Cast in solid brass with a warm bright gold finish, this exceptional puja lamp is a dual sacred object — a fully functional \u003cstrong\u003efive-wick oil lamp (pancha batti deepak)\u003c\/strong\u003e in the form of an open lotus flower, resting upon the back of a \u003cstrong\u003eKurma (sacred tortoise)\u003c\/strong\u003e — combining the power of sacred light, the symbol of cosmic support, and the energy of Vastu-aligned prosperity in a single, strikingly beautiful piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKurma (the tortoise \/ Kashyapa)\u003c\/strong\u003e is the second avatar of Lord Vishnu — the divine support upon which the cosmos rests. In the Samudra Manthan (the churning of the cosmic ocean), Kurma dove to the ocean floor and bore the weight of Mount Mandara upon his back so that the gods and asuras could churn forth the nectar of immortality. He is thus the very embodiment of divine stability, patience, longevity, and the silent sustaining power that underlies all of creation. In Vastu Shastra, the brass tortoise is one of the most auspicious objects one can place in a home — said to attract wealth, protect the household, and ensure long life and harmony for all who dwell within.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etortoise base\u003c\/strong\u003e is sculpted in full relief — four legs, a distinct head, and a raised tail — with the domed caparace engraved with a sunburst of radiating lines from the center, surrounded by raised spherical nodes, scrolling floral vines, and spiral motifs in the classical style of South Indian decorative brass casting. The \u003cstrong\u003elotus-shaped diya\u003c\/strong\u003e sits at the center of the tortoise’s back — a wide, open cup with petals curving outward and a serrated petal-edge rim, with \u003cstrong\u003efive wick channels (pancha batti)\u003c\/strong\u003e spaced around the rim for five simultaneous flames — the auspicious number associated with the five elements, the pancha tatvas, and the complete puja offering of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItem: Brass Kurma (Tortoise) Pancha Batti Deepak (Five-Wick Oil Lamp on Tortoise Base)\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Brass (Bright Gold Finish)\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Approximately 5\" Wide x 2\" Tall\u003cbr\u003eLamp Form: Lotus-Shaped Diya with 5 Wick Channels (Pancha Batti)\u003cbr\u003eBase: Full Kurma (Tortoise) Sculpture with Decorative Carapace Relief\u003cbr\u003eUse: Puja Lamp, Aarti, Home Mandir, Vastu Décor, Diwali, and Gifting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaily puja, aarti, and pancha deepa offerings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiwali, Dhanteras, and Lakshmi puja\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVastu Shastra prosperity placement (northeast or entrance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome mandir and sacred space focal piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA deeply auspicious and beautifully functional devotional gift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease Note: Use appropriate oil or ghee and cotton wicks when lighting.
