Does anybody use it in their prayer/meditation/whatever regularly?
I mean, it's used in India, it's mentioned often in the bible, it's used by Native Americans and many native tribes around the world.
I've read that smoke allows us to see the demension of the spirit world.
Does anybody else feel it helps make things otherworldly during their worship times?

I don't burn it constantly because then you just get used to it. It takes away from the whole thing.
Vanilla is nice. I also love Nag Champa. That stuff has been blended the same way for thousands of years.

Oh, yes. Us Wiccans use it in Ritual almost always, along with sacred White sage to purify. Nag Champa is great!! The sense of smell is the sense most connected to emotion in the brain, so while in a daydreaming-like state, as we get into while in Ritual, the smell can trigger thoughts and memories not possible without it. Blessed be!!

I love it. (My room smells like incense. Because of it I've been accused of being a hippie.) I just like to use it during meditation., I find it helps me connect with the Gods.

I love incense as long as it is used properly (unlike those hippies who keep that stuff going 24/7 and then my mind starts to think of it as an odor).
