Introduction To The Butter Lamp :

Offering a butter lamp is also a deeply spiritual practice. The traditional practice of preparing a butter lamp starts by washing one’s hand, wearing a mask to protect from contaminating the butter lamp through one’s breath, making the wick out of pure cotton, and cleaning the chalices with a clean piece of cloth reserved for this or fresh mosses from the trees, which was commonly used in old times. The entire process is a meditative spiritual practice that engages a person both physically and mentally, provided the person knows and practices it according to the established norms.
