WHAT IS AGNIHOTRA?

Agnihotra is the basic HOMA.  All planets in our solar system revolve around the Sun and all HOMAS and HOMA Therapy Techniques revolve around the Agnihotra Homa (Yajnya) which is based on the circadian rhythm of Sunrise/Sunset.  Agnihotra establishes the ‘Healing Cycle’ and should therefore be performed daily.

The root word ‘agni‘ means Fire.  The english word ‘ignition‘ has its roots in the Sanskrit word Agni.  Ancient wisdom describes Agnihotra as follows:

AT SUNRISE THE MANY FIRES, ELECTRICITES, ETHERS AND MORE SUBTLE ENERGIES EMANATING FROM THE SUN EXTEND ALL THE WAY TO THE EARTH AND PRODUCE A FLOOD EFFECT AT THOSE  COORDINATES WHERE THE SUN IS SAID TO RISE.  IT IS AWESOME.  THE FLOOD ENLIVENS AND PURIFIES EVERYTHING IN ITS PATH, DESTROYING WHAT IS IMPURE IN ITS WAKE.  THIS  TORRENT OF LIFE SUSTAINING ENERGIES CAUSES ALL LIFE TO REJOICE.  AT SUNRISE THAT MUSIC CAN BE HEARD.  THE MORNING AGNIHOTRA MANTRA IS THE ESSENCE OF THAT MUSIC.  IT IS QUINTESSENTIAL SOUND OF THAT FLOOD.  AT SUNSET THE FLOOD RECEDES.

Agnihotra is a gift to humanity from ancient most Vedic sciences of bioenergy, medicine, agriculture and climate engineering. Agnihotra is the process of purification of the atmosphere through the agency of fire prepared in a copper pyramid tuned to the biorhythm of sunrise/sunset.  By practice of Agnihotra you will notice that tension on mind disappears and you begin to experience peace.  The mind is reshaped so nicely, so delicately, so effortlessly by sitting in Agnihotra atmosphere.

EFFECTS OF AGNIHOTRA

AGNIHOTRA MATERIALS

Following are some of the things told about Agnihotra in ancient science tradition.

Tremendous amounts of energy are gathered around the Agnihotra copper pyramid just at Agnihotra time.  A magnetic type field is created, one which neutralizes negative energies and reinforces positive energies.  Therefore a positive pattern is created by one who does Agnihotra merely by his/her performance.

When Agnihotra is performed, the Agnihotra smoke gathers particles of harmful  radiation in the atmosphere and on a very subtle level neutralizes their radioactive effect.  Nothing is destroyed, merely changed.

When Agnihotra fire is burnt there is not just energy from the fire but subtle energies are created by the rhythms and Mantras.  These energies are generated or thrust into the atmosphere by fire.  Also consider the quality of materials burnt wherein lies the full effect of this healing HOMA.  Much healing energy emanates from the Agnihotra pyramid.

AGNIHOTRA – Dung and Ghee

Collecting the Dung
Use fresh manure from male or female progeny of cow.  Dung can be collected using rubber gloves so that you can pick up the dung without getting any dirt, grass or rocks in it.  Or you can use a clean shovel or similar instrument.  Think good thoughts while collecting the dung, as this heightens its healing effect.
 
Drying Dung
There are numerous ways to dry dung.  There are also variations in the shape, size and thickness.  One of the more simple ways of drying cow dung is as follows.  Get a simple window or door screen.  The more cow dung you wish to spread the more screens you will need.  They can be bought at used building supply outlets for as little as a dollar a piece.  Place the screen on the ground or a smooth surface like a sheet of plywood.  Then pour the fresh cow dung on the screen and spread it to the desired thickness with a pointing trowel or similar tool.  Next use the pointing trowel to cut the wet dung into nice size pieces.  Lift and dry the screens off the ground for better air flow.  After the dung has dried, in usually about 4 days it can be scraped off the screen in pieces ready for Agnihotra use.
Making Ghee
Ghee can be made from unsalted butter in a electric cooker (called a “crock pot”) or on a stove on very low heat.  The idea is that the butter heats very gently until all the white foam is cooked out and has risen to the surface.  Whey also separates from the ghee, stays on the bottom of the pan and looks like water.  Ghee is the golden liquid.  The foam that collects on the surface can be spooned off and fed to animals.  When the ghee has turned perfectly clear it is ready, and can be strained through cotton cloth, a coffee filter, or a white paper towel.  Store the ghee in a glass container.  Properly made ghee does not need to be refrigerated.  Ghee becomes even more medicinal as it ages.

