Should you go with the flow or not? Should you surrender or should you manifest and create your own reality?
I am going to answer your question from experience, my experience and the experiences of many of my clients and students. So this will not be an intellectual answer or one based on suppositions or beliefs.
You ‘should’ do whatever you feel inspired to do. There really is no should involved in this. But there is the appearance of choice.
You can choose to imagine that life and reality are yours and that you can control and create your own reality. Most people do. But there is a price to pay for living this delusion. If you choose to live in this way then there will be struggle, suffering and there will always be unintended consequences. Inner peace will only be a fleeting or periodic experience no matter how ‘successful’ you become. Total and complete fulfillment will be elusive and out of reach. Experience of the flow will be intermittent at best and only at moments when you are completely focused on a particular task or practice.
If you choose and commit to constant total and absolute surrender then you relinquish the belief that you are in control of reality and that life belongs to you; Life flows beautifully, Synchronicity is how events play out every day, Everything working out perfectly becomes the norm. All of this happens effortlessly, without stress, without struggle, without suffering and without control.
The surrender requires great courage at first. Letting go of the beliefs that limit you takes some time and experience. Eventually the process becomes autonomic. I have posted an article about exactly how to do this and posted it at my blog
. You are most welcome to read it there and to use all the meditations and practices I have posted.

I love that the multiple holes mean I can use this with any size/type of incense from more common types to the Japanese type without the inner stick. The only issue is that the metal holder part is very deep so about an entire inch of the Japanese-style incense gets wasted which for such short sticks is a fair bit.

This agate green incense burner is beautiful. It holds two sticks of incense at once. I love the looks of it. It’s sturdy and the colors are perfect. It holds all the ash…no more on your counters.

I love this incense holder, it holds all ashes, no more spilling on the sides like those thin ones you can buy everywhere. You can also use it as a tray for gemstones, or just a piece of art on a table set, any way you use it, it looks beautiful.

I bought the first one as a gift and liked it so much I bought one for myself. It catches all of the ash. No more mess on the table! It also makes a nice rolling tray. Double the use!

Extremely pleased with this beautiful incense holder. I purchased the white and ocean ceramic. Stunning and goes with my warm decor. The incense is perfectly centered, so no messes to clean up. Sturdy and the ceramic is lovely.

I had such a hard time finding an incense holder for the sticks. Most are for cones or only have one hole for a stick. Made its way all the way from New York to Canada in one piece. The centerpiece is not attached and there are two gold inserts for different sizes of sticks.

I reviewed this previously more in-depth, but apparently, amazon is erasing reviews and trying to get ppl kicked out of the program. So I will not be rewriting it.

I would always use the narrow ones and they always made a mess. This one is wide enough to catch everything, has no mess, is easy to clean, and looks nice.

This is great! The only thing is you have to make sure your cones smell nice as he smells really smoky and also you need to put him on a surface you’re not that bothered about as even though a little protective mat is provided the smoke spreads and it can leave marks.
Steven Richardson –
This is a great incense holder. It holds 2 sticks, and ashes never fall outside the holder. Highly recommend. And when I need , I will buy more as gifts.

Good quality shirts, although the neck elastics vary in tightness between the various colours.

Goes well with casual and more business look. I’ve used it for the office and for general casual wear. I bought the charcoal heather variant with a pocket.

Not only is the subject matter very well written for dumb people. The garden pictures are fantastic. You can keep this on the bedside and mentally clense by looking at beautiful garden pictures.

It’s cute ..I like the design but be careful to touch because I almost burn my self
Gigi –
Very good but gets really hot when burning charcoal disk
Robert Rose –
A bit smaller than I expected (fits in the palm of your hand). Otherwise, it is as beautiful as the pictures and performs as expected. Would gift it to a friend.

I like burning incense, but I don’t like the ash going all over the place as it burns. I also don’t like how tacky and cheap so many incense burners look. This one is great! It captures the incense ash and is so pretty that I’ve set it up in my living room.
Vanessa Sulpician –
I love the Tree Spirit back flow incense burner. He looks so lovely and is very nicely detailed. I have him sat by my computer next to another tree spirit tea light holder also by” Nemesis Now!Highly recommended.
Wolf Sprenger –

Lamees –
once i learned how to slow down the the charcoal burning and hold the heat down a bit, i can now slow burn my incense or burn it fast depending on my requirement, this burner looks as beautiful as I hoped it would .
