How Incense Helps

Closely associated with lamp jothi worship is the use of incense sticks in worship. Light a minimum of two incense sticks along with your lamp jothis. Once again the more the merrier.

Sathguru Venkataraman has repeatedly said that lamp jothis and incense have the power to neutralize negative forces since they bring the divine inside your house. They are a simple way of marshalling the divine force to drive away the negative forces from your house.

Do negative forces exist? Yes, say the Siddhas. They are the forces that act as obstacles on the spiritual path. The world is beset with these forces but the Siddhas have provided us with ways and means of combating them. We must learn to use these techniques diligently from the Sathguru so that our spiritual progress is not marred.

Dhoopam (Frankincense)

The Siddhas say that they brought doopam (frankincense) from the world of Devas to us so that we humans can benefit from its deep spiritual properties. Doopam has the power to drive away negative forces and ensure a peaceful, spritual atmosphere.

Doopam is an ideal offering to God. Doopam in jeeva samadhi(the tomb shrines of Siddhas) can solve a lot of our material and spiritual problems.
