Is it auspicious to have your hands burned by ashes when inserting incense?
Burning your hands with incense ashes means something good will happen.
There is a saying that if your hands are burned by the ashes when burning incense, it is called "hands are fragrant", which means that the hot ashes indicate that something good will "succeed" (that is, something good will happen). It means that the wish of the person who burns incense may come true. It also means that the person who burns incense has a predestined relationship with the Buddha. As long as he is sincere, everything can come true. When your hands are burned by the ashes of incense, sometimes the Buddha is reminding the incense burner, such as forgetting something, not returning a wish, or touching a spiritual object that should not be touched, etc.
If your hands are burned by the ashes when burning incense, sometimes it is because there is something unlucky in the house of the incense burner, or the incense burner is possessed by an evil spirit. At this time, you should find a master to check and resolve it in time. Being burned may also be because the incense burner said something he shouldn't have said or violated a taboo. The Buddha directly used the incense to remind the incense burner to pay attention. This will not happen again.
Feng Shui taboos for burning incense
1. Dress appropriately
When you come to the temple to burn incense, you should dress modestly and plainly, and try not to wear flashy clothes, otherwise you will be in trouble when you are there. You will look out of place in a crowd. Especially for girls, when coming to worship Buddha in summer, do not wear suspenders and short skirts to keep cool. This is very taboo in a Buddhist center. In addition, you should remember to take a shower and wash yourself at home before going out to burn incense. It is said that this can wash away more mundane distractions and make you feel at ease.
2. Things to do when entering the temple
People who often go to the temple will find that there are two doors leading to the temple, one is the middle door, and the other is the small door next to it. Generally speaking, the gate of a temple is the exclusive passage for Buddhist disciples in the courtyard. Anyone who goes to worship Buddha must use the small door in the middle. When stepping into a doorway, your feet should be raised as high as possible and do not touch the threshold, otherwise it will be considered unlucky. In addition, you also need to be focused when crossing the threshold. Men step with their left foot first, and women with their right foot first, which is consistent with the ancient saying that men are on the left and women are on the right.
