Now scientists, medical professionals and psychologists are all veering towards a holistic health
approach in thinking. The science of physics generally leads the way. However, the quantum leap taken
by physics is not yet manifest in other sciences. A few years ago, when the physicist started talking about
obsever-dependent universe, he took a big step backward - several millenniums in fact, and there is no
way left for him but to land in the gold mine of knowledge called Vedas, the ancient most body of
knowledge known to mankind. HOMA Therapy comes from this source knowledge.
HOMA is a Sanskrit word used here synonymously with YAJNYA. YAJNYA is the technical term from the
Vedic science of bioenergy denoting the process of removing the toxic conditions of the atmosphere
through the agency of fire. This means purifying of the atmosphere with fire as the medium.

YOU HEAL THE ATMOSPHERE AND THE HEALED ATMOSPHERE HEALS YOU!
This is the central idea in HOMA Therapy.
The word therapy refers to healing. HOMA Therapy means healing by utilizing the healing effects of
HOMA fire on the atmosphere. Fundacja Terapia Homa teaches these various simple methods for
harmonizing the energy cycle of the planet.
These Homa Therapy methods are easy to adopt and cost nearly nothing. They have yielded wonderful
results wherever they have been practiced.
Bioenergetic Homa Healing for all types of psycho-physical diseases are taking place worldwide where
people practice these simple and powerful ayurvedic Homa techniques.
Even some so-called incurable diseases like HIV+, Cancer, Lupus, Parkinson, Diabetes, Schizophrenia,
Epileptic seizures, Emphysema, Asthma, Addictions, Hypertension, Depression, Paralysis, Stroke,
Tumors, some Congenital problems, Hyperactivity in children, and simple medical problems like Pains,
Headaches, Gastritis, Rhinitis, Sinusitis, etc. were cured applying Homa Therapy.
The basic bioenergetic process of Homa Therapy is called AGNIHOTRA and it is a small medicinal fire
tuned to the biorhythm of sunrise and sunset.
 Agnihotra is a 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 in his/her own home.

Hundreds of thousands of people all over the world have experienced that Agnihotra reduces stress,
leads to greater clarity of thought, improves overall health, gives one increased energy, and makes
the mind more full of love.

Agnihotra and Microbes, A Laboratory Experience
Dr. Arvind D. Mondkar M.Sc; Ph.D (Micro)

Our way of life has intensified the quantum of pollution. No place can be
called safe from pollution. What varies is the type of pollutant and the degree of
pollution. Pollution is of various types such as gaseous pollution, water pollution,
food pollution, radioactive pollution and so on. Of these types microbial pollution is
the most important type of pollution for people in the medical or paramedical field.
Microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature.
There are mainly two types, namely non-pathogenic or saprophytic (harmless and not causing any
disease) and pathogenic (disease producing). There are certain opportunistic pathogens which, given a
chance, can produce disease in human beings. Thus the mere presence of these microorganisms in a
definite strength in various media can produce contaminants.
Microorganisms like Salmonellae, Shigellae or Vibrios contaminate water,
eatables, milk and milk products. When the contaminated eatables are consumed
the individual suffers from typhoid, bacillary dysentary or cholera. Similarly,
organisms like Staphylococci cause food poisoning by increasing toxins in food.
This microorganism also causes wound infections with pus formation. Streptococci
infect the respiratory tract after inhalation of the droplet nuclei on which they are
settled. Hospital infections by Staphylococci and Pseudomones are not
uncommon. Recently, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been reported to have entered
the space age. This microorganism was isolated from the lining of the fuel tank of
a jet engine and was found to be responsible for the corrosion of the tank.

It is stated that Agnihotra helps to undo the effects of pollution. In this respect it was decided to
observe the last type of pollutant, i.e., microorganisms and the effect of Agnihotra on them. The
present article restricts only to the effect of Agnihotra on microorganisms as observed in a
microbiology laboratory.

