Tibetan butter lamps are traditional oil lamps filled with yak butter. They are lit in temples and monasteries as a symbolic light for spiritual enlightenment. The delicate flame spreads a warm atmosphere and symbolizes the pursuit of enlightenment. These butter lamps can either be traditionally filled with a wick and oil (or butterfat) or with a rechaud candle.
