Asafoetida Resin (Heeng / Hing)

While the asafoetida plant is most known as an herb for use in food, it also is a powerful form of incense that when burned cleans our astral (emotional) environment.

If you have been feeling emotionally drained, low, or dark, you might need to do a good cleaning, especially of your bedroom. You can also pass the smoke of asafoetida around your body. We use it regularly, sometimes more than once a week (especially after being in places where people suffer or are intense). People who live or work in intense environments can use this incense daily to stay clean. 

As a cleansing incense it is very effective, totally natural, and far safer than using sulfur powder. 

This asafoetida resin is produced in India for use in food. It is the highest quality available. It is many times stronger and purer than the powdered versions sold in stores.

Because this asafoetida resin is so potent, usage only requires only a tiny amount. However you use it, start with less than you expect to need. For instance, on incense charcoal, you only need one or two small pieces. In cooking, a very tiny pinch is enough. 

Asafoetida is highly valued for its rich flavor. Since this resin is very high quality, it is also very "aromatic." It does not smell like the parsley / fennel family it comes from, but more like roasted garlic or onions. When cooked or burned as incense, the fragrance changes. 

Includes one (1) ounce of asafoetida resin, packaged in a reusable, food-grade pouch made from natural Japanese kraft paper with a resealable airtight zip lock closure.

USES OF ASAFOETIDA

  • Sprinkle on incense charcoal to create smoke that will cleanse a space 
  • Use as a spice in your cooking (its great in dal)

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Good quality asafoetida resin is sold in chunks to prove it is pure (ground asafoetida is usually mixed with fillers, like wheat). To prepare for use as incense, it is advisable to crush the chunks into powder; this helps it burn more cleanly and avoid a "burned" fragrance. 

In a brazier or fire-safe pot, light an incense charcoal. When it is white hot, place a little bit of incense onto the coal. The smoke will purify the area.

Beautiful light

This resin is really hard to find. I’m glad I found a source for it. It’s really strong for spiritual clearing. The light of it is profound

Effective for cleansing any space

A unique, strong, and effective incense for cleansing any space of unwanted energies. If you are looking to truly cleanse and reset, Asafoetida is a must-have. It smells pungent, a bit like onion/garlic but not unpleasant to me, although I do like to follow up with an aromatic incense. It’s on par with sulfur without the toxicity or hassle, which is why I will be using this indefinitely. Thank you, Glorian.
