An Emblem of Celestial Beauty and Divine Light

This exquisite hanging lamp, crafted from radiant brass, is more than just a source of illumination; it is a testament to artistic mastery and a carrier of deep cultural significance. Suspended by a sturdy brass chain, it features a gracefully rendered peacock, its form meticulously detailed to capture the essence of this revered bird. The peacock, in Indian mythology and culture, is a symbol of royalty, beauty, and divinity. It is often associated with the gods, particularly Lord Krishna, who is depicted with a peacock feather adorning his crown, signifying his cosmic and aesthetic grandeur. The peacock's magnificent plumage is believed to hold the essence of the heavens, and its presence is considered auspicious.

Crafted for Auspicious Occasions and Enduring Grace

The lamp itself, a classic *diya* or oil lamp, is designed to hold a flickering flame, traditionally fueled by ghee or oil and a cotton wick. This act of lighting a lamp is a fundamental ritual in Hinduism, symbolizing the dispelling of darkness and ignorance, and the welcoming of light, knowledge, and prosperity. This particular lamp, with its peacock motif, elevates this sacred practice. The intricate detailing on the peacock, from its crested head to its fanned tail, showcases the skill of the artisan. The brass material itself, known for its durability and warm, lustrous glow, has been favored for centuries in the creation of religious artifacts and decorative pieces. It is believed that brass possesses purifying qualities, enhancing the spiritual efficacy of the items it forms.

A Touch of Divinity for Your Abode

The thirty-inch length of this hanging lamp allows it to be strategically placed in any sacred space or as a statement piece in your home. Imagine it casting a gentle, warm light in your puja room, illuminating the deities and creating an atmosphere of serenity and devotion. It can also be a stunning addition to your living space, a balcony, or entryway, bringing with it an aura of timeless elegance and a connection to ancient traditions. The peacock's association with rebirth and immortality further imbues this lamp with a positive and life-affirming energy. As the flame dances within the bowl, it reflects the multifaceted beauty of the peacock and the enduring light of spiritual wisdom. This brass hanging lamp is not merely an object of decor; it is an heirloom in the making, a piece that carries stories, blessings, and the divine grace of the peacock.

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.
