A Radiant Emblem of Divinity and Grace

Standing tall and commanding, this lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a symbol steeped in rich cultural and mythological significance, designed to bring a sense of peace, prosperity, and divine presence into your life.

The Majestic Peacock: A Symbol of Auspiciousness

In many Eastern traditions, the peacock is revered as a celestial bird, often associated with deities of beauty, knowledge, and power. It is famously the vahana, or mount, of Lord Kartikeya, the Hindu god of war, and is also linked to Goddess Saraswati, the embodiment of wisdom, music, and art. The peacock's iridescent plumage, its proud stance, and its melodious call are all believed to hold auspicious meanings, signifying good fortune, protection, and spiritual awakening. This lamp, with its intricately detailed peacock form, brings these powerful and positive associations into your home, creating an environment of serenity and spiritual upliftment.

Artistry in Brass: A Testament to Timeless Craftsmanship

Forged from high-quality brass, this lamp boasts a warm, lustrous finish that only deepens with age, promising to be a cherished heirloom for generations. The artisan's skill is evident in every curve and detail – from the delicate rendering of the peacock's feathers, fanned out in a display of natural grandeur, to the finely chiseled scales adorning its body. The sturdy base provides stability, while the gracefully curved neck and the regal head of the peacock are crafted with remarkable lifelike detail. The five wick holders are designed to cast a soft, multi-faceted glow, filling your space with a warm and inviting light. This lamp is a testament to the enduring beauty of traditional Indian metalwork, a fusion of artistic excellence and spiritual devotion.

A Centerpiece for Sacred Rituals and Everyday Elegance

Whether used for daily puja, special festivals, or simply as a decorative accent, this peacock lamp serves as a stunning focal point. Its presence can transform a puja room into a sanctuary of devotion, or add a touch of refined elegance to your living room, entryway, or any space requiring a touch of spiritual artistry. Light the five wicks during meditation, prayer, or quiet reflection, and feel the tranquil energy it brings. This lamp is not merely an object of utility but a piece of art that resonates with history, culture, and the pursuit of divine beauty.

A Legacy of Light and Devotion

The tradition of oil lamps, known as "diyas" or "lamps," is ancient and deeply intertwined with religious ceremonies and cultural practices across India. These lamps symbolize the dispelling of darkness, both literal and metaphorical, representing knowledge over ignorance, and hope over despair. The peacock motif further enhances this symbolism, associating the light with divine blessings and auspicious beginnings. This five-wick brass peacock lamp is a continuation of this sacred tradition, offering a beautiful and meaningful way to connect with the divine and to imbue your surroundings with light, beauty, and positive energy.

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.
