The Geographical Significance of the Vernal EquinoxFor people living in the Northern Hemisphere, when the sun passes through the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox respectively, it means it is spring or autumn.The point where the sun reaches its northernmost point after passing the vernal equinox is called the summer solstice, and the point 180° away from it is called the winter solstice. The sun passes through the summer solstice and winter solstice around June 22 and December 22 respectively every year. Similarly, for people living in the Northern Hemisphere, when the Sun is near the summer solstice and the winter solstice, it is astronomically summer and winter. There are four aspects to the meaning of burning incense1. To show sincere and respectful offerings to the Three Jewels, and to demonstrate and guide sentient beings.2. It means transmitting information to the void Dharma Realm and gaining blessings from the Three Treasures in all directions. 3. It means burning oneself to spread fragrance to all directions, reminding Buddhist disciples to make selfless contributions. 4. It means that the Buddhists' precepts, concentration and true incense have been lit, which contains the silent vow to "diligently cultivate precepts, concentration and wisdom, and extinguish greed, noise and ignorance". The Buddha does not like the big and expensive incense in the world, but he likes the precepts, concentration, truth and incense of his disciples. It is best to burn three incense sticks. This represents the three non-leakage studies of precepts, concentration and wisdom; it also represents the offerings to the permanent Three Jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. This is the most complete and civilized way of burning incense and offering. It is not the number of incense sticks you burn that matters, but the sincerity of your heart. As the saying goes, "Burn three civilized incense sticks and offer a sincere heart." Generally, it is enough to light three incense sticks in front of the main hall. After lighting the incense, it should be inserted in the middle of the incense burner. The first incense stick should be inserted in the middle, and one should silently recite in one's heart to offer to the Buddha, to be awakened and not confused; the second incense stick should be inserted on the right, and one should silently recite in one's heart to offer to the Dharma, to be righteous and not evil; the third incense stick should be inserted on the left, and one should silently recite in one's heart to offer to the monks, to be pure and not tainted.
