White Cotton Puja Wicks

A puja wick, or batti, is the small cotton thread lit in a diya to provide the flame during daily worship. These White Cotton Puja Wicks are made from plain cotton, a basic but genuinely essential item for regular lamp-lighting practice.

Every diya, whether a simple clay lamp or an ornate brass one, needs a wick to hold and draw up the oil or ghee that fuels the flame, and these White Cotton Puja Wicks are made specifically for that purpose.

Cotton is the traditional material for this use, since it burns cleanly and draws liquid fuel steadily, unlike synthetic threads that can melt or burn unevenly.

How Many Wicks You Get in This Pack

Check the specific listing for the exact quantity included in this pack of White Cotton Puja Wicks, since a small, everyday consumable item like this is typically sold in a bundle rather than individually.

Given how frequently wicks are used and replaced during daily worship, many households keep a stock on hand rather than reordering each time.

Storing and Using These Puja Wicks

Store these White Cotton Puja Wicks in a dry place away from moisture, which can affect how evenly they draw oil or ghee once lit.

Trim or fold the wick to the appropriate length for your specific diya before lighting, since a wick that’s too long can smoke, while one too short may not draw fuel properly.

The tradition of lighting a diya as part of daily Hindu worship is documented at Diya’s Wikipedia entry.
