DIYA

Traditional Indian clay lamps, known as diya, also called diyo, deepak, diva, panati, dipa, dipaka, saki, thaomi, agalvilakku, deepam, dipa, hanate, thirivilakku,and divli, are oil lamps made from clay or mud with a cotton wick. They are a significant part of Indian culture, used for decoration and religious rituals, especially during festivals like Diwali and Karthigai. A diya's significance is that it represents the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. Lighting a diya is a spiritual act that dispels negativity, invites divine blessings and prosperity, and symbolises purity. It also has a deeper meaning, such as the flame representing the upward journey of the soul and the wick and oil symbolizing the burning away of human vices.
