    I like the version with the fewer items.
    3*3 bows (9) is something good in Zen, too. (Buddha, Dharma, Sangha squared).

    No triskaidekaphobia over here (was born on a 13th).
    If I remember right, the 13 is something good in Israel / Judaism, too.
    13 is the age of religious maturity (Bar Mizwa).
    In Gematria? (mysticism) 13 is the numerical value of "love" and "(the) one" (God).

      Thank you Kotei. Decided to go for the middle ground and have three burners.
