Illuminating Tradition

Crafted from gleaming brass, this wall-hanging lamp is more than just a source of light; it's a piece of cultural heritage. The warm, golden hue of the metal radiates a sense of timelessness and sacredness, embodying the rich traditions associated with lamps in Hindu rituals and daily life. The lamp's design is meticulously detailed, showcasing the artisan's dedication to preserving ancient artistic techniques. It's an elegant addition to any space seeking a touch of spiritual ambiance.

The Significance of Light

In Hinduism, light holds profound symbolic significance. It represents knowledge, dispelling the darkness of ignorance and negativity. Lighting a lamp is an act of devotion, an offering to the deities, and a way to invoke auspiciousness and prosperity. This exquisite lamp, designed to hold five wicks, enhances this symbolism. The five wicks may be seen as representing the five elements (earth, water, fire, air, and ether), or the five senses, urging us to illuminate all aspects of our being. Every flicker of the flame is a reminder to seek inner light and live a life of purpose and virtue.

A Reverence for Lakshmi

The use of lamps is closely associated with Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, prosperity, and good fortune. It is believed that Lakshmi visits homes that are well-lit and clean, bringing blessings and abundance. The glow of the brass lamp creates a welcoming atmosphere, inviting positive energy and divine grace into the home. Lighting this lamp, especially during festivals like Diwali, is a traditional practice to honor Lakshmi and seek her blessings for a prosperous future.

The Art of Brass Craftsmanship

The intricate detailing on this lamp is a testament to the skill and artistry of the brass craftsmen who have been perfecting their techniques for generations. Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, is revered for its durability, malleability, and its ability to hold intricate designs. The lamp's form, from the delicately curved arms to the precisely formed wick holders, showcases the artisan's mastery of this ancient craft. This lamp is not just a functional object but a work of art that preserves and celebrates a rich cultural heritage.

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.
