Religious Importance of Light

Hinduism has provided a paramount importance to light. Light in the form of Agni or fire is an important element of among the Panchtatwa, which makes everything sacred. Fire represents our fire, zeal, zest, passion, creativity and motivation.

Hindus cremate a dead body after death, and the deceased body is dedicated to fire to make body merge into the panchtatva again. Light is considered a symbol of auspiciousness, sanctity, spirituality, prosperity, knowledge, an abundance of wealth and health. Metaphorically, darkness is depicted as ignorance, evil and hopelessness.  Darkness makes one directionless, light enlightens your soul and guides you.

Diwali festival is celebrated in new moon night with pitch black darkness, but lightning a lamp kills the darkness, ignorance, evil and bless you with wisdom. Though in modern times, diya have been overshadowed by fancy and glittery Chinese lights, that could not undermine the importance of small earthen lamps.  Lighting a lamp before starting and ceremony is age-old ritual various traditions and cultures around the world in general and India in particular.

Lightened wick in the lamp is not static, it is surrounded by an aura that is transformed to you too as a chakra of positivity and wisdom. The oil or ghee in the lamp represents our vaasanas or negative tendencies and the wick, the ego. When lit by spiritual knowledge, the vaasanas get slowly exhausted and the ego too finally perishes.

The smoke that comes from the lamp when inhaled channels one’s energy centers and increases their bio-magnetic field. That is the reason people used to light the lamp in their house on early morning sunrise and during sunset.

Spiritual Importance of Lightning a Lamp

Spiritually, when we lit a lamp with ghee, the ghee and the flame signifies Goddess Lakshmi who is the Goddess of wealth. The brightness of the flame resembles Goddess Saraswati who bestows us with education and knowledge. The heat from the flame signifies Goddess Durga who burns away and destroys all evil.

Should I use Ghee or Oil to lit a Lamp?

One can lit lamp in oil or ghee. Generally, the use of oil is more prevalent than that of Ghee due to the cost factor, ease of availability. Also, oil lamps kindle longer than ghee lamps.

Ghee(clarified butter) is considered better for lightning lamp rather than oil. Cow’s milk ghee is the best to reap benefits of lighting lamps, as the cow is revered as Saatvik soul. Ghee is more capable to attract and reciprocate the Sattvik or positive vibrations present in the surrounding atmosphere. Ghee disperses its aroma in the air quickly and purifies it off microbes.

Meditating upon a ghee lamp without blinking is a very good exercise that purges eyes and clears our vision. In fact, in Ayurveda, one is advised to gaze at the flame for 2 or 3 minutes to physically strengthen and clean the eyes.
