Tibetan Frankincense Incense Sticks

Tibetan Frankincense Incense Sticks are traditionally hand-rolled from natural herbs, resins, oils and other ingredients. Frankincense, also known as Boswellia, is one of the most highly valued substances since ancient times. One of the gifts that the Three Wise Men presented to the baby Jesus, frankincense is commonly used by Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus and Buddhists for religious rituals and ceremonies.

This highly aromatic incense releases an uplifting scent when burnt, which promotes awareness, serenity and relaxation, making it highly suitable for meditation and yoga. It is excellent for cleansing and purifying the environment of unwanted energies and to aid stress-relief. It is also particularly used during spiritual ceremonies to create a peaceful and calm atmosphere.

Buddhists also offer incense to purify what has been offered on the altar and to create the causes to have morality, ethics and hold one's vows well - virtues of the Bodhisattva spirit of selfless altruism to benefit others. Hence it is strongly encouraged to offer the best incense (and by extension, the best offerings) that one can afford.

These natural incense sticks are non-toxic and safe for inhalation. Includes a complimentary incense holder. For the best experience, burn in a Tibetan-style incense burner.
