The visible flame is not the end of the burning.
During Seventh Month, the designated joss-paper burners beside our HDB blocks are there for a reason. They contain the burning and keep it away from buildings, electrical equipment, parked vehicles and vegetation.
When making offerings:
✅Use the designated burner provided by the Town Council.
✅Burn the joss paper in small batches and keep it inside the burner.
✅Stay with the burner while it is in use.
✅Before leaving, check that no incense or embers are still smouldering.
✅Clear food offerings and litter after the prayers.
Respect is not only in how the ritual begins. It is also in how we leave the space: with the last ember fully out.
