HOW ARE GOBAR DIYAS MADE? GOBAR IS COMPLETELY COMBUSTIBLE AND HENCE A LITTLE MUD IS ADDED TO IT SO THAT THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE IT WILL BE BURNT WOULD REMAIN PURE DUE TO DUNG SMOKE AND AT TEH SAME TIME WOULD NOT NEED CONTINUOUS MONITORING AND NO FURNITURE WILL BE HARMED. NOW WHEN COW DUNG MIXES WITH PURE A2 COW GHEE WHICH IS ADDED TO START THE DIYA, THE THING THAT GETS GENERATED IS TOLD TO BE OXYGEN AND HENCE OURITY INT HE AIR IS FELT WHEN GOBAR IS BURNT WITH PURE GHEE AND COTTON WICK . SO THIS DIWALI, WHICH DIYA IS IT THAT YOU ARE GOING TO LIGHT AT YOUR HOME ?

Does smoke from a gobar diya really purify the air and create oxygen? Think of the traditional clay diya you light at Diwali: fuel, a cotton wick, and a flame. The proposed gobar diya uses a similar basic idea. Cow dung is shaped with some mud, then ghee and a cotton wick are added to start the flame. The source gives no exact ratio, so mud may help slow or control burning, but it is not a safety guarantee. A burning diya still needs care, especially near furniture. Here is the correction: the flame uses oxygen. It does not create it. Smoke is not proof that the air has become cleaner. And calling it pure A2 cow ghee is not evidence that burning creates oxygen. That distinction matters. You can light a gobar diya for tradition. But does it purify the air or generate oxygen? No.
