Xuan Tian Shang Ti Talisman
This is the Talisman of Xuan Tian Shang Ti, a Taoist Deity well known to suppress evil. This Talisman is burned and the ashes are placed into a bowl of water. It is used to purify water and to destroy evil or "Sha". The water is sprinkled and a boundary is defined. No evil spirits are able to enter within the boundary.
