The light of the butter lamp symbolizes the wisdom of the awakenened mind, which dispels the darkness of delusion and mental obscurations. Butter lamps are placed on one's shrine and traditionally filled with butter or other oils, such as coconut or canola, but one may also use a tealight candle. We offer butter lamps every day at Chagdud Gonpa Rigdzin Ling, and on special holy days many sangha members sponsor these for family, friends, or pets who are suffering, facing difficulties, or have died, dedicating the merit for them.
If you would like to sponsor such an offering, call Chagdud Gonpa Foundation at (530) 623-2714.
