Introduction to Agnihotra/homa


Introduction to Agnihotra/homa

The following explanation includes information primarily from materials provided by The Fivefold Path, a nonprofit organization for the distribution of knowledge on how to heal the Earth and its atmosphere.

There is an ancient, Vedic science known as Homa, which refers to purification fires which, when used in accordance to natural laws, that create wholeness in nature. Homa is an aspect of Ayurveda, the ancient Vedic tradition of Life Science.

Homa contributes in the following ways:
Environment: purifies our air, land and water. Known as Homas (Agnihotra is the most simple form of these Homas and is used daily at precisely sunrise and sunset), these healing fires have profound healing effects on all life forms.

Agriculture: growing vegetables, fruits, grains, etc, without chemical fertilizers, insecticides, pesticides and herbicides, using Homa fire.

Medicine: Homa atmosphere and Homa ash are used for prevention and cure of diseases as stated in Ayurveda, neutralizing the effects on the body caused by ingesting radioactive foods.

Psychotherapy: removes stress and tension on the mind and clears areas of negative thought patterns that impinge on the mind.

What is Homa?
Homa is a Sanskrit word and a Vedic science of bioenergy denoting the process of removing the toxic conditions of the atmosphere through the agency of fire. You heal the atmosphere and the healed atmosphere heals you. It replenishes the nutrients that pollution robs from our environment.

Homa Therapy is totally a revealed science. It is as old as creation. In the course of time this knowledge was lost but it is now being resuscitated to give people guidance about how to correct the polluted conditions we find ourselves in on the planet today. The most basic Homa is called Agnihotra and is tuned to the biorhythm of sunrise and sunset.
Performance of Agnihotra on a regular daily basis establishes the healing energies necessary for a healthy environment.

Agnihotra is a specific healing fire from the ancient science of Ayurveda. It is a process of purifying the atmosphere through a specially prepared fire performed at sunrise and sunset daily. Anyone in any walk of life can do Agnihotra and heal the atmosphere. Thousands of people all over the world have experienced that Agnihotra reduces stress, leads to greater clarity of thought, improves overall health, gives increased energy, and makes the mind more filled with love. It is a great aid to drug and alcohol de-addiction. Agnihotra also nourishes plant life and neutralizes harmful radiation and pathogenic bacteria. It harmonizes the functioning of Prana (life energy) and can be used to purify water resources.

The process involves preparing a small fire in a copper pyramid of fixed size and putting some grains of rice and ghee (clarified butter) into the fire exactly at sunrise and sunset accompanied by the chant of two simple mantras. Its effects extend beyond the structure in which you perform it and it expresses through any objects or structures.

Agnihotra is an ancient science given in Sanskrit language at the time of creation. Sanskrit is a language of vibration. We can make changes in the atmosphere with Sanskrit mantras and fire prepared with specific organic substances, timed to be the sunrise and sunset biorhythm. There is energy from the fire’s subtle energies infused with the rhythms of nature and mantras. These energies are generated or thrust into the atmosphere by fire. This, in addition to the qualities of the materials burned, produces the full effect of this healing fire.

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

Medicinal properties of Agnihotra
Agnihotra renews brain cells, revitalizes the skin and purifies the blood. It is the holistic approach to life. Many people who are normally allergic to smoke experience a healing effect by sitting in Agnihotra atmosphere. Thousands of people in different parts of the world have experienced wonderful healings of all types by doing Agnihotra.
