 The Power of Mantras HAVAN YAGNA
A mantra is a mystic formula divinely revealed in the hearts of
the enlightened seers, and later recorded in the Vedas.
A Guide and Benefits
Sound holds a key place in Hindu thought. Some writers
believe that it preceded the creation of the universe, and its
vibrations are thought to bind the atoms of the world.

Mantras are sacred syllables that encapsulate particular forms

of cosmic power (shakti).

All Mantras are sacred and spiritually charged. By chanting a

mantra repeatedly with love and devotion a person can benefit
tremendously. He develops a pure mind which enables him to
realize God.

Each mantra has a presiding deity. For example the Gayatri

mantra is dedicated to Surya Narayan and the Maha
Mrityunjaya Mantra to Lord Shiva. Compiled by:
Mantra means that which has to be repeated and understood.
Pandit Ram Hardowar
The word mantra is derived from two Sanskrit words:
April 26, 2007
Man—to repeat in the mind (manana); and
Tra—to protect or to free from .

Therefore, the word mantra, in it’s most literal sense, means to

free from the mind.

Mantras accomplish many wondrous deeds simply by correctly

chanting them with steadfast devotion. Mantras also purify
one's consciousness, give spiritual enlightenment, and
connects one with the Supreme.

Hindus also believe that a mantra received from a Saint or

Guru is far more effective than mantras selected on your own.

Dedication and
Thanks
This Havan manual is dedicated to my loving parents
Dharmacharya Pandit Hardowar Panday and Mataji

Also many thanks to my Dharam Patni Radhaji and my God

Roshanji:
Guruji, How should I sit while doing Japa?
Guruji:
There are many basic yoga postures which are recommended during
meditation and chanting. Some of the most common asanas are
sukh-asana and padma-asana. You will have to experiment and
determine which is the most convenient posture for you. During
chanting, you should maintain a steady posture, control breathing,
and focus your mind on your Ishta Deva.
Roshanji:
O revered Guruji, describe to me the proper way to use the mala.
Guruji:
Once in your proper asana, the mala should be held in your right
hand, elevated so it does not hang below the navel. Keep the hand
near the heart or the chin. The mala must not be visible to you or to
others. Cover it with a clean piece of cloth. Use the middle finger and
the thumb of the right hand to roll the beads. The use of the index
finger is prohibited. Do not cross the meru (the center bead) while
rolling the beads. Turn back when you come to the meru, if you wish
to continue chanting.
Roshan:
Guruji, If I do not have a mala, can I still chant?
Guruji: Yes. You can count with the lines on your fingers. If you find
this difficult, then you can chant without counting. When the mind
wanders, do the Japa aloud, or whisper the Mantra for some time and
come back to mental Japa again as soon as possible.
When you repeat the Mantra, have the feeling or mental attitude that
the Lord is seated in your heart, that purity or Sattva is flowing from
the Lord into your mind, that the Mantra is purifying your heart,
destroying desires, cravings and evil thoughts.
Do not do the Japa in a hurried manner. Do it slowly with feeling, one-
pointedness of mind and steadfast devotion.
Roshanji:
Thank you Guruji. I think this was my most enlightening journey to
Pennsylvania.
Guruji:
You are welcome. May the blessings of Lord Shiva always be with
you.
80
Roshanji:
Guruji, How many times should I chant my Mantra?
Guruji:
You should chant your mantra at least 108 times, which is
equivalent to one round on your mala. As you know, the number
108 is very auspicious, and synchronizes with life itself. We breathe
10,800 times per day; this number is used to arrive at the number of
beads in the mala.
If you have more time then you can do as many rounds within your
comfort zone; of course the more repetitions of mantras, the greater
the benefits.
Roshanji:
Guruji, when is the best time to chant?
Guruji:
Of course, the best time of day is during Brahma Muhurta which is
from 3 AM to 6 AM .
Roshanji:
Guruji, What happens if it is not convenient for me to chant during
Brahma Muhurta?
Guruji:
You can chant anytime during the day at your convenience;
however, Brahma Muhurta yields the best results. Chanting is better
than no chanting regardless of time. Face east during the morning,
north during midday, and west during the evening. This enhances
the efficacy of the Japa.
Roshanji:
Guruji, Where should I sit to do Jap?
Guruji:
Sit on a deer skin or rug in a separate meditation room or in any
suitable place in your home or a Mandir. The deer skin conserves
body-electricity and reduces heat transfer.

