Where to Place

Place the Varahi Amman Kamakshi lamp in the pooja room or home temple, ideally in the east or north-east (Ishanya) corner, which is considered the most auspicious zone for worship. Keep it on a clean, elevated platform facing east or north so the devotee faces the deity while praying. It can also be placed on a dedicated Devi altar alongside other Shakti idols.

How to Use

Wipe the lamp gently with a soft dry cloth before worship. Fill the bowl with sesame oil or ghee, place a cotton wick, and light it during morning and evening prayers. Offer flowers, kumkum, and incense while reciting Varahi or Kamakshi mantras and stotras. Friday is considered especially auspicious for Devi worship. To maintain the brass shine, occasionally clean with a natural cleaner like tamarind or lemon paste, rinse, and wipe completely dry to prevent tarnishing. Clean the oil bowl after each use.
