Whether it is Navaratri with an offering of Jyoti to the goddess or Diwali with a row of Diyas, a glowing atmosphere suggests festivity more than anything else. For lighting up your festive season, we have curated a list of 10 lamps, crafted by Indian artists and craftsmen from all over the country, representing the best of every region. The list goes from simple stand-alone diya at the altar to magnificent wall pieces with wicks to give a regal look to any space, offering you a variety of options to brighten up your home, as the time of celebrations comes close. So let us enter a world of lights- 1. Simple Lamps for the Puja Ghar Made with pure brass, bronze, and copper, a simple lamp is burnt in Hindu households, in rituals of every day, and forms a part of the daily routines. It is often placed on the chowki or pedestal on which the deity is housed, lit during morning and evening Puja. A beautifully made Deepak is a symbol of the perfection of one’s devotion to God, and the festivities are an ideal time to add a new ritual lamp to your place of worship. 2. Hand-held Aarti Diya Explore our developer-friendly HTML to PDF API Printed using PDFCrowd HTML to PDF

2. Also, a part of the ritual routine, the hand-held aarti or simply aarti is the portable lamp, with one or many wicks, used to perform the customary offering of light to the deity. Hymns are sung along with the playing of Shankha (Conch Shell) and Ghanti (Bell), as the lamp moves in front of the icon of the god or goddess, slowly lighting up the image and allowing the devotee to perform Darshana- the act of seeing and meditating upon the divine. Since the festivals involve a number of rituals to be conducted, you can take a look at hand-held aartis to elevate your Puja experience. 3. Peacock or Anam Lamp Originating in the temples of South India, the Annam lamp symbolizes divinity. It is characterized by the mythical Anam bird or “peacock” perched on the finial. The Anam lamp is no longer limited to the ritual space but has become a part of festive, celebratory occasions around the world. It is lit before important ceremonies to remember the light of wisdom and creativity. An Anam lamp can be added to the center of any space to create a statement decor or a pair of Anam lamps can be placed on the sides of the door, to welcome the festivities in your home. 4. Lakshmi Deepa Explore our developer-friendly HTML to PDF API Printed using PDFCrowd HTML to PDF

3. An ancient votive offering to the goddess Lakshmi, a Lakshmi Deepa was earlier made with terracotta and then in metal, with simple icons of the goddess. Based on the earlier lamps, Ashtalakshmi Deepa and Gajalakshmi Deepa are some of the most famous lamps, with elaborate ornamental, made in pure brass and other ritually sacred materials. The practice of offering the goddess a lamp or financing the lamps of a temple (arranging the cotton wicks, and oil and paying the temple priest in charge of lighting the lamps) for a certain period of time before or after the fulfillment of a wish, is an ancient ritual in Hinduism and Buddhism, which is a symbol of devotion. A Lakshmi Deepa in your space can be placed in the Puja ghar as the primary diya, creating a lustrous environment, and adding to the spiritual aura of the space. 5. Deepalakshmi Lamps Pavai Vikkau or lady lamp, often linked with goddess Lakshmi in reality represents the devotee (often an elite woman) or the temple women offering devotional light to the sanctum deity in South Indian temples. The mention of Deepalakshmi goes back to the 3rd century BC when the Tamil text Silapadikaram describes “life-sized lady lamps lighting up the street of the temple town”.