Foreword
All parents should be proud of their heritage
and most of all it is incumbent upon them to
instill these virtues into their children. Faith,
devotion and the love for God are some of the
core values to be shared with our young
impressionable minds. These values are best
taught when the entire family unit is involved in performing the same activity in an
atmosphere of unity and love.
Shri Surya Narayan Mandir is blessed to have Pt. Ram Hardowar, the son of our
Founder; Dharmacharya Pandit Hardowar Panday. Pt. Ram has put together this
Havan primer for every Hindu family. Using this book, the entire family can sit
together and perform a complete Havan ceremony as recommended by the Vedas.
These prayers and chants (all transliterated) along with their meaning will deepen the
understanding and strengthen the faith of every Hindu. Panditji has carefully selected
a collection of the most important Mantras/Chants to suit even the busiest individual
without sacrificing the significant benefits derived from a Havan Yajna. It is my
sincere hope that this book will motivate and inspire all to continue to chant and
perform Havan Yajnas using the basic mantras described.
Many thanks to Panditji Ram for taking time out of his busy schedule to put this
manual together.

The clouds are formed in the first layer only. The factors
responsible for the formation of clouds are ( i ) the presence of
water vapors in the air, (ii ) temperature, (iii) the pressure of
air, (iv) the number, size and shape of dust particles and (v)
the particles of smoke.
In order to make the clouds pure and nourishing, it is best to
get the smoke of yajna enter into them. This is why in ancient
times, when the Agnihotra and yajnas were performed in
large numbers, the rains were pure and full of vitality and
hence the grains and herbs were also full of these qualities. It
is the subtle part of the grains that nourishes the mind.
Therefore, there should be no surprise, if the minds of the
habitants of the ancient culture of yajna, too would have been
endowed with purity and goodness. The method, by which
these divinely inspired persons, devoted to yajna, changed
themselves into Devatas and brought heaven on earth, is with
us as their decendants even today.
Today, as the environment is getting more and more
contaminated and polluted, the need for Havan-Yajna has
increased much more as compared to the past. Polluted
atmosphere pollutes the mind and the body of all living
creatures. As a result, diseases, anxiety and aggression are
spreading everywhere. The only effective scientific solution to
this problem has appeared in the form of Havan. Continual
performance of Havan-Yajna, decreases tamasic qualities and
increases sattvic qualities .
Friends, here is an opportunity for each and every one of us to
make a difference in our world. Perform Havan Yajna and
procure peace & happiness in our homes, villages , cities,
country and indeed the entire universe.
INTRODUCTION
Havan Yagna is as ancient as this
world, for it is prescribed in the oldest
of texts-the Vedas.
In its physical form, Havan Yagna is a
devotional offering of havan samaagri
(herbal preparations and food) in the
fire accompanied by the chanting of
Vedic mantras. This is only the outer
physical process or ritual of Yagna,
which has deep scientific importance
and beneficial effects. Havan Yagna is
also known as
Havan, Homam or Agnihotra.
Agni, the fire god, is the most revered Pt.Ram Hardowar
deity of the Vedas, based on the number of mantras dedicated to
Him. Agni is the link between man and God. When offerings are
made into the fire, Agni Deva acts as the messenger and takes the
offerings to the respective Deities, in much the same way a
mailman will deliver a properly addressed envelope to its
destination. It is our belief that all things, even the Devatas, have
Agni present within them. He is the eternal witness, or saakshi, to
all activities. It is like the vowel “A” in all letters, which remains
hidden in every sound uttered, showing Agni’s all-pervading
presence.
The color of fire is the color of Sanatan Dharma; saffron
represents the destruction of all negative vibrations and the
sustenance of purity. Indra, Surya, and Agni are the three main
deities of the Vedic era; while Indra controls the air, and Surya the
sky, Agni is the presiding deity of the Earth.
No activity is sanctioned without the presence of the Fire God.
When Prabhu Shri Ram established friendship with Sugriva, it
was the fire that witnessed their friendship. When Raja Dasratha
wanted to be blessed with sons, it was Agni Deva who fulfilled his
wishes. Even today, no wedding is complete without the blessings
of Agni Devata; in fact, it is the Fire God that unites the two jivas.
2
He is also the eternal protector, as demonstrated when Lord
Rama requested Agni Deva to keep Mata Sita safely in his care
until Ravana was defeated.
Agni is invoked in different forms: for pujas, he is referred to as
Vaishwanar; for weddings, he is called Yojak; for shraddas, he is
called Kraabya; and for cooking at home, he is called
Grihapaatra.
The meaning of Yagna is not only confined to the performance of
Havan. It has a much wider and deeper meaning. The word
Yagna is derived from the Sanskrit verb Yaj, which has a three-
fold meaning: worship of deities (deva-puja), unity (sangati
karana) and charity (daana). The philosophy of Yagna teaches
one to exist in harmony in our society. This lifestyle promotes
and protects higher human values and is indeed the basis of an
ideal human culture.
The performance of Havan Yagna beautifully combines these
two aspects (Agni & Yajna) into a ritual which purifies the
individual mind, protects families, and brings harmony to the
entire society.
May the blessings of Agni Devata be with all.
Sita Ram.
Pt. Ram Hardowar.

