Ram:
Can you provide references about camphor's significance and the "perfume" factor?
Also I would like to read more about Aarti being used to illuminate different parts of the idol. Is there material around?
Whatever I have read so far all point to the thought of keeping "evil eye" and "evil spirits" away from the person and devata. So if you have material that shed more light , it would clarify certain things in my mind. Thanks.
