A few days ago a was given one of these small oil cups at the Hindu temple that I visited in Colombo. At the time I had no idea exactly how these were used. Today when visiting a Budist temple in Colombo I saw them in use and managed to take a quick picture.

The photo below shows how the cups look after use.
Charred and cracked from the heat they are discarded on a metal tray outside the temple.
