CAN WE PROCEED TO DO HOUSE CHORES RIGHT AFTER WE OFFER INCENSE AND PERFORM OBEISANCE, OR DO WE NEED TO EXTINGUISH THE OIL LAMP FIRST

(Master Jun Hong Lu’s call-in radio program)

Caller: After offering incense, a Buddhist friend will go about performing recitation while doing house chores (cooking, taking out the laundry, etc.). In such cases, do we need to extinguish the oil lamp before performing the chores?

Master Jun Hong Lu: It is best to have the oil lamp extinguished.

Caller: Alright.
