To each there own I guess . Thank god its not a pre-requisite for meditation , Anita Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904219782540965444.post-51644896606424932012012-11-13T09:50:03.270-05:002012-11-13T09:50:03.270-05:00Here's your bells old chum.

I settled on another option. In less lucrative times I started to half each stick (even tried breaking into three pieces). At the beginning I missed the thicker scent but now I prefer the less thick scent and have continued half-ing.<br /><br />Even made a ritual out of the process.<br /><br />I just checked the Shoyeido site. There's a decent price for 1 box of 150 sticks, 5.25" $37.50 <br />Item 12758<br />Sandalwood, patchouli, clove, spices<br />Approx. burning time: 30 min. per stick<br />UPC# 0 32110 12758 2<br /><br />If you break each of these 150 in half that's 300 sittings.<br /><br />Try it.<br /><br />Or use a single bundle of 35 @$6.95 and get 70 sittings of it.<br />Really. Try it.<br /><br /><br />Also consider making new friends.<br />There's http://olfactoryrescueservice.wordpress.com/<br />to get you started.<br /><br />I recommend you try Baieido incense. However its better fragrances are no cheaper and it's highest grades may bust your budget for a decade!<br /><br />Visit<br />http://www.oller.net<br />http://www.oller.net/baieido.htm<br /><br />A fair assortment sold here:<br />http://www.sensia.com/baieido.htm<br />Scroll to bottom for the samplers.<br /><br />Finally, you might enjoy perusing this old associated (but highly biased) incense web site:<br />http://www.japanese-incense.com/<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
