An Offering of Light and Sound

This exquisite brass puja lamp, standing at an impressive 11 inches tall, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India. Each lamp is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans, ensuring a unique piece that embodies tradition and devotion. The lustrous brass is shaped into a functional and beautiful vessel, designed to hold butter or ghee for the sacred flame, a practice deeply rooted in Hindu rituals. The lamp's design is further enhanced by the delicate tinkling bells that adorn its perimeter, adding an auditory dimension to its visual splendor.

Echoes of Divine Presence

The use of lamps in puja, or worship, is a timeless tradition, symbolizing the dispelling of darkness and ignorance with the light of knowledge and spiritual awareness. In Hindu mythology, the act of lighting a lamp is often associated with invoking divine blessings and creating an auspicious atmosphere. The Akhanda Deepa, an unbroken lamp, is considered a powerful symbol of unending devotion and the omnipresence of the divine. The gentle chiming of the bells can be seen as a call to the deities, a melodious invitation to partake in the offerings. Many traditions believe that the sound of bells during worship can ward off negative energies and purify the surroundings, creating a sacred space conducive to meditation and prayer.

A Symphony of Craftsmanship

The detailed artistry of this lamp is evident in every aspect of its creation. The broad, shallow dish at the top is perfectly formed to hold the flame, while the central stem provides elegant elevation. The true charm, however, lies in the series of small, resonant bells suspended around the rim. These bells, crafted with the same care as the lamp itself, are designed to create a gentle, melodic sound, adding a sensory layer to your spiritual practice. The base of the lamp features intricate etched patterns, reminiscent of ancient Indian motifs, adding a touch of regal elegance. This lamp is not merely an object of utility but a work of art, a tangible connection to centuries of devotional practices and artisanal excellence. Its presence in your home will undoubtedly enhance the sanctity of your prayer space and bring a touch of India's soul into your daily life.

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.
