Lâmpada de óleo — História e Análise

O fogo, assim como a água, desempenha um papel importante nos rituais. Lâmpadas de óleo são frequentemente suspensas diante da efígie de um deus, tanto em casa quanto em um templo. Uma parte essencial de uma cerimônia de templo hindu (puja) é a adoração ao deus movendo uma lâmpada diante de sua imagem.

Na antiga Índia, as lâmpadas eram os presentes mais populares para os templos, juntamente com vacas para fornecer manteiga clarificada (o combustível).
