Incense Burners

Post Reply New Topic

As of recently, I've had a desire to get an incense burner for my bedroom. I'm apprehensive of this, though, because I'm afraid I might have a clumsy spell and set my room on fire.

Has anyone here ever owned an incense burner? If so, are they easy to use?

I had an incense burner at one time, and they're very easy to use. All that you do, is stick the incense into the little hole, than light it.

Yeah, and it doesn't burn like a candle does with an open flame. It pretty much just lightly smokes. If you're worried, keep it in a place that, even if you bump it, it won't be near anything flammable like curtains or something. Or, you could try those little cones--they are pretty stable.

They are relatively safe.
Finding a place that is out of the way and stable is a precaution.

I am a bit surprised that you can stand incense. For me it is difficult, I get problems with breathing and places with too much artificial smell are left as soon as possible.

i don't like putting them in small rooms because the smell is stronger and yes it's a dryer smell. i recommend a nice open room. do not inhale the smoke directly either. also there's a rumour that overuse can cause cancer. it's just a rumour but i don't use them too often.

And also be careful where the ashes fall down: it's not always on the burner!
Put it away from papers and everything that could be burnt or damaged.
