5. After burning the Little House

 

After burning the Little Houses, say, “I bow in gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva for helping me, <your full name>, offer these Little Houses to <name of the recipient>. I express my sincere gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva for protecting and blessing me!” (followed by one prostration).

 

You can also say corresponding prayers. For example, if you offer Little Houses to your Karmic Creditor, you could pray to Guan Yin Bodhisattva to grant you good health, safety and good fortune. If you use Little Houses to resolve karmic conflicts with someone, you could pray to Guan Yin Bodhisattva to help you resolve the negative karmic affinity between you and that person.
