Deepojyoti Namostute

Hindus know that we should light diyas at the pooja area morning and evening. Even Christians light candles.
Let’s talk about Hindu lighting the diyas. Placing one ghee and another oil diya at the altar is very good. It clears the atmosphere by reducing the pollution. This is the scientific reason to light diyas. Spiritually, the flame is Lord Shiva. The heat in the flame is Goddess Shakti. The redness of the flame is Ganapathy. Its light is Lord Kartikeya. Thus, the entire family of Lord Shiva exists in the flame. This is a Shaivite concept. But, all the Hindus – Vaishnavites, Shaivites, Shaktas, Ganapatyas, etc. believe in the significance of diyas.