Agnihotra Effect on Bacterial Population

A preliminary experiment was carried out to study the effect of Agnihotra on

the bacterial population in a room where Agnihotra was performed. For this study,
two rooms of equal dimensions (13¼’ x 8’ x 11’) were selected. In both rooms fire
was prepared from dried cowdung cakes in copper pyramids and the basal reading
of number of microorganisms in both the rooms was taken by exposing blood agar
plates at four corners of the room for 10 minutes. This was done exactly half an
hour before Agnihotra time. Agnihotra was performed exactly at sunset in one of
the rooms. Bacterial counts were taken again in both the rooms in a similar manner
at half hour intervals. Thus readings were taken in both the rooms up to two hours
after performance of Agnihotra. It was quite interesting to note that microbial
counts in the room where Agnihotra was performed were reduced by 91.4%
whereas the room where only fire was generated did not show appreciable changes
in the microbial counts. This leads one to think that it was the process of Agnihotra
which was responsible for the reduction of bacterial counts and not the mere
presence of fire.

Two other similar experiments revealed similar findings. The phenomenon

could be explained by giving two reasons:

- Agnihotra fumes are rich in formaldehyde and other substances which have
inhibitory effect on microorganisms.

- A phenomenon like smog formation and its diffusion in the upper strata might be
a likely postulation.

In the regions of North and South poles, many times, carbon particles accumulate
to form a layer called “smog”. When fire is lit the hot currents push the smog into
the upper strata and it is diffused in such a way that the carbon particles are no
longer harmful in the residual concentration. In the present study perhaps
Agnihotra fumes might have dissociated the microorganisms in such a way that the
residual population was no more harmful and was well within tolerable limit to
human beings.

Agnihotra Effects on Bioenergetic Systems of Individual Microorganisms

This kindled our interest and it was decided to study the effect of Agnihotra
on the bioenergetic systems of individual microorganisms. A strain of
Staphylococci pyogenes isolated from a pus sample was selected for the study. The
strain showed all the characteristics of a pathogen. It was isolated from a lesion,
produced beta haemolyses on blood agar, showed a positive coagulase test and
fermented mannitol with the production of acid. The strain was innoculated on a
pair of blood agar plates, one of which was kept away from the Agnihotra
atmosphere (control plate). The other one was exposed to Agnihotra fumes for five
minutes and was allowed to remain in that atmosphere till next Agnihotra was
performed (approximately 12 hours). Agnihotra is to be performed on the
biorhythm of sunrise/sunset. Surprisingly, it was observed that the plate exposed to
Agnihotra (test plate) showed a tremendous reduction in the zone of haemolysis as
against a wide zone of haemolysis in the control plate.

Organisms from both the plates were then subjected to coagulase test. The
organisms from the test plate showed a negative coagulase test demonstrating their
inability to produce coagulase. Finally, the organisms from both the plates were
emulsified in one ml. of normal saline separately to give suspensions of equal
strength. This was achieved by use of Brown’s opacity tube no. 3. The suspensions
were then injected intradermally into the thighs of an albino mouse. The mouse
was kept under observation for five days.

It was very interesting to note that the suspension from the test plate failed
to produce any lesion in the mouse wheras the suspension from the control plate
produced typical abscess. These results suggest that Agnihotra played a pivotal role
in controlling the metabolic activities of this microorganism. In this case, a
pathogenic strain of Staphylococcus pyogenes showed characteristics of a
nonpathogenic strain ofter exposure to Agnihotra atmosphere. This was just an
observation and triggered quite a number of questions in the mind:

- Is this effect phenotypic or genotypic?

- Is it necessary to expose the strain for a prolonged time interval or will a short
exposure cause a similar effect?
- Will the progeny of these microorganisms behave in a similar manner?
- Does the small or microdose of substances released from Agnihotra process boost
the immunity mechanism of the patient to get rid of the infection or does the
infecting agent lose its virulence? Perhaps both the effects go hand in hand.
Answers to these questions are still beyond sight and show a need for further
experimentation in this field.

