An Akhand Diya is an unextinguished, eternal flame lamp used in Hinduism for continuous worship and spiritual ambiance, especially during festivals like Diwali and Navratri, symbolizing the divine presence, wisdom over ignorance, and prosperity. It typically features a brass bowl to hold oil and a wick, protected by a durable glass dome or chimney, such as one made from borosilicate glass, to ensure the flame burns continuously without being extinguished by wind or drafts. An akhand diya's mechanism utilizes a screw-based wick-lifting system within a glass-covered brass vessel to maintain an uninterrupted flame for extended periods, often up to 96 hours, by allowing users to safely adjust the wick from the outside, providing a consistent and steady glow for religious ceremonies without needing to touch the flame or oil directly.
