Episode 12 - Incense Offerings. Sacred Scents to carry your prayers to the Gods. From the Frankincense and Myrrh of the Bible to the Patchouli of the Hippies, precious woods, resins and flowers have been more valuable than gold, guarded like silk and trafficed like spice. The multi-billion perfume "by smoke" industry is based on these amazing ingredients. Indian Ghandi "perfumers", Arabic Bakhoor merchants, Buddhist Monks and native shamans all have their secret and sacred recipies. We discuss the harvest, use and components of Agarwood, Sandalwood, Palo Santo, Amber, Musk, Nag Champa, Benzoin, Copal, Dragon's Blood, Camphor, Rose, Jasmine, Lavender, and many others. We discuss the Goddesses Kali and Hathor, how to protect yourself against flying snakes and find a million dollars on the beach!