Therapeutic Effect of Agnihotra Ash

An attempt was then made to study the therapeutic use of Agnihotra ash
against scabies in rabbits. Rabbits are quite often infected with scabies—marked by
snow white crust formations on their nose, ear margins and skin. The infection
then becomes systemic and the animal dies. Normally this sort of scabies is cured
by daily application of benzyl benzoate and salicylic acid for about 6 to 8 days,
depending upon the severity of the infection.

In one study, Agnihotra ash was homogenized with an equal volume of

cow’s ghee (clarified unsalted butter) and applied over the infected area above the
nostrils of a rabbit. Agnihotra ash worked extremely well and the crust was
detached on the third day of application—and that too with a single application.
With benzyl benzoate and salicylic acid, it took five days for the crust to detach
itself from the control rabbit. Another notable advantage of this was that the
preparation was not irritating like benzyl bezoate or salicylic acid. The rabbits
always lick that application because of irritation and the young ones die of
poisoning. This risk could be avoided with Agnihotra ash.
These results promise a solution to microbial pollution by the performance
of Agnihotra and ingestion of Agnihotra ash medicines.

Agnihotra Ash and Water Soluble Phosphates

Dr. Tung Ming Lai, Denver, Colorado
I did some lab testing on Agnihotra ash. The results are interesting. 0.10 g. of ash
was shaken with 25 mi. of water for forty-eight hours and then the water soluble
phosphate content was measured. The same amount of ash was shaken with two
different soils (5 g.) from Colorado (also 25 mi. of water) and phosphate content
was measured after forty-eight hours of being shaken. The results are as follows.
(The values are the average values of duplicates.)

The non-Agnihotra ash was produced with the same ingredients in the same copper vessal
as Agnihotra ash. The only difference was the non-Agnihotra ash was not produced at
sunrise or sunset, and no mantras were chanted.
(All growing plants need phosphorus; however, regardless of how much
phosphorus is added to the soil, only the water soluble portion can be utilized by
the plant. On an average, only about five percent of the phosphorus in conventional
chemical fertilizers is water soluble.--Ed.)

Agnihotra and Grapes

Dr. B. G. Bhujbal, Research Officer Maharashtra State Grape Growers' Association, Poona, India
(Satsang Vol. 8, No. 17, 1981)
Grapes are a difficult crop to grow under Maharashtra's climatic conditions and also equally
difficult to study. I have been associated with research work on grapes while studying for
my M.Sc. degree at the University of Poona, India since 1967. Various problems faced by
the workers since then were finally put before the research workers at the Agricultural
College, Poona.
Hybridization work with grapes had already commenced before my association with this
work. I have been observing the results of that work. It was reported that the germination
of hybrid grape seeds had been very late and low. When I conducted hundreds of crosses at
the Ganeshkhind Fruit Experimental Station, Poona-7 and sowed the seeds after treatment
by advanced techniques which included hormones, scarification, stratification etc., the
results were discouraging. The germination percentage was very low, i.e. below 20 % and
some of the seeds even took 300 days for germination.
Meanwhile I came to learn of Agnihotra and Homa Therapy farming and thought why not
have a trial of this therapy in grape research. There was a solar eclipse on 16th of February
1980. I had also read previously that the no-moon day was the best day for seed treatment
and sowing. With this background and not to miss the opportunity I coIlected seeds of the
Anab-e-shahi, Pandhari Sahebi and Kali Sahebi varieties, local vinifera varieties, as well as
some crossed seeds which were collected using the Thompson seedless variety as a male
parent to make the cross. In order to conduct the experiment properly, I applied for leave
on 20th of February 1980 in time for the treatment to commence on 16th of February,
1980. Some unrooted cuttings of local grape varieties were also collected for additional
treatments.
Experimental Plot
All the seeds and the unrooted cuttings were kept in an environment open to Agnihotra
fumes. As far as mantras were concerned, I began with the "Tryambakam" Mantra and
Homa continued for 2 hours, after which the samples were treated with Agnihotra ash and
then put into pots ready for planting. An untreated lot of samples served as a control.
Observations
It was indeed a surprise not only to me and my wife but also to friends who had been
laughing at my expenments to observe the first seedlings sprouting on the 21st day of
sowing. Some of the recorded observations are given in a table below. The second
experiment concerned making raisins. At present, raisin-making is not carried out in
Maharashtra except on an experimental basis using the dehydration and sun-drying
methods. I collected a few bunches of grapes from growers and hung them in the
environment where I was performing Agnihotra. Similar clusters were kept with the growers
for making raisins using their own method of sun-drying. After 21 days the drying was
almost complete, and after 35 days I collected the clusters and tested them. The raisins
were very good in appearance and taste. Special interest rallied around the evidence that
the raisins prepared from the Anabe-shahi variety and having low TSS contact were also
good. Equally good results were obtained by the Thompson seedless variecy growing in the
Agnihotra environment as compared to those varieties generally available in the market.
Another experiment was performed in a grower's field. Mr. Pundlik Khode, a small farmer
from the village of Pimpalgaon-Baswant, Nasik District had been much worried about his
crop and was doubtful regarding repayment of his bank loan obtained for the vineyard.
Agnihotra was done regularly and Agnihotra ash was applied to his vines. The observations
which were recorded at harvest time proved very good. The grower, Mr. Khode, had never
believed in such a possibility until he saw the actual results. The individual berry as well as
the cluster was superior in colour, taste, sweetness and weight. About 150 observers said
that the crop was the best in that locality.

