The month of October unfolds the happiness and zest of festival celebration across India. With Diwali round the corners, our Indian folks are busy preparing for their grand event – the festival of lights. Usually recognised by lighting of lamps and bursting of crackers, Diwali is the festival of unlimited fun, sharing love and warmth.
Recently, with the changing trends, this beautiful festival is witnessing an emphasis on the firework. The enthusiasm of bursting crackers among adults and kids are alike, adding to the increasing environmental pollution.
Let us not associate this fabulous festival by bursting of crackers alone. Beyond crackers, lies many wonderful things about Diwali! The sparkling earthen lamps says it all! The flickering diyas (earthen lamps) all around the home is not just a mesmerising view, but it also has scientific significance.
The Indian tradition of lighting ghee lamps and the science behind it
Undoubtedly, the ghee lamps create a pleasant, relaxing ambience with their spectacular view. Also, they have hidden science which most of us are not aware of. The light radiating from the diyas produce electromagnetic force which energisethe molecules present in the air. These energised molecules when come in contact with our skin, penetrates deep into it and activates the nerves. Hence, we feel calm, relaxed and energised when surrounded by ghee diyas all around. It is also found that these electromagnetic forces settle on the skin and can sustain there for several hours, helping to keep diseases at bay. With so many benefits of the earthen lamps, why not light them quite often?
