D

ear KK, 

 

Thank you for highlighting the meaning of DEEPAM.. We Muslims believe in ONE GOD(ALLAH) and we believe ALLAH created all that exists including mankind, animals, jinns and natural universe and associating partners with ALLAH is a Great Sin... To prove that ALLAH has sent many messengers to this earth, the prophets of God conveyed the message of oneness of God and we should worship him alone and not take created things as God. Fire is a creation of God, When we ask or worship the Fire. We ourselves are putting in more danger of going far away from God. Quran is the book which is given to Prophet Muhammad pbuh, the last and final messenger of ALLAH. Quran is still the same without any concoction or addition from that time. We should read the QURAN (quranproject website for better understanding) to undestand and PONDER on its Verses. If U are honest YOU will see the guidance from ALLAH... Lord of the universe. I wish YOu worship NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI (The god that has no image) . Worship the CREATOR not his creation.

 

I think MUSLIM leaders should honestly say the TRUTH to those who want them to light the DEEPAM and stay away from such rituals... If U think U will not get vote from hindus....Then think all hearts are controlled by Allah. Its easy for ALLAH. Atleast be HONEST and help the community.

Deepam - Lighting the lamp. 

 

HINDUS while performing puja , prayer or any religious function light the deepam. It is the starting of the prayer.

These ghee or oil lamps, called Diyas, are meant for performing Puja according to Hindu customs and rituals.The reason for lighting a lamp or deepam is - Fire is the conveyor of our prayers & sacrifices to the Gods. Fire is also a God of divine knowledge, who leads man to the Gods. He was one of the most important Vedic Gods.

Vedic rituals all involve Agni. Agni is present in many phases of life such as honoring of a birth , prayers , at weddings - the homam where the bride and groom circle the fire seven times known as sapta padi. During death also, fire is required.

Agni is the one who knows all things that are born, created or produced. He is the God of will-power, united with wisdom.By lighting a deepam , fire enables human beings to cultivate strong conviction and belief in God. It helps to develop a meaningful faith and deep devotion to support a dedicated mind towards God.

Before starting our daily prayers, we light the Oil deepam by chanting a shloka

Bengaluru, July 28: Former prime minister and JD(S) chief H D Deve Gowda today threatened to launch a state-wide agitation in against the amendments made to the Karnataka Land Reforms Act.

Gowda’s opposition to the new law comes even as Congress leader Siddaramaiah is also doggedly pursuing it.

Demanding that the state government immediately rollback the ordinance empowering these amendments, the octogenarian leader said he personally would take to streets if the government failed to budge.

The B S Yediyurappa government has liberalised the land reforms law by removing restrictions on non-agriculturists from purchasing and owning farm lands.

The government has also amended the APMC Act and has tweaked labour laws, which are all “against the interest of the state and must be rolled back,” Gowda said.

Speaking to reporters here, Gowda stated that he had already written thrice to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa in this regard. "The ordinances have to be taken back. The amendments to Karnataka Land Reforms Act, by repealing sections 79-A, B and C, is an anti-farmer move. The APMC Act amendment, too, is against the interest of the state. The government has failed to speak about the impact of these amendments," said Gowda, who is now a Rajya Sabha member.

Elaborating on the amendment to the Land Reform Act, the JD(S) patriarch opined that by throwing open agricultural land ownership to anybody at all, the government was only helping real estate developers while pushing farmers into a “vulnerable” situation.

Amidst all this, there are now reports of funds misappropriation in Covid-19 relief measures and in procurement of medical equipment, he said, adding that it seemed like only the corrupt became stronger over time.

Further, Gowda lambasted both national parties for creating political unrest, referring to the ongoing political crisis in Rajasthan and the recent developments in Madhya Pradesh. However, he added that he would not wish to dwell on it much, while emphasising that his focus was primarily on strengthening his own party at this point in time.
