I have read you can mix the sage, cedar and sweetgrass together, burn them in a clay pot, and recite prayers as the smoke is washed over you and the place you wish to be cleased and blessed; I have also read the sage, cedar and sweetgrass are burned separately, as prayers are recited and the smoke is washed over you. Does it matter? Where I can get reliable information?

Smudging is not only used in the religious or spiritual sense, it can also be used to clear negative energy and in physical healing. Consequently, if I were in your shoes, I'd try and find a good Native Shaman to teach you. Until you are able to find someone practiced in this spiritual art, check out this website. Hit the "smudging" link in order to get some valuable information.

your burning weeds in a clay pot to cleanse you and pray...and your looking for reliable information...are you sure you will recognize it when you see it?
