Homa is a Sacred Vedic Fire Ceremony conducted with powerful mantras chanted. Homas are more powerful than individual chanting or meditations in clearing karma, performing Samskara Shuddhi (internal purification) and in taking one to wish fulfillment. MitraKalyan releases affordable “no frills” DVDs in this homa series and strives to bring Divine Grace to extended spiritual family and friends.
This Homa is conducted in the picturesque coastal area bordering the Arabian Sea in Kochi, Kerala, India, in a Temple where for 500 years prayers were offered each day by a team of priests. In one of the rare practices, due to abundant coconut plantations close by, the priest fans some embers and makes the fire blaze forth. This has a deep symbolic meaning. The embers are at first covered with soot or ash, and the fire may not show forth. However, this fanning of the embers till they burst into flame is akin to the spiritual process of a guru, priest, or pundit (scholar), who will fan the muted sacred fire in one’s heart ill it bursts into flame and blazes forth. A blaze has the power of transformation of material such as dark coal into white ash, while releasing the energy held within the dark piece of coal for a long time. This release of our internal energy, with our purified wishes are conveyed to the cosmos by the light of the fire (Agni). Hence, many watch the quality of the flame in a homa – called “Agni Lakshana” – to gain some idea of how pleased the divine entities invited to the fire ceremony are.
Sri Ganesh, who is the Lord of Removing Obstacles (Vigna Rajaya), grants wisdom and good fortune to those who pray to him. Sri Ganesh Homa is done at the beginning of each and every major event in many eastern traditions. The Bhagavati Seva and the Puja (elaborate prayer) is a powerful invocation to the Universal Mother Energy (Devi Shakti or Goddess Power).
Maha Kali, the Goddess of Shakti, is propitiated to calm the turbulent mind with “mind babbling” or “mind chatter” – with fragmented energy and a loss of focus. To a calm mind, comes the awareness and Grace of the Divine easily. This is useful for the third eye (Ajna or Agneya, the sixth chakra at eye brow center).
Maha Saraswathi, the Goddess of Learning, blesses us with good education, professional growth, and spiritual mastery. This is very useful for those who have been suppressed in their articulation over a period of time, and has a positive effect on the fifth chakra (Throat chakra which is for joyful self-expression.)
Maha Lakshmi, the Goddess of Great Wealth, grants us material wealth and creativity (Kriya Shakti), and shows us how to turn it into Sat (Good) Karma or great wealth that transcends time and space to benefit us and our loved ones. This has a good effect in the blossoming of the sacred (as opposed to the physical heart) heart called “Anahata” or the fourth chakra. Humans generally suffer a great deal before they realize that the “abundance” they are given in one or more areas or aspects of life can be translated or transformed into the other areas. Often, humans are endowed with good friends or family, education or training, charming speech or some talent, grace of a teacher or a guru, life’s experiences, health, strength, wisdom, love, material advantages such as material wealth or income, and past sat karma or spiritual power.
These prayers help one transcend the limitations of form (Maha Vishnu, Maha Lakshmi’s spouse is the Lord of all forms). Watching this DVD a few times helps internal purification (Samskara Shuddhi) and wish fulfillment. Sacred Vedic Fire Ceremony performed in a 500 year old Temple in Kerala by Venerated Priest Ramesh Bhattji (affectionately called “Badu Mam”) and his team of priests. Some of the Priest’s explanations are in local language of Malayalam.
