Silver is also a popular choice for Diyas. In India, silver is considered to be precious, sacred, and a symbol of purity, and abundance. The soft glow of silver diyas add a shine to the morning puja and rituals.
Lighting a silver diya in the home temple is believed to invite calmness, peace, and prosperity into the homes and is especially used during big rituals like yagnas, marriage, kathas, and more.
