LIT A LAMP-BRIGHTEN YOUR LIFE.

Lit a LAMP-BRIGHTEN YOUR LIFE
Lit a lamp daily drive the devil out and invite 8 kinds of all conceivable wealth to you and your home
LIGHT is the first and foremost manifestation of the ALMIGHTY. In INDIA, no function starts without lighting a lamp first. Lighting a lamp is like an invitation to the ALMIGHTY to come and bless you. GOD follows light and light follows GOD. Before you start to say your prayer, lit a lamp, pray the LIGHT FIRST and then do your choice prayer. Lit a lamp daily to drive away the devil in you and around you. This will drive out your ignorance, fear, misery, suffering. Light drives out the darkness and brings you peace prosperity and well-being. Light will help you realize the truth. For example in the darkness, something that comes across your feet frightens that it may be a snake. Come light you will realize that you have mistaken a rope for a snake and that your fear disappears.
Hindu way of life accords great significance and importance to DEEPARADHANA or lighting a lamp. It lays down clear procedures to be followed. It is not the electric lamps that are used in the sanctum sanctorum of HINDU temples in India. They are the natural oils like sesame seed oil, castor oil, cow ghee etc. The lamp holders must not be made of stainless steel or steel. They can be made of earthen mud, silver, gold or brass. So never use a stainless steel lamp holder.
First let us analyze the benefits that accrue by using different oils for lighting lamps:
Cows ghee
Ensures radiance and heavenly bliss
Ghee
Ensures prosperity health and happiness
Gingely oil or sesame oil
