The significance of burning incense has four aspects:
1. Expressing loyalty, obedience, and offering to the Three Treasures,
This serves as a demonstration to attract sentient beings.
2. Indicating the transmission of information to the Void Realm,

Grateful for the blessing of the Three Treasures of the Ten Directions.


3. Indicating the combustion itself, the fragrance is universal,
Remind Buddhist disciples to selflessly dedicate themselves.
4. Indicating the lighting of the Buddhist precepts and true incense,
Containing the vow of diligence in practicing precepts, steadfastness, and wisdom,
To quell greed, noise, and obsession,
Buddha is not fond of the great and precious fragrances in the world,
But he loves the precepts, steadfastness, truth, and fragrance of Buddhist disciples.
