The Performance Of Lamp Pooja
The great divine saint vallalar has seen the God in the form of a light, i.e., Jyothi. Hence the nayanmars and alwars also call the god who is spread in the nook and corner of the world as the Jyothiyan. Hence the worship of holy lamp or Jyothi in our ancient religion of Hindu is having a unique place. Performance of yaja by lighting the fire is also another kind of worship of holy lamp or Jyothi. Great scholars and holy devotees have praised the worship of holy lamp or Jyothi as the light of wisdom is lighted to clear the darkness of innocence.
The lighting of a light during the evenings in the homes of Hindu people is a important event. A light is involved in the life of a Hindu from the stage of the birth to the stage of the death. Hence a woman who comes to a home like a daughter in law is called as the person came for lighting the lamp and is praised as the Grahalakshmi. Hence a woman is praised as the creator of the next generation. Hence she is the lamp of the home and she brings light or progress to the life by removing the stagnation or the darkness of the family.
There will be a philosophy behind the products and ingredients being used in all the customs and performances being followed in the Hindu religion. We have seen above, about the background of the custom of lighting a lamp. There is also a meaningful background in using the Kuthuvilakku in the hindu customs. The appearance of the bottom of the lamp is like a lotus flower in a broad and round shape is the resemblance of the creator God Brahmha Deva who is sitting in the lotus flower which has grown from the belly of the Lord Narayana lying upon the snake bed in the holy milky ocean.
The top portion of the light will be like the kumba of a kalasa. This remarks the philosophy of Sadasiva who is having a shape and also a shapeless. The oil or ghee poured in the lamp portion can stand as a resemblance of the Nada Brahma which is spread all over the world. The white color cotton lid resembles the mother Saraswathi, the light blinking in the edge of the lid resembles the wisdom, the power of light resembles the Maha Lakshmi, and the heat of the light resembles the Parasakthi, the consort of the Lord Rudra.
Apart from the above all specialties, the artistic sculpture shapes resemble the Lord Ganesha, Lord Muruga, Rama, Krishna, etc. It can be shortly told that all the gods and goddesses remain in philosophical shape in the Kuthu Vilakku like all the gods and goddesses are present inside the holy cow, Kamadhenu.
Likewise the Astrological epics also advise us that, to get the blessings of the Goddess Mahalakshmi and also a hate by life, we shall use the ghee as the ingredient to light the lamp, the inauspicious miseries of the life will disappear and we can get the blessings of Lord Narayan by lighting the lamp with gingelly oil, by using the wild olive oil we can get the grace of the Rudra angels, by using the coconut oil, we can get the blessings of Lord Ganesha, the usage of margosa oil we can get good health.
There are various benefits in the lamp being used to light. All miseries will disappear by using the lamp made with mud. We can get the graceful blessings of Goddess Lakshmi, by using the lamp made with silver. The angels will be impressed by using the lamp made with five types of metals, we can get a healthy life by using the lamp with bronze, the malicious effects of Saturn will disappear by using the lamp with iron, we can be wealthy by lighting the lamp’s five faces, the cow herds will grow by lighting the four faces, we can be blessed with children by lighting the three faces of the lamp, by lighting the two faces of the lamp the integration in the family will grow by forgetting all problems, by lighting the single face equal benefits can be attained.
Generally we have seen five faces in the Kuthuvilakku lamp. The five faces symbolize the five characters of the human. The meaning of this is that the human will get good place in the earth during his life and good place in the heaven after his life if he follows these five good principles such as Love, Knowledge, Stiffness, Steadiness, Patience, etc.