The first advantage of Havan is the purification of air. The air
surrounding the yajna, gets hot, becomes light due to the high
temperature of the fire and rises up. The evacuated region is filled
by the fresh air drawn from the surroundings. This air is thus
sterilized due to the high temperature of the fire.
Sunrays of different colors have different wavelengths and hence
their effect on the germs also differs. An experiment was done to
see this effect, the inner walls of several canisters were painted
with different colors and they were kept in such a room where a
large number of mosquitoes were present. At the time of sunrise,
lids were placed on all the canisters with the mosquitoes inside.
When the lids were removed in the evening, it was found that the
number of mosquitoes was least in the canister which was painted
with orange color. The color of fire is also orange. Thus the utility
of Agnihotra and its effect becomes clear.
Scientists have discovered two types of materials for destroying
germs. They are (i) antiseptics and (ii) disinfectants. The materials
in the first category protect human beings from germs but do not
kill the latter. The materials of the second category directly kill the
germs. Some materials have both of these properties, depending
on their concentration.
Havan gas is free from this defect. Even if there is some harmful
portion, it is destroyed by the vapors of cow ghee and is made
beneficial. The use of pure cow ghee cannot be over emphasized.
There are two layers of air in the atmosphere. The first one ranges
up to six miles from the surface of the earth and the second one
goes up to just over 600 miles.
Minute particles have different shapes in natural form. The
curvature of particles decreases as the subtlety increases i.e. as
the particle size decreases their chemical activity increases. In
this category of materials, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves etc are
used in very high quality Havan samagri. The fragrant oils (cow
ghee) in the Havan samagri catches fire easily; and after
vaporization, it expands considerably. Thus, its effect also
becomes extensive.
Several compounds have been found in the vapors of Havan
samagri. Some of these, e.g., aldehydes, amines, phenols, etc
have already been identified. Salted materials are prohibited for
use in the preparation of samagri, because salt (which is sodium
chloride) decomposes to produce chlorine gas. The latter is as
harmful to the human beings as it is to the bacteria. Cow ghee is
used in the havan, in specific quantity. This has two advantages:
first, it ignites the fire and controls its temperature, and second,
after conversion into the vapor state it surrounds the minute
particles of the Havan samagri and produces negative charges
on them.

