Burning this Buddha is not blasphemy: an ancient Zen wisdom states that Buddha is not an external sacred being, but can be found exclusively within ourselves; thus, he can neither be burned nor killed. The candles of Candles of Wisdom symbolize the transient nature of our mental constructs and the lasting gain of knowledge when one frees oneself from them. Inside the candle is a coin of wisdom with quotes from ancient Buddhist scriptures; you can only find out which message is for you by burning the candle. 

Please wait until the candle has cooled down completely before removing the coin. The square hole in the centre of your lucky coin allows you to turn it into a necklace or keychain and carry it with you at all times.
