Generally, it is better to burn one stick of incense (three sticks). One stick is the Kaitai incense, which represents a happy family, loving father and filial son, good fortune and luck, and health and longevity. Three pillars (nine branches) are the incense of progress, which brings harmony among relatives, stability among neighbors, fame and fortune, and good health and longevity. The nine pillars (also known as the nine grades, with incense sticks inserted horizontally in a row of three in a square shape) are the rotating incense, which can reach in all directions, transfer and ascend to higher positions, when all things cease to exist, and the four elements are empty. (Generally not used) What are the customs of burning incense during the Ghost Festival?Before burning incense every time, you must first consider what color of incense to burn. Only by burning the right incense can you receive supreme blessings . The colors of incense on the market are generally only red, yellow, and green. These three colors of incense are not all suitable for burning incense. There are obvious differences between them:Red represents joy and is generally used in weddings, festivals and celebrations. Yellow represents respect and is generally used for celebrating birthdays, inviting gods, worshipping Buddha, and relieving disasters, which is the most reasonable color. The color green represents darkness and is usually used for things like capturing ghosts, sending flower trays, opening spirits, and performing vegetarian rituals. The real meaning of burning incense and worshiping Buddha is to express respect, gratitude and remembrance for the Buddha. Get rid of the stain and become pure, dedicate your life, and awaken your life. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
