Sivaalaya
Deepam |
LDSFT
has a plan to start a project on Sivaalya deepam in Tamil Nadu temples. This subject
has been initiated by Sri. Lakshmi Narayanan, an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva
and a member of LDSFT Team. He has renovated several Siva temples, His main aim
is to light an oil lamp in each Siva temple where no light exists. In consultation
with him, LDSFT has come out with several programmes on lights in Siva temples.
Following is the check list of activities related with oil lamps in Siva temples,
as planned by LDSFT. More ideas are welcome from members and public.
|
1.
Identify the Siva temples where no lights are burning. Give to nearby Pandarams,
neighbours lamp, thiri and oil request them to light a lamp in morning and another
at evenings. 2. A design to stock oil in a tank on top, connect to an oil lamps,
so that light is on for 24 hours. 3. Lighting 108 oil lamps in Siva temples,
mainly in front of lord Siva so that that brightness gives a good lighting instead
of electric bulbs. During festive days like Mada Sivarathri these 108 lamps can
be practiced. 4. Once a year one lakh oil lamps can be lighted in Siva temples.
It generates income for temples, and will increase some Siva temples' services
and attendance. 5. In North East of a sannadhi, no darkness be allowed and
an oil lamp has to be placed. 6. R&D on design of clay lamps, to prevent
spillage of oils thus spoiling the sannadhis with thick coating. 7. R&D
on oils for lamps, in the existing types of 5 or 7 lamp oils. Highly refined oils
can prevent black soots and smoke, but cost is the consideration. 8. Any more
suggestions on above line. 9. Devotess need to be educated on good lamp practices
in shiva temples. 10. Educate devotees' usage of Lotus Stem Thiri and banana
Stem thiri etc which are auspicious.