AGNIHOTRA MANTRAS

In the morning when the Sun ‘appears’ to rise, Intelligent electricities, when these coordinates come together at the time of Sunrise produce Sound Waves (A Music).  The essence of this music resounds as the ‘Morning Agnihotra Mantra’.

Sooryaya Svaha Sooryaya Idam Na Mama
Prajapataye Svaha Prajapataye Idam Na Mama

These vibrations are loaded with therapeutic (of or relating to the treatment of disease or disorders by remedial agents or methods) qualities, these vibrations at exactly sunrise and sunset act as antidote for the various pathogenic bacteria.  These Vibrations distribute to those in the Agnihotra atmosphere celestial PRANA, thereby rejuvenating and generally forestalling or reducing the rise and fall conditions due to the incarceration (imprisonment) of the human entity and the flux of the bio-rhythmic dualities.  Thereby reducing the possibility of any imbalance caused by the flux of bio-rhythms (the rise and fall of rhythms).  This gives 12 hours protection immunizing and recharging your body with substances produced in the atmosphere by the Agnihotra process and the supplemental celestial PRANA as a result of you attracting it by the Mantric Intonations which travel throughout the universe.

There are vibrations that exist everywhere. It is only vibrations when you go into it.  Where there is vibration there is also sound.  When we do these Mantras, the sounds we utter activate these special vibrations that will create certain atmosphere of effects.  Then the desired results are realized.  These vibrations exist for everything, so anything can be activated, controlled or changed by Mantras.

When one with a pure mind speaks the Mantra into the Agnihotra pyramid at Agnihotra time, the ash retains that energy and the healing properties of the ash become more powerful.

“Nikaame Nikaame Ha Vai Tatra Parjanyo

Varshati, Phalinyo Ha Vaii Tatra Oashadhayah

Pachyanthey, Kaipathey Ha Vai Prajaabhyo

Yogakshemaha Yatraitheyna Yajneyna

Yajanthey”

Taittiriya Brahmanam, 3:8:13

 

“It will rain abundantly wherever we desire. Plants and trees will bear fruits and grains profusely. People will attain Yogakshema: welfare, security, and prosperity where Yajna is performed”

The eight mantras beginning with ‘agnimile’ form the first hymn of Veda.  It is a group of mantras addressed to residing in Holy Fire.  The general purport of these mantras is as follows:

  1. We worship the divine power of the Almighty Father residing in the Holy  Fire.  He, the lord of Yajnyas, manifests in front of us (during the occasions of Agnihotra). To Him at appropriate timings the oblations are offered.  He invokes the divine powers at the place where Yajnya is being performed.
  2. Our forefathers and enlightened seers have worshipped the Holy Fire since thousands of years and we following in their footsteps worship Him.
  3. The Holy Fire bestows upon us happiness, peace, prosperity, health and good progeny.
  4. Oh Lord, that oblation which is carried and protected by you, reaches the divine powers.
  5. Oh Lord Holy Fire is seer and almighty, He is the truth, Oh behold He has manifested with the celestial powers.
  6. Oh Lord you protect those who worship thee by means of Agnihotra (and Yajnyas). The protector of truth and immortality, the lord of Yajnyas, is now ablaze in its altar.
  7. Oh Holy fire we approach thee with salutations every day exactly at Sunrise and Sunset.
  8. Oh lord, bestow upon us what is good for us like a loving father unto his son and protect us leading unto our wellbeing.

 

In the chapter Yajana of Dharmpath Saheb has written “more and more Agnihotra should start.  In each and every house offerings of Agnihotra should be given in morning and evening.  Today if there is extreme essentiality of something, then it is of publicity of Agnihotra.

This could again establish golden era.  Today there is extreme essentiality of Kalpvriksh to get rid of situation of unrest, unhealthfulness, non-prosperity, avarshan,
sadness, famine, etc. and it is for sure that Agnihotra is the only seed for such a Kalpvriksh.

We all have to keep our steps forward to work in the direction of picking speed for its publicity.  If we will do its publicity and people will follow Agnihotra then there is no doubt that this religious doing will show its greatness and hugeness to the performer.

It is a great worship without doing any  worship and  is a very effective prayer without doing any prayer.

It is the medium to get protection by the power of God.

There is no other medium like this – home – to – home publicity of Agnihotra.  It is the real form of religion.
