What is Nag Champa?
Nag Champa is
an Indian scent that is most commonly found in incense or oil form. Although
these are the most common forms, you may also find Nag Champa in soaps,
perfumes and candles. In India, Nag Champa is burned in front of statues as
offerings to the Gods for goodwill.
Nag Champa is
created using a variety of exotic ingredients. Although the champa flower is
the base there are other spices, oils, gums and resins (such as sandalwood)
used to enhance the scent and hold the incense together.
You can burn
Nag Champa resins, oils or incense for a variety of reasons. It is wonderful
for use during times of contemplation, meditation and spiritual development.
Because it contains Sandalwood, it makes the perfect
smudging companion as it cleanses, purifies and sanctifies its surrounding
areas.
