The Introduction of Incense Burner Knowledge

          In the time of the Buddha, the Indian nation also popularized incense, and after Buddhism spread to China and merged into the Chinese society, the Chinese incense burners entered the Buddhist hall. It became an offering burner for incense, which is known as the "treasure cauldron" in Buddhism. It is offered together with vases and candlesticks in front of the Buddha, one of the eighteen objects for monks.

 The materials used are mostly metal, jade, magnet, pottery, and sandalwood, among others. The shapes are diverse and can be broadly categorized into four types, namely

 (1) The incense burners placed on the table, such as the Bo Shan shape, the fire shed shape, the Jinyin Temple shape, the octopus shape, the cauldron shape, the three-legged shape, and the incense imprint plate shape.

  (2) The handle incense burner held in the hand, such as lotus shape, lion town shape, magpie tail shape, etc.

  (3) The hook incense burner used in Zen meditation.

  (4) During the initiation, the recipient crosses over and is symbolically purified in the image of a furnace.

    In Buddhism, incense burners of different shapes are used in different locations, and they are burned with different types of incense. For example, the large incense burners commonly seen in the center of the Great Hero Hall or at the door of the hall, are usually cast from metals such as copper or iron, or carved from stone. The burners are engraved with the name of the temple, and they are used by believers to place incense sticks.

 The incense burners on the altar tables in the grand hall are made of copper, stone, or porcelain, used to burn sandalwood incense. The grand hall of a Buddhist temple always has a rectangular incense burner with a delicate small incense burner for burning sandalwood incense placed on it. In front of the plate, there is a draped incense burner with embroidered edges, which is very solemn and beautiful and is exclusively used by the abbot monk for burning incense. After the Buddhist ceremony in the grand hall is completed, if they need to worship in other side halls, the attendant monk will carry the incense burner ahead, and the monk will then go to the side hall to burn incense. The reclining incense burner is more suitable for home believers in their family Buddha hall, also available in copper and porcelain. Cut off the section of bamboo branch under the wire incense and place it flat in the reclining incense burner to burn, so that the ash will not fly and contaminate the altar table. The small wooden incense burner with a lotus shape and a long handle can only hold one incense stick. It is used in Buddhist rituals for the main monk and the host to hold in their hands, called the hand incense burner.

  We often see circular incense burners in temples, which have three legs, one in front and two in back, which is the correct way to place them; they are often used as a metaphor for the Three Jewels of Buddhism, which are all essential.
