The fire that comes out of the earth is volcanic rock. The fire that comes out of the sky is a meteorite. The fire that burns in the soul and dispels darkness is a torch. The lighting of the jyothi during the Thayi Poosam festival is to light this torch in everyone's soul. The Thayi Poosam jyothi is a bridge that unites the heat of the Sun with the coolness of the Moon.