Havan Yajna
– Scientific Explanation -
Performance of Havan Yajna recommended by the Vedas, is perhaps
one of the most powerful tools available for MAN’S wellbeing and
happiness. In Bhagwad Gita Lord Shri Krishna Says the following of
Yajna .
“Yagyad bhavati parjanyah, yagya karma samud bhava.” Gita 3/14
Yajna is based on prescribed action as described in the Vedas, from
yajna rain comes and, from rain comes food which is converted into
energy that maintains life.
In order to understand Havan Yajna scientifically; we need to
understand the effect of some of the following.
(1) Shapes of “yajna (havan) kuñd” (the vessel for preserving the
oblatory fire);
(2) The selection of“samidhas” (wood or fuel for yajna) and their
specific combustion properties;
(3) Correct pronunciation of mantras;
(4) The time of havan yajna; and
(5) The analysis of “Havan samagri” (the articles for oblation).
The heat and light that are generated by the combustion of samidhas
and the Havan samagri in the kuñdas of different sizes and shapes give
rise to various changes in the environment. This fact has been verified by
scientific experiments. There occurs a distinct change in the intensity of
heat and the quality of fire produced by the change in the samidha. For
example, one can easily distinguish between the quality of fire
produced by different types of dhoop.
The physical properties of materials are dependent on their physical
state (solid, liquid, gas). Solid materials have a less chance of interaction
or mixing with that of the other materials. However, if the materials are
transformed into a more subtle state e.g., vapor or gaseous state, the
probability of interaction between the constituents of the two types of
materials increases.
 “OM Hreem Ghrini Surya Aditya OM”
Healing by Manta Chanting
The chanting of Om has now received widespread
recognition. It is used by non-Hindus throughout the
western world. Mantras can be used to treat tension and
many other diseases of the mind and body.
The BSS research center in Haridwar, India is currently
carrying out extensive experiments on 'mantra shakti' and
its healing power. The result of these experiments are used
to verify that Mantra chanting with devotion can be used
scientifically for healing and environmental cleansing.
Over the last 20 years of my practice as a Priest, I have
personally experienced the tremendous and sometimes
instantaneous results mantra chanting has on myself and
other devotees. The Guru mantra, Gayatri and Maha-
Mrtyunjaya mantra among others brings great benefits if
chanted regularly with faith and devotion.

The Benefits of Mantra Chanting
"Mananaat traayate iti mantraha"
(That which uplifts by constant repetition is a Mantra.)
A mantra is a mystic formula put together by the Rishis and
Munis through divine inspiration for the benefit of humanity.
Mantras are found in the Vedas and Upanishads.
Sound From Mantra Chanting Is Power
It is a proven fact that the vibration of Mantra chanting can
lift the believer towards an understanding of the higher
(absolute) self.
Different sounds have different effects on human psyche. A
soft sound of wind rustling through leaves soothes our
nerves, the musical note of running stream enchants our
heart; while thunders may cause awe and fear.
In the same way, sacred utterances or chanting of Sanskrit
Mantras provide us with the power to attain our goals and lift
ourselves from the ordinary to the higher level of
consciousness. They give us the power to cure diseases; ward
off evils; gain wealth and ultimately attain liberation.
Origin of Mantras
As mentioned earlier, Mantras are from the Vedas. The
teachings of the Vedas consist of various Mantric chants or
hymns cognized by different Seers or Rishis through divine
revelation. All Mantras begin with Om - the primordial sound,
the sound that is said to have its origin at the time of the
creation of the universe.
Om: The Beginning & the End
Om is the most important of all mantras. The most symbolic
name of GOD, the representation of the Supreme Brahman.
All mantras generally begin and sometimes also end with
Om. For example the very powerful Mantra dedicated to
Surya Narayan Bhagwan.
INSTRUCTIONS: All devotees now kneel down to the Lotus like feet of — [ma =d/ay tvse kpidRne 9ydVIray
the Lord, in complete surrender, seeking His mercy.

GANESHA - The God of Wisdom.
Om Ajam Nirvikalpam Niraakaaramakam,
Niranand Mananda Madvaita Purnam.
Param Nirgunam Nirvishaysham Nireeham,
Param Brahma Roopam Ganesham Bhajayham.
MEANING: O Lord, thou art unborn, absolute and formless, thou art
bliss and indeed beyond bliss itself. Thou art the one and
the infinite, who is the supreme, without differentiation
or desires. To you, we offer our salutations.
Om Gunaa Teeta Maanam Chidananda Roopam,
Chidabhaasakam Sarvagam Gyaan Gamyam.
Muni Dhyaiyamaa Kasharoopam Paresham,
Param Brahmaroopam Ganesham Bhajayham.
MEANING: Thy nature is beyond attributes. Thou art the embodiment
of intelligence and bliss, the effulgent Spirit, the
all-pervading, the goal of knowledge. Thou art the object of
meditation to the sages, formless and omnipresent like
ether. Thou art the supreme Lord, the supreme Brahman.
To thee, O Lord , do we offer our worship.
GANESHA - The Lord of the intellect, is the favorite child
of the Divine Mother and is the favorite Deity of all
children.
The name of Ganesha is formed by bringing together the
four Beejaakahyaras: Ga, Na, E and Sa.
Ga means Wisdom; Na means that which
creates stability; E means the existing creatures,
and Sa means Energy. Ganesa, therefore, means
that Energy which generates the wisdom of
existing creatures and is the cause of existence and
stability for all.
