Lighting of the lamp

What does lighting of the lamp means ? Well sombody said Light represents Knowledge and Darkness signifies ignorance. Since HE is the ultimate source for knowledge (Chaitanya) and illuminator of all knowledge and Knowledge = Light, so Light = HIM.

So while lighting the lamp we can pray as follow:

Deepajyothi parabrahma
Deepa sarva tamopahaha
Deepena saadhyate saram
Sandhyaa deepo namostute
