Awaji Baikundou Purifying Incense (for 2026, the Year of Misfortune, and for Warding Off Evil Spirits) - Amacha Incense, 90g, for Use In Rooms and At

This incense is burned to "switch gears," not for the enjoyment of its fragrance. It is a quiet practice passed down since ancient times in Japan to clear the mind and space. In Japan, incense is more than just a scent; it has been used to clear away daily impurities and unconscious blockages and to clear the mind. It marks the beginning of the morning, a transition into the evening, and a turning point in life. Burning incense is considered a quiet ritual to reflect on oneself and correct the flow. This incense was selected based on this spiritual culture of Japan. Awaji Baikundou's Amacha incense is made from sweet tea, a favorite food of Buddha. Likened to the nectar poured over the Buddha's newborn during the Flower Festival on April 8th, sweet tea has come to symbolize purification and blessing. For this reason, Amacha incense has long been used at important events and life milestones as an incense to ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune. This incense is not a luxury item, but rather a tribute. First, the incense of sweet tea, a favorite food, is beautifully offered to Buddha and ancestors, expressing gratitude and respect. Receiving the incense as a gift helps to calm the mind and naturally bring about a positive flow. This is the Japanese concept of a "Buddha's feast." Uses: ・When you want to change the flow, such as during unlucky years or Setsubun; ・New Year's Eve, the New Year, and other life milestones; ・Give thanks and prayers to the Buddhist altar or Shinto altar; ・Welcoming ancestors, such as during Obon.
