酥油是什麽呢?在印度傳統中是重要的食用油以及宗教最高級的供燈用油。

What is ghee? It is an important edible oil in Indian tradition and the highest religious oil for lamps.

 

酥油並不是涉及殺生,而是透過不斷攪動牛奶讓水和油脂分離出來的油脂。

Ghee does not involve killing, but the oil that separates the water and oil by constantly stirring the milk.

 

在食用上,西藏人製作酥油茶的必備材料,而印度人也會用來烹調,讓食物增添香氣。

In terms of food, Tibetans make butter tea essential materials, and Indians also use it for cooking to add aroma to the food.

 

在宗教上,由於酥油是從神聖的牛的牛奶製作出來,在印度教、佛教傳統上是最上等的宗教用油。包括燃燈、火供、灌浴等。燃點酥油燈是代表著破除無明的黑暗,讓智慧和光明生起。印度風水學認爲,燃燈酥油燈出了能帶來光明,燃燒的時候也會為空間帶來非常純淨的能量,從而能夠淨化空間。

Religiously, since ghee is made from the milk of sacred cows, it is traditionally the best religious oil in Hinduism and Buddhism. Including burning lamps, fire offerings, bathing, etc. Lighting the butter lamp represents the eradication of the darkness of ignorance and the emergence of wisdom and light. Indian feng shui believes that burning butter lamps can bring light, and when burning, it will also bring very pure energy to the space, which can purify the space.

 

現在很多市面上用來供燈的所謂酥油或植物性酥油,其實也能夠稱爲真正的酥油,因爲那些只是使用棕櫚油或大豆油加入色素以及香精,所以不能食用。而在印度傳統中,棕櫚油以及大豆油也是不吉祥的油,並不適合用作宗教供燈。不過很多商人就是謊稱珍貴的純酥油,由於是動物油所以是殺生的,然後就叫人使用廉價和無益處的所謂植物性酥油。

Now many so-called ghee or vegetable ghee used for lamps on the market can actually be called real ghee, because those only use palm oil or soybean oil to add pigments and flavors, so they cannot be eaten. In Indian tradition, palm oil and soybean oil are also unlucky oils and are not suitable for religious lamps. However, many businessmen lied that precious pure ghee was killed because it was animal oil, and then asked people to use the so-called vegetable ghee that was cheap and unprofitable.

 

所以如果需要用作供燈祈福或者是淨化空間的,必須使用真正的牛奶酥油才是正確如法的。而且可以食用,在印度傳統醫學經常會使用。

Therefore, if you need to use it as a lamp for blessing or to purify the space, you must use real milk ghee. It is also edible and is often used in traditional Indian medicine.
