Most of the people are not able to worship properly at home every day, but they definitely light the lamp in the morning and evening. By lighting a lamp in front of God one can also get the grace of God. Lighting a lamp of ghee or oil gives religious benefits as well as health benefits. According to astrology if some things are taken care of while lighting the lamp, then the wishes can be fulfilled soon. 
Know these special things related to Deepak.. 
1.According to the scriptures, By lighting a lamp regularly positive energy remains in the house. Goddess Lakshmi is pleased by lighting a lamp at the main door of the house every evening.
2. While worshiping, a lamp of ghee should be lit on the left hand side. The oil lamp should be placed on the right hand side.
3. The lamp should always be placed right in front of the idol of God. White cotton light should be used for ghee lamps
. Whereas the red thread light is said to be the best for the oil lamp.
4.A broken lamp should never be lit during worship. Broken material is not considered auspicious in religious works. This mantra should be chanted while lighting the lamp-
शुभम करोति कल्याणं, आरोग्यं धन संपदाम्।
शत्रु बुद्धि विनाशाय, दीपं ज्योति नमोस्तुते।।
The simple meaning of this mantra is that salutations to the light of the lamp, which gives auspiciousness and welfare, gives health and wealth, destroys enemy intelligence.
5.It is believed in the scriptures that by lighting a lamp with chanting of mantras, happiness and prosperity remains in the family. 
Health benefits are available and wealth and property are obtained. Also, the intellect of enemies is destroyed.
