Lighting a candle is a beautiful ritual. It’s a very ancient human technology that fulfills the exact same purpose today as it did for our ancestors thousands of years ago – A candle lit with intention enhances our everyday life with meaning and purpose and helps us navigate the complexities of existence. The Art&Ode candles are blessed with powerful ancient, Vedic and Puranic mantras to make our lives more auspicious. They come with mantras that you can listen to and allow the sound to permeate your space along with the aroma. Below are some ideas for you to consider while making these candles a part of your everyday ritual:

Greet mornings, light evenings:

Ancients believed that these transition times of the day were a time when energy shifts happened around us. These transition times are great for lighting your candle and listening to the sound of its mantra because it attracts positive energies and repels negative forces around us during the churn in the day.

Cultivate a meditative, mindful mind:

We hope our candle can inspire you to look inward, even if it’s a few minutes every day. Meditating with a candle is an ancient technique that enhances concentration, clears mind, and fosters inner peace. Light the candle, sit comfortably, focus, play the candle’s mantra, and allow it to anchor your mind and facilitate a deeper connection with your inner self. This creates a holistic meditative experience, engaging both visual and auditory senses, and promoting a profound sense of calm and focus.

Relaxation and healing:

The practice of relaxation and healing is about setting aside a dedicated time each day to engage in activities that help you decompress and restore balance. Activities like journaling, deep breathing exercises, stretching or other such activities are great for unwinding. Lighting your candle and listening to its mantra while doing these activities helps alleviate stress and cultivates a sense of inner peace.

Peace and protection:

You can light your candle for peace, safety and protection. This act isn’t just symbolic, it’s rooted in a time-honored ancient practice. The flame of your candle carries divine protection in its light and warmth in the form of hope and security. Play the candle’s mantra while the flame burns and set an intention that gets carried with the mantra vibrations into the universe that then manifest back to you as safeguards from harm. This simple yet powerful ritual provides us emotional reassurance and spiritual fortification.

Celebration and remembrance:

Whether it’s a joyous celebration such as a birthday or anniversary, or a solemn remembrance of a loved one, your practice of lighting a candle and listening to its mantra fosters a deep sense of connection and reverence. The candle’s glow and the mantra’s vibrations work in harmony to center the mind and spirit, allowing you to immerse yourself in the moment. This combination not only enhances the significance of the occasion but also brings a sense of peace and depth to it.
