Butter oil lamps, with butter as the burning source, are more common in Mongolia and Tibet and have a long history. Butter is repeatedly extracted from the fat of milk or goat's milk. Butter is solid at room temperature, mostly milky yellow in color and milky white in goat milk. The butter oil lamp has stable light and melodious milk fragrance when burning, and it is one of the indispensable instruments for people to sacrifice to the gods in Mongolia and Tibet.
Recently, in order to save production costs, some manufacturers of religious instruments use oil extracted from plants as "plant butter lamps", which makes people puzzled. Peanut produces peanut oil, soybean produces soybean oil and castor oil produces soybean oil.
The word "ghee" refers to the extraction from milk fat, which has far-reaching historical significance. Plants can only extract vegetable oil. The prices of the two are far from each other. I hope this can attract the attention of consumers, especially Christians, and be recognized.
brief introduction
A butter lamp conveys the infinite piety and prayers of believers, allowing the souls of the living and the dead to communicate. Many foreigners come to temples in Tibet. In addition to all kinds of Buddha statues and dharma statues, what attracts and shocks them most are those butter lamps that are timeless.
Why are there so many butter lamps on all day? Butter lamps play an important role in the lives of Tibetan believers. In addition to temples, you can see thousands of butter lamps flashing glasses, and in Tibetan families, you can also see immortal butter lamps.
