Divine Illumination: A Set of Ganesha-Lakshmi Brass Wick Lamps

Invite blessings and prosperity into your home with this exquisite set of two handmade brass wick lamps, each gracefully crowned with the divine forms of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail in India, these lamps are more than just sources of light; they are conduits of auspicious energy, designed to elevate your spiritual practice and enhance the ambiance of any sacred space. The rich, lustrous brass, polished to a warm glow, embodies the enduring value and sacredness associated with this ancient metal, believed to possess purifying properties.

Guardians of Wisdom and Wealth

Each lamp is a testament to the artisanal skill passed down through generations. The set features two magnificent pieces, each standing approximately 16 inches tall, designed to serve as focal points for devotion and celebration. One lamp is graced by the benevolent presence of Lord Ganesha, the Remover of Obstacles and the patron of arts and sciences. His elephantine form, seated regally, is a symbol of wisdom, intelligence, and good fortune. His presence is often invoked before any new venture, ensuring smooth beginnings and success. Beside him, on smaller sconces extending from the main lamp structure, is his faithful vahana, the mouse, symbolizing our desires and the need to control them to achieve wisdom. The second lamp features Goddess Lakshmi, the divine consort of Lord Vishnu and the embodiment of wealth, fortune, and beauty. Seated in a posture of divine grace, her four arms symbolize the four goals of human life: dharma (righteousness), artha (wealth), kama (desire), and moksha (liberation). Her presence is sought to bring abundance, prosperity, and well-being. Adorning the side extensions of this lamp are elegant peacocks, birds sacred to Goddess Lakshmi, representing beauty, royalty, and auspiciousness, further enhancing the divine energy emanating from this lamp. ––––––––––

A Legacy of Light and Tradition

These lamps are designed with multiple tiers, each capable of holding a wick, allowing for a radiant and multi-dimensional display of light. The tiered structure itself can be seen as a representation of ascending spiritual consciousness, leading towards the divine figures at the apex. The intricate carvings and ornate design of the base and the supporting arms speak to the deep-rooted traditions of Indian craftsmanship. In Hindu culture, the act of lighting a lamp, or "diya," is a significant ritual, symbolizing the triumph of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. These lamps, with their divine patrons, amplify this symbolic meaning, transforming your space into a sanctuary of peace, prosperity, and spiritual awakening. They are perfect for daily puja, festive occasions like Diwali, or as a statement piece that embodies cultural heritage and devotion.

The Power of Light: Understanding the Role of Oil Lamps in

Hinduism Hinduism is a boon to human society for it guides everyone to follow their Dharma and rise above the material concept of life. Hinduism is also known as “Sanatan Dharma”. These are Sanskrit terms in which Sanatan means “eternal” and Dharma means “Intrinsic nature or occupation”. Thus it deals with the intrinsic nature or the real identity of the living entities; that which can never be taken away from them. The principles of Hinduism are given in the Vedic literature or scriptures that are considered “Apaurusheya”; they have not been written by any ordinary person but have been compiled by Vyasadev, the literary incarnation of the Supreme Lord Krishna. The word “Veda” means complete knowledge, both material and spiritual. The knowledge in Vedic literature is so vast and precise that if one looks carefully, he will notice that nothing is sentimental or imaginary but is based on facts and truth. There is a clear description and information about the identity of all living beings, the nature of the Absolute Truth, the reason for the existence of this world, the information about the world beyond this universe, and the relationship between us and God, the Absolute Truth.

Why do we light a lamp?

There are many rituals recommended in the Vedas for engaging our body and mind in the service of God. One of them is the lighting of ghee or oil lamps before the deity. According to the Vedic injunctions, all auspicious functions begin with lighting a lamp. It has a great spiritual significance. It is believed that the light of the lamp symbolizes “knowledge”, the wick symbolizes the false ego of the living entity, and ghee (clarified butter) or oil symbolizes all the negative tendencies (Anarthas) accumulated in the heart such as greed, lust, anger, and envy. When the lamp is lit by spiritual knowledge, all the Anarthas are exhausted, and the false ego, which is the root cause of conditional life, is also burnt. Therefore, the lamp is lit before the Lord as a sacrifice of our false ego in His service. Just as the light of the lamp dissipates all darkness, similarly, the light of knowledge dissipates ignorance of the Jivas and enables us to realize our real identity and purpose of life.

Why only an oil or ghee lamp?

One may question why only an oil lamp is lit before the Lord and why not an artificial light source. This may sound logical but lighting a lamp has a further spiritual significance. The flame of the light in a lamp always burns upwards indicating that by cultivating spiritual knowledge, one achieves the highest perfection of life and is always victorious. Also, a traditional lamp is the purest form of offering.

In almost every house of a follower of Sanatan Dharma, an oil or ghee lamp is lit before the altar of the Lord or before the Tulsi plant. Some people light it at dawn, some at dusk, and some people prefer to light it at dawn and dusk. Either ghee or sesame oil can be used to burn the wick. Vaishnavas (devotees of Lord Vishnu or Krishna) especially light a ghee lamp every day in the month of Kartik to offer their love and devotion to the Lord.
