Since the light of a ghee lamp is believed to bring in prosperity, knowledge and wisdom, it is a customary rule in India to start all the auspicious religious events or social functions by lighting the lamp. By doing so it is believed that we invite the divine to come and bless us.
In Hindu temples an elaborate “Aarti” prayer ceremony is performed with 5 diyas burning at once, and waved gently in a circular motion- in a clockwise manner, in front of the picture or statue of a deity. This aarti ritual literally purifies the atmospheric air. It symbolizes our dedication and oneness with the Lord.
Rose water wick is one of the easiest trick to
attract abundance by pleasing goddess Lakshmi. Take a white cloth immersed in
rose water, dry it, and use the same to create a wick. By using this wick for
lightening diyas on a regular basis, you will not only attract Goddess Lakshmi
but also attract peace in life. The ghee and the flame signifies Goddess
Lakshmi who blesses us with wealth, the brightness of the flame resemble
Goddess Saraswati who blesses us with education and knowledge and the heat from
the flame signifies Goddess Durga who burns away and destroys all evil.
