Description

This Japanese incense is carefully handmade in Japan with unique ingredients (shells and other derivatives of typical Japanese animals, cinnamon roots, clove, ginger lily, lavender, licorice, patchouli, chamomile, rhubarb, safflower, star anise and other herbs) leaving a wonderful and refined fragrance.

Incense became practical in Japan during the 6th century with the introduction of the Buddhism, which uses incense during its rituals and ceremonies. From there, the Incense becomes an important facet of Japanese culture. Incense is used for a variety of purposes, including Buddhist ceremonies, spirituality, and meditation.

The word incense ( kō ) in Japan is literal translation for “fragrance”, although in the context it is understood as “incense”. The word 道dō can be added, meaning “way,” to give kōdō : the “way of incense,” which involves the use of incense within a codified framework of conduct, as a way of life. Then there’s a whole ritual behind a japanese incense light. There is a reflecting on your life path and mission and a reconnecting back to that path.
