An aarti diya is a traditional oil lamp used in Hindu religious rituals, particularly during aarti — a form of worship that involves offering light to deities. The diya is typically made of brass, copper, or clay and holds oil or ghee with a cotton wick that is lit to produce a steady flame.During aarti, the diya is often waved in circular motions in front of the deity while devotional songs are sung, symbolizing the removal of darkness (ignorance) and the welcoming of light (knowledge and positivity). The flame is considered sacred, representing divine presence.
