The "Pure Myrrh of Mount Athos with the old traditional recipe" is the final product of a combination of incense, fragrance, and magnesium, without any other additives. One of the oldest and most important uses of incense is in worship ceremonies, especially in Church Services, where the incense is a key element of the ritual and worship.
The offering of incense by the faithful is a commandment of God from the Old Testament, dating back many millennia. Before the commencement of the incensing, the priest blesses the incense, asking God to have as a result the “grace of the Holy Spirit.”
The phrase “Incense we offer unto You, Christ our God, as a sweet-smelling fragrance...” is part of the service connected with the sacrifice and the offering.
During Vespers, the prayer “Let my prayer be directed as incense before you” is chanted, indicating the beginning of the psalmody part of the service and the connection to the incensing by the priest.
The fathers of the Holy Great Monastery of Vatopedi produce the incense with personal care, prayer, and a sense of responsibility, ensuring exceptional quality, great variety, with no additives and fragrances that last until the end of the burning.
