Description
Oil lamps at a buddhist temple.
Offering of lighted lamps to the Buddha, pagoda, and temple has a long history. In Buddhism one of the Ten Kinds of Offerings and an essential form of offering, lighting a lamp symbolises brightness and wisdom.

On many occasions when explaining the Dharma, the Buddha also talked about stories and the merits of lighting lamps as offerings to the Buddha
