Introduction of Butter Lamp Set

The entire process of offering a butter lamp is a deeply spiritual practice. Traditionally, preparing a butter lamp begins with washing one’s hands and wearing a mask to prevent contamination from one's breath. A wick is made from pure cotton, and the chalices are cleaned with a cloth reserved for this purpose or with fresh mosses from trees, as was common in ancient times. This whole process is a meditative spiritual practice that engages a person physically and mentally, provided they know and follow the norms.
