An Emblem of Auspiciousness and Divine Radiance

This magnificent five-tiered oil lamp, crafted from the finest brass, is more than just a source of light; it is a testament to artistry, tradition, and spiritual significance. Standing tall and elegantly, it embodies the auspicious aura that oil lamps bring into homes and sacred spaces. The intricate detailing and the lustrous sheen of the brass create a piece that is both visually captivating and deeply resonant with cultural heritage.

The Majestic Peacock: A Symbol of Grace and Divinity

Crowning this tiered lamp is a beautifully rendered peacock, a creature deeply woven into the fabric of Indian mythology and symbolism. The peacock is revered in Hinduism as the mount of Lord Kartikeya, the god of war, and is also associated with Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge and arts. Its vibrant plumage and graceful posture are often seen as representing beauty, royalty, and immortality. In this lamp, the peacock's presence elevates the object from a mere utilitarian item to a divine messenger, its radiant form mirroring the spreading light from the lamps below. The five tiers themselves, each capable of holding a flickering flame, suggest a progression of spiritual illumination, reaching towards the divine represented by the celestial bird above.

Illuminating Sacred Spaces and Celebrations

In India, the lighting of oil lamps, known as "diya" or "deepam," is an integral part of religious ceremonies, festivals, and daily rituals. Lamps are lit to dispel darkness, both literal and metaphorical, inviting positive energy, prosperity, and divine blessings. This lamp, with its multiple flames, is designed to create an atmosphere of profound sanctity and warmth. It is ideal for adorning puja rooms, mandaps, temples, or any area dedicated to spiritual practice. During festivals like Diwali, the festival of lights, such lamps are used extensively to symbolize the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. The substantial height of this lamp ensures it becomes a commanding centerpiece, drawing the eye and enhancing the ambiance of any occasion. The warm, golden glow emanating from each of the five lamps will fill your space with an ethereal radiance, creating a truly sacred and inviting environment.

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.
