An oil lamp or diya is a traditional lamp used in various cultures, particularly in South Asia, for religious, ceremonial, and practical purposes. In Hinduism, the diya symbolizes the dispelling of darkness and ignorance, and the illumination of knowledge and wisdom. It is commonly used during various religious rituals and festivals. Diyas are especially prominent during Diwali (the Festival of Lights), where they are placed around homes and temples to celebrate the victory of light over darkness and good over evil.