Effect of Agnihotra on Grapes
The above experiment was conducted in the vineyard of Mr. Pundlik Khode on Thompson
seedless grapes at Pimpalgaon Baswant, Nasik, during the year 1979-80.
1. Agnihotra was performed by Dr. B. G, Bhujbal, Asst. Horticulturist, M, Phule Agricultural
University. 2. Other Homas were performed by Mr. Ranade, Manager, State Bank of India.
3. Regular operations were carried out by Mr. Pundlik Khode, owner of the vineyard. Mr.
Khode was very happy with the Agnihotra results.
Agnihotra was also performed for raisin-making. This was done in March 1980. Clusters
were hung from the roof, and under the clusters Agnihotra was performed regularly, twice
daily. In 21 days the grapes dried under room conditions and the quality of the grape raisins
was excellent. The variety used was Thompson seedless.
Agricultural Experience with Vanilla Plants
Abhay Mutalikdesai, Karnatak, India
Nature is a silent performer and I was anxious to see her work. Since hundreds of farmers
are closely observing our Homa Therapy work at Sutagatti, I was slightly under tension.
Our faith and devotion has started working in this after three months of regular Homa.
The single infected banana plant has gotten the first healthy leaf. The shoot appears
disease-free. I will soon send the earlier and later photograph.
I am also very happy to inform that the first vanilla produce for the year 1999-2000 is of
excellent quality. The vanilla bean curing process (three months) was started along with
Homa Therapy. The cured vanilla beans were tested at Spice Board testing laboratory in
Cochin. The following are the results:
Vanillin%

ernanakulam
1998 2.56
(kerala)
myladumpara
1999 2.71
(kerala)
sutagatti
2000 2.91
(karnatak)
The above results have given immense joy to all of us, including our fellow organic farmers
who had participated in our Homa Therapy.
Now a person with deep knowledge about farm seeds has approached us. He is ready to
offer voluntary services in developing a seed bank, seed plots and demonstration plots for
fellow farmers in our area.
In this month we had three heavy rains at Sutagatti. First occasion was when I was
performing Om Tryambakam Homa. The other two rains came during evening Agnihotra.
However, the first occasion was special. It rained only over Parashanatti and Sutagatti.
This rain was very essential to us because the electricity transmission transformer was
burnt and we had no power for fifteen days. Our mud barrage built across River
Ghataprabha remains now full; otherwise, it dried up by middle of May. Availability of
abundant water for farming during summer has happened, after many, many years.
My workers, their children and neighbors are very much influenced by Homa Therapy. Two
of my workers who were alcoholic and non-vegetarians have stopped consuming since last
two months. One of them is doing regular Om Tryambakam Homa and Agnihotra during
our absence.
All these positive things are due to Yajnya.
