Eternal flames
Candles have been used as symbols since they were first invented. Despite not being particularly necessary in the modern electric world, candles are used by every religion and in every society.  Uses vary, but cover life cycle events from birth till death.  They communicate different messages from romance, eternity, comfort and peace to hope and faith. When Yitzchak married Rivka the miracles found in Sarah’s tent returned, among them the candles that burned from week to week: “For whilst Sarah was living, a light had been burning in the tent from one Sabbath eve to the next”
