Incense Lighting Offering

Bringing a stick of incense to our forhead three times we honor the three treasures: the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha.         I offer this incense to the Buddha (first raising)         I offer this incense to the Dharma (second raising)         I offer this incense to the Sangha (third raising) The incense stick is then placed in the incense bowl while reciting:         Shanti, Shanti, Shanti (peace, peace, peace)
