5. Burn the contents

Proceed with caution!


The cotton should become soaked in the oil or ghee completely. Then light the cotton piece on either end.

Burning

Cover the diya with a metal pan that can rest on 2 items equal in size that are non-flammable.


Leave it like this for 2 hours.

6. Collect the powder

After 2 hours of burning, remove the pan. This is the result at this stage:
