The butter lamp is traditionally kept lit day and night, however your local fire station may frown on this. Still, the butter lamp can be placed on the altar as a beautiful symbolic gesture of homage to the radiance of mind while safer means of illumination, such as 1 or 2 small LED lamps, are added. Some place a small devotional candle inside the butter lamp, rather than the traditional filling of ghee or melted butter and a wick. Some prepare the butter lamp before entering their teacher’s presence, and offer it to him or her for lighting to symbolically request the awakening of one’s mind. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImported direct from the Himalayas, different models are available for you to choose the one proper to your shrine, in harmony with your offering bowls. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eComplete your shrine with an \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/offering-bowls\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eoffering bowl set\u003c\/a\u003e.

Growing along marshy riverbanks, it is held sacred by yogis due its exceptional protective and mystical properties conducive to meditation. Essential to all Hindu and Buddhist ritual practices and initiations for countless millennium, it was the first offering made to Shakyamuni Buddha by Sottiya the Grass-cutter so that the Buddha could make his grass meditation mat under the Bodhi Tree.

The kusha grass, imported from the Himalayas, is mingled with an extraordinary golden grass native to a nearly inaccessible region of central Brazil. Why is the golden grass so remarkable? When ordinary seeds are planted in this isolated expanse golden grass is produced, whereas everywhere else such seeds simply yield ordinary grass. This symbolizes the transformative attributes of Dharma practice whereby the ordinary becomes sanctified and extraordinary.
