In ancient times, there were harvest sacrifices to heaven and Mars in autumn. It is recorded in Lüshi Chunqiu·Ji Qiu Ji that in ancient times people offered sacrifices to the Emperor of Heaven and their ancestors when the crops were harvested in September to thank the Emperor of Heaven and their ancestors for their kindness. This is the original form of the Double Ninth Festival as an autumn harvest sacrificial activity. The Double Ninth Festival originated in ancient times, took shape in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, became popular in the Western Han Dynasty, and reached its peak after the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty was an important period in which traditional festival customs were blended and finalized, and the main parts of them have been passed down to this day. The custom of ancestor worship on the Double Ninth Festival has been passed down for thousands of years and is an ancient custom with profound significance. The Double Ninth Festival is known as one of the four major traditional Chinese festivals for ancestor worship, along with New Year's Eve, Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival. There are four aspects to the meaning of burning incense:1. To show sincere and respectful offerings to the Three Jewels, and to demonstrate and guide sentient beings.2. It means transmitting information to the void Dharma Realm and gaining blessings from the Three Treasures in all directions. 3. It means burning oneself to spread fragrance to all directions, reminding Buddhist disciples to make selfless contributions. 4. It means that the Buddhists' precepts, concentration and true incense have been lit, which contains the silent vow to "diligently cultivate precepts, concentration and wisdom, and extinguish greed, noise and ignorance". The Buddha does not like the big and expensive incense in the world, but he likes the precepts, concentration, truth and incense of his disciples. It is best to burn three incense sticks. This represents the three non-leakage studies of precepts, concentration and wisdom; it also represents the offerings to the permanent Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. This is the most complete and civilized way of burning incense and offering. It is not the number of incense sticks you burn that matters, but the sincerity of your heart. As the saying goes, "Burn three civilized incense sticks and offer a sincere heart." Generally, it is enough to light three incense sticks in front of the main hall. After lighting the incense, they should be inserted in the middle of the incense burner. The first incense stick should be inserted in the middle, and you should silently recite in your heart: offering to the Buddha, awakening and not being confused; the second incense stick should be inserted on the right, and you should silently recite in your heart: offering to the Dharma, being righteous and not evil; the third incense stick should be inserted on the left, and you should silently recite in your heart: offering to the monks, being pure and not being tainted.
