Fire has been given the name of ‘Agni-deva’. We worship fire. We do Homa. We also perform ‘Aarati’ to God with a flame of fire. Now gently close your eyes. We are going to feel the warmth of the ‘Fire’.

The day dawns, you rise early from bed and say the morning prayers. Just go out and see the sun. The Sun’s light dispels the darkness of night and spreads everywhere. You feel the warmth of the morning sun. You take bath and wash your cloths, dry up in the sun.

Then your loving mother serves you hot tiffin cooked on fire. The sun rises over head at noon and again you enjoy delicious lunch cooked with the help of Fire. For the whole day the sun has given light, heat and energy. Evening comes and you get the light of the moon. Your mother lights the sacred lamp at your shrine room for prayer. Incense fire is also lit up to provide fragrance.

Imagine and say that wherever there is light, darkness cannot remain. Just as the Fire burns all things, knowledge about God will remove all bad thoughts. Bad thoughts are out and all good thoughts are in. Flame of fire always goes up. Similarly we should always have high and lofty ideals and thoughts. Say these words and gently open your eyes. Oh! God, Lead me from darkness to light.
