Hearing about continuous burning of a lamp or we can simply say Akhand Deep is very common. The Devotes worship the Godess with Akhand jyot and take care of it for nine days with faith to get good results. The material required to lite the lamp are, 1 Lamp, Oil, A small plate, Cotton wicks.
Select a safe place in the house, prefer temple room. For carpeted floors, one should use PVC matt or similar to prevent the lamp from falling on the floor. Take care if there are children/pets in the house. Place the brass lamp on a plate. Take 2 wicks and place it in the lamp keeping 5mm wick projecting out of the lamp. Ensure that the wick does not face the South direction.
