The Scriptures of Religions from all over the world have used burnt offerings as a way to speak to the Source and Power of their religions. Natives do as well and it is called a Smoke Bowl or the bowl of a Pipe, which is called a Peace Pipe. Only truth and purity can be put forth and be present at such a ceremony. The Spirit of the Smoke summons healing and balancing to the site and origin of the burnt offering. The particular herbs used here on North America are Sage and Cedar and sometimes sweetgrass or other herbs are used that are in particular response to the individual reason the Sacred Smoke is being used.
