The religious uses of incense are perhaps the best known to Western audiences. These uses are of great antiquity, and may have their origin in the practical and aesthetic uses considering that many religions with not much else in common all use incense. One common motif is of incense as a form of sacrifical offering to a deity.

Hinduism was possibly the first religion in which incense was used and sacrificed to show loyalty to God. As part of the daily ritual worship within the Hindu tradition of India, incense is offered to God in His deity forms, such as Krishna and Lord Rama. This practice is still commonplace throughout modern-day India, it is said in Bhagavad-Gita that "Krishna accepts the offering made to Him with love," it is on this principle that articles are offered each day by temple priests, or people with an altar in their homes.
