“Butter lamp offering symbolized the way of eliminate darkness and ignorance. Offering butter lamps to the Statue of Buddha and bodhisatvas are said to bring positive virtue to away the ignorance and bring in wisdom. With each lamp offering, celebrate the enlightenment of Buddha and also bring good fortune for oneself.
