A Symphony of Brass and Starlight

The warm, lustrous sheen of brass speaks of enduring quality and timeless elegance. Brass has long been revered in spiritual practices for its purity and auspicious properties. It is believed to enhance positive energies and ward off negativity, making it the ideal material for objects used in worship. The delicate star perforations allow the light to escape in captivating patterns, reminiscent of the twinkling stars in a clear night sky, a constant reminder of the divine presence that surrounds us. This lamp serves as a miniature representation of the heavens brought down to earth, inviting celestial blessings into your home. ––––––––––––––––––––

Echoes of Ancient Rituals

In Hindu traditions, the lamp, or *diya*, is an indispensable element of puja, the act of worship. The flame symbolizes knowledge, dispelling the darkness of ignorance and illuminating the path to spiritual enlightenment. The act of lighting the lamp is an offering to the deities, a gesture of gratitude and a plea for divine grace. This particular lamp, with its star motifs, evokes the celestial narratives woven into the fabric of Indian mythology. Stars are often associated with deities like Surya (the sun god) and Chandra (the moon god), and are considered auspicious, guiding travelers and illuminating destinies. The lamp can be seen as a vessel holding the very essence of starlight, a miniature representation of the cosmic order. It is a perfect addition to any ritualistic setting, from daily prayers to special festivals, adding an aura of sanctity and beauty. ––––––––––––––––––––

A Cherished Heirloom

This brass lamp is not merely a functional item; it is a piece of art that can be passed down through generations, carrying with it stories, memories, and blessings. Its compact size makes it versatile, fitting beautifully on any shelf, table, or mandir. The craftsmanship ensures its durability, while its aesthetic appeal enriches any space it graces. Light it during prayer, meditation, or simply as a source of ambient glow, and feel the tranquil energy it brings. Let the shimmering light and the celestial patterns remind you of the divine spark within and the boundless universe that holds us all.

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.
