Auspicious Illumination

This magnificent brass lamp is more than just a source of light; it is a conduit for divine blessings, prosperity, and auspicious beginnings. Expertly crafted, it features representations of the Ashta Lakshmi, the eight forms of Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth and good fortune, along with Ganesha, the remover of obstacles, at its center. The lamp is meticulously constructed from brass, showcasing the radiant luster and enduring quality of the metal. Every aspect of this piece, from the intricately carved figures to the smooth, polished surfaces, has been designed to capture the essence of devotion.

The Eightfold Blessings

The Ashta Lakshmi represent the eight different manifestations of Lakshmi, each bestowing a unique form of wealth and well-being. These forms include: * *Adi Lakshmi*: Representing the primeval form of the goddess. * *Dhanya Lakshmi*: The bestower of agricultural wealth and abundance. * *Dhairya Lakshmi*: Granting courage, strength, and resilience. * *Gaja Lakshmi*: Symbolizing regal power and prosperity, often depicted with elephants. * *Santana Lakshmi*: Bestowing progeny, family, and lineage. * *Vijaya Lakshmi*: Granting victory, success, and triumph. * *Vidya Lakshmi*: Bestowing knowledge, wisdom, and learning. * *Dhana Lakshmi*: The source of monetary wealth and prosperity. The presence of all eight forms in one lamp amplifies the blessings and brings a holistic sense of well-being.

Ganesha: The Dispeller of Obstacles

Ganesha is revered as the remover of obstacles, the patron of arts and sciences, and the deva of intellect and wisdom. He is invoked at the beginning of every endeavor to ensure success and smooth progress. His placement at the heart of the Ashta Lakshmi lamp underscores the importance of removing obstacles and creating a clear path towards the attainment of wealth and prosperity. Together, the combined presence of the Ashta Lakshmi and Ganesha makes this lamp a powerful emblem of good fortune and divine grace.

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.
