Throughout the ages, from emperors and generals to ordinary people, countless people have placed their spiritual hopes on burning incense and worshiping Buddha.

Can I burn incense and worship Buddha during my menstrual period?

Can.
Women can go to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha during their menstrual period, but secular people tend to regard this period as unclean and dirty, so they stop doing good deeds such as chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha. Buddhism is different. It emphasizes purifying the mind and intention. If the mind and intention are pure, all states of mind will be pure. Therefore, you only need to wash away the dirt, change into clean clothes, enter the Buddhist temple, burn incense and chant. There will be no hindrance. As for Buddhist samaneris, bhikkhunis and laywomen, they are all female practitioners who live in temples and are accompanied by scriptures, statues and religious objects every day. They have never suffered any disasters due to the so-called conflicts during their menstrual periods.

The efficacy of burning incense

First, if the incense catches fire when it is burned, it is a good omen. However, if there is no open flame but black smoke comes out, it is a very bad omen.

Third, general Lingguang incense will have sparks, and the sparks will fly everywhere. If this happens, it is a good sign, otherwise the opposite.
Fourth, if the color of the incense ash is white, it is a good omen, but if it is black, it is a very ominous sign. If you encounter a very bad omen, you should ask the temple priest to help you resolve it!
