This brass Diya is also known as an Aatma Diya since it is designed like a lotus, which denotes wisdom and spirituality. During Pujas, the Aatma Diya, a kind of lamp with a center wick in the shape of a nozzle, is a typical ceremonial object. These Aatma Diyas are often designed like other spiritual objects. This lamp specifically comes with an elongated stand suggesting the stem of the lotus flower. It allows the devotee to hold the lamp conveniently. The connection between the Aatma Diya and the lotus suggests that while the Aatma burns in the fire of meditation, it develops wisdom and blossoms like a lovely flower.

An Emblem of Purity and Enlightenment

This exquisite lamp, crafted from lustrous brass, is more than just a source of light; it is a symbol deeply rooted in spiritual traditions and cultural significance. The design, inspired by the sacred lotus flower, imbues this piece with profound meaning. In many Asian cultures, particularly Hinduism and Buddhism, the lotus is revered as a symbol of purity, enlightenment, rebirth, and divine beauty. It represents the ability of the soul to rise above worldly attachments and distractions, much like the lotus blossom emerges pristine from muddy waters. Its petals, elegantly unfurling, are believed to represent the unfolding of consciousness and spiritual awareness.

A Sacred Glow for Your Rituals

This lamp is perfectly suited for use in pooja rooms, meditation spaces, or any area where you seek to cultivate a serene and divine atmosphere. The gentle glow emanating from the brass lamp can aid in creating a tranquil environment conducive to prayer, meditation, and introspection. The stand elevates the lamp, allowing the light to cast a comforting and sacred radiance throughout your space. As light dispels darkness, this lamp symbolizes the triumph of knowledge over ignorance, and the presence of the divine illuminating our lives. The use of brass, a metal associated with prosperity and auspiciousness, further enhances the sacred qualities of this lamp, making it a cherished addition to any spiritual practice.

Craftsmanship and Cultural Resonance

The intricate design of this lamp reflects a rich heritage of Indian craftsmanship. Each petal is carefully shaped, evoking the natural beauty of the lotus. Brass has been a favored material for religious artifacts for centuries due to its durability, its perceived purity, and its ability to hold a divine essence. In ancient texts and rituals, brass lamps are often mentioned as offerings to deities, believed to please them and attract blessings. The act of lighting a lamp in a temple or home is a gesture of devotion, often accompanied by prayers and mantras, invoking auspiciousness and warding off negativity. This lamp serves as a tangible connection to these ancient practices, allowing you to bring a piece of that sacred tradition into your own home. Its presence can be a constant reminder of the pursuit of spiritual growth and the beauty that can be found in simplicity and devotion.

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.
