Deep Aarti

The practice of lighting a Deep before an image or idol of God is prevalent in almost every Hindu household all over the world. The Deep or Diya is either a small metal or earthen pot like utensil filled with edible oil like groundnut oil or edible refined oil or Ghee [clarified] butter.

An Aartis or Prarthanas is normally recited in praise of which ever deity one is most attached to.The Diya symbolises light [ blessings of God ] coming into the household. This here is an Aarti in the Marathi language recited in praise of Pandurang which is another name for Vishnu.
