Gurudev, why do we offer incense and a lamp to the Divine who has created such a fragrant creation and the mighty Sun?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

See, doing all this is just a play. Do not think too much about this. It is all done to create an atmosphere of sacredness and purity, that’s it. You do not need to burn incense or light a lamp to please God. When you are happy and content from within, God is pleased.
