Diwali Candles

Saturday, September 24th, 2011

Known as the Festival of Lights, candles and diyas are used during the festival to signify supernatural brightness which is believed to bring joy with the hope of finding light in darkness, achieving knowledge where there is ignorance and spreading love amongst hatred. In Hinduism light signifies all the goodness that exists, therefore Diwali candles are burned throughout the day and into the night to ward off darkness and evil. Homes are traditionally filled with candles and lights when celebrating Diwali; some homes may use diyas and oil lamps whilst others may use decorated light candles.

There are two accounts to the story behind the Festival of Lights; in North India candles were lit to welcome back holy Lord Rama’s return after a twelve year exile. In South India Goddess Durga’s triumph over the demon Narakasura, good over evil, brought back the light of knowledge and truth to mankind. To help you celebrate Diwali TheIncenseStore.com has a huge collection of Diwali candles, holders and lamps to adorn your home, each with their own style and colours so you will always find the perfect candles to light up your home.

How to Use Diwali Diyas

Tuesday, September 6th, 2011

Diwali or Deepavali is known as the festival of lights and is celebrated as a one-day festival in Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism. Considered one of the most important festivals of the year, Hindus celebrate Diwali with performances of traditional activities together with family in their homes. It is a celebration of the victory of good over evil, brightness over darkness and truth over falsity and diyas are lit on this night to symbolise the supremacy and consequence of brightness over darkness. A diva or deepak is an oil lamp usually made from clay and is used for pujan and decoration purposes. Here at TheIncenseStore.com we have a huge selection of Diwali divas ranging from different sizes and colours to simple or fancy designs. This article will explain how to use Diwali diyas in your celebrations as well as show you to some of the divas available.

A shining light from a diva in every corner is meant to bring hope and prosperity for all mankind. The diva is a traditional alternative to candles and should be just large enough to fit in the palm of your hand. The lamp is fuelled with ghee, a clarified butter or oil, which is placed inside the diva and a wick lies freely on the neck of the diva lamp soaked in the ghee in order to easily ignite. The diva should be lit during your ritual worship in the days of Diwali; this process is known as ‘aarti’ and is an act of paying homage to the gods and goddesses. A diva should be placed in each corner of the home while having the windows open to invoke the presence of the deity.

Diwali Diyas with Wax

Quick and easy, these Diwali divas contain wax and a wick meaning they can be lit straight away for your joyous celebration. For a beautiful and elegant diva why not try our gold leaf shaped Diwali diva decorated with gold beads and coloured gems for a perfect finish. This bright and festive diva will look great anywhere in the home and is great value for money as it comes with two separate divas.
