Origin & Tradition of Lighting Deepams:
The practice of lighting a copper diya or oil lamp traces its roots to ancient Hindu customs. For centuries, these lamps have been central to spiritual rituals, serving as a beacon of light over darkness. The tradition dates back to the Vedic age, where it was seen as an offering to the divine. The flame symbolizes the triumph of knowledge over ignorance and purity over impurity. Lighting a copper lamp is believed to invite the divine presence into the home and purify the surroundings with positive energy.
• The copper deepam is especially revered in South India, where lighting a copper diya is an essential part of daily worship and festive celebrations. In temples, these lamps are traditionally lit during various holy events, drawing the divine blessings of the gods. During key festivals like Diwali, Karthigai Deepam, and Navaratri, copper lamps are often placed in temples and homes to honor the deities and promote spiritual well-being.
• Usage:
To use the copper deepam, fill the lamp's container with oil, preferably ghee or sesame oil, and insert a cotton wick. Light the wick and place the copper lamp in your pooja room or any sacred space. The copper diya is most effective when lit during early morning and evening prayers, helping to attract blessings from the divine. Its warm, flickering glow creates a tranquil atmosphere that is perfect for prayer, meditation, and the chanting of mantras.
• Care & Maintenance:
To preserve the beauty of your copper deepam, it’s important to clean it regularly. After each use, wipe it with a soft cloth to maintain its shine. For deep cleaning, a mixture of vinegar and water works well to remove oil marks. Always store your copper lamp in a dry and cool place when not in use to prevent tarnishing. Keeping it covered when not in use protects it from dust and moisture, ensuring its longevity.
• The copper lamp holds special significance during several Hindu festivals. It is most commonly used during Diwali to celebrate the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. Lighting a copper diya during these occasions is believed to bring prosperity, happiness, and divine blessings. During festivals like Karthigai Deepam and Navaratri, multiple copper deepams are lit to honor the gods, purify the surroundings, and bring about a sense of spiritual renewal.
