a stand or in a bowl with ashes. Place the burning incense in the centre or corner of a room so that the smoke spreads evenly. This way, you will enjoy the delicate fragrance that fills the atmosphere even after the stick has burned up.
