A copper lota chombu / brass kalash / jaladhari is a traditional Indian container, often used in Hindu rituals and ceremonies to hold pooja or Abhishekam water.
The Kalash is commonly known as Purna Kalasha, Purna-Kumbha, and Purna Ghata. According to the Rig Veda, the Purna Kalash represents abundance and a life source. Devotees fill the Kalash with holy water and place a coconut on top of it during Pujas. The head of the coconut faces the sky, and they keep mango leaves, sometimes betel vines, dipped in the water. Some might fill the vessel with coins, gems, gold, or grains as well. It is believed that the water and other elements in the Kalash symbolize the prosperity of our Earth, including vegetation and minerals.

The Sacred Origin and Use of the Lota:
The Lota has been an integral part of Hindu rituals for centuries, holding immense significance in Vedic customs. In ancient times, sages and seers carried a Sombu filled with sacred water during their spiritual practices, believing it to contain divine energy. The Kalash is often mentioned in scriptures as a symbol of Goddess Lakshmi, representing prosperity, purity, and divine blessings.
During rituals, a Kalasam is traditionally filled with holy water, decorated with mango leaves, and topped with a coconut to signify divine presence. Placed on altars and in temples, the Lota absorbs positive vibrations and enhances the spiritual atmosphere of the surroundings. According to sacred texts, offering water from the Sombu during prayers cleanses negativity, attracts divine blessings, and purifies the devotee’s heart.
The Kalash is widely used in religious ceremonies and weddings to invoke celestial energies, ensuring prosperity and harmony. By incorporating this sacred Kalasam into daily worship, devotees can align themselves with divine vibrations, fostering peace, positivity, and spiritual growth.
