The entire composition is set within an ornate prabhavali (flame arch) with intricate floral filigree border and a decorative finial on top. The functional diya bowl with wick spout sits prominently in the centre, resting on a beautifully detailed hexagonal / star-shaped stepped base with lotus petal detailing and a distinctive red enamel accent ring.

Spiritual Significance
Gajalakshmi is one of the eight principal forms of Goddess Lakshmi (Ashtalakshmi) — the goddess of wealth, prosperity, abundance, and divine grace. In the Gajalakshmi form, Goddess Lakshmi is flanked by two royal elephants (Gaja) who pour sacred water from their raised trunks over her — an act of divine coronation (abhishekam) that represents the bestowal of royal sovereignty, abundance, and the blessings of the divine upon the devotee. The two elephants represent Jaya and Vijaya — the divine gatekeepers of Vaikunta — and symbolise strength, royal power, and the protection of divine wealth. The lotus seat (padmasana) on which Goddess Lakshmi sits represents purity, spiritual awakening, and the blossoming of divine consciousness. The prabhavali (flame arch) represents the divine radiance (tejas) and the sacred aura of the goddess. The diya (deepam / vilakku) represents the dispelling of ignorance by the light of divine knowledge (jnana deepam). The star-shaped base with lotus petal detailing represents the multi-directional radiance of divine grace. This form of Gajalakshmi is especially worshipped in Tamil Nadu and South India as Kamakshi Vilakku — a sacred lamp with the goddess’s image — lit during Diwali, Navratri, Varalakshmi Vratam, Karthigai Deepam, and Friday pooja.

How to Use as a Diya / Vilakku
Fill the diya bowl with pure ghee or sesame oil. Place a cotton wick in the wick spout. Light the wick during morning and evening pooja, on Fridays (Lakshmi pooja day), during Varalakshmi Vratam, Diwali, Karthigai Deepam, and Navratri. The warm golden light of the brass diya illuminated beneath the Gajalakshmi prabhavali creates an extraordinarily beautiful and sacred atmosphere. Offer red flowers, lotus flowers, turmeric, kumkum, and yellow sweets to Goddess Lakshmi during pooja.
Vastu & Placement Guidelines
Place this Gajalakshmi Diya in the North-East (Ishan) corner or East of your home temple or pooja room for maximum auspiciousness. The North direction is especially auspicious for Lakshmi worship (the direction of Kubera, the god of wealth). Light the diya every Friday and on all major Lakshmi festivals. This piece also makes a stunning centrepiece on a home temple altar, living room mantelpiece, or pooja room entrance.

- Varalakshmi Vratam and Navratri celebrations
- Karthigai Deepam — the festival of sacred lamps

Care & Maintenance
After use as a diya, allow the lamp to cool completely before cleaning. Wipe the bowl with a soft cloth to remove oil residue. For periodic deep cleaning of the prabhavali, base, and lotus detailing, use a tamarind or lemon juice solution with a very soft brush to restore the brass lustre. Rinse with clean water and dry immediately and thoroughly. Handle the red enamel accent ring with care — avoid abrasive materials on the enamel surface. Avoid harsh chemicals.
