The parrot is linked to Kama and is a sign of fertility and expansion. This might be attributed to its green feathers and scarlet beak.  The red beak represents the red dirt before rain, while the green feathers represent the green land after rain. Goddess Meenakshi is also shown with a Parrot on her fingers. The divinity of columnar lamps and hanging lights is combined in this combination of brass columnar lamps with Parrot motifs atop and hanging lamps.


The lamp comes with a sturdy cable and a hook for hanging. Each lamp is made out of a typical oil basin with five wicks that signify the lamp's ability to illuminate the Trilokas (three worlds). This personalized lamp is not only a great addition to a traditional home décor or Puja area, but it can also be used as a ritual object to receive tremendous blessings while offering the warmth of Agni, or the holy fire.

A Beacon of Divine Radiance

This exquisite brass lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a testament to artistry and devotion. Standing tall at 30 inches, its commanding presence makes it a striking centerpiece for any sacred space. The lamp is meticulously crafted from brass, a material revered in many traditions for its purity and auspicious qualities, believed to ward off negative energies and attract prosperity.

The Auspicious Parrot Motif

Crowning the lamp is a beautifully rendered brass parrot, its form captured with incredible detail. In Indian mythology, the parrot holds a special significance. It is often associated with Kamadeva, the god of love and desire, and is depicted as his vehicle. The parrot's vibrant plumage and cheerful demeanor symbolize joy, good fortune, and the ability to communicate divine messages. This intricate parrot, with its inlaid ruby eyes, adds a touch of regal charm and spiritual depth to the lamp, symbolizing the bearer of blessings and the messenger of the divine. The chain descending from the parrot’s beak suspends a delicate brass bell, whose melodious chime is said to announce the presence of deities and enhance the spiritual atmosphere during rituals.

Illuminating Sacred Rituals

The lamp features ten wicks, allowing for a powerful and radiant glow that can fill a room with a warm, inviting luminescence. This multi-wick design is particularly suited for elaborate pujas (worship ceremonies) and festivals, where a multitude of flames symbolize the collective prayers and aspirations of devotees. The practice of lighting lamps, known as "Diya" or "Deepa," is an ancient and integral part of Hindu, Jain, Sikh, and Buddhist traditions. It represents the dispelling of darkness and ignorance, the illumination of knowledge and truth, and the welcoming of divine presence. Placing such a lamp in your home or temple creates an ambiance of sanctity and peace, fostering an environment conducive to meditation, prayer, and spiritual reflection. The craftsmanship is evident in every curve and etching, from the fluted base to the intricately carved stem, showcasing the skill of artisans who have perfected their craft over generations.

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.
Image
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.
