According to the scriptures, "The meaning of 'powdered incense' is purity. Just as worldly incense can purify defilement and relieve the heat of the brain, now practitioners use the water of the void to wash away the 160 kinds of idle thoughts and defilements within the Bodhi mind. By applying it with the precept of non-action, the heat of birth and death is extinguished, and a refreshing nature is attained. Therefore, it is called 'powdered incense'." This powdered incense is also carefully blended using only the finest natural fragrances such as sandalwood, agarwood, turmeric, and borneol to fulfill that purpose.
