Agnihotra Cow Dung
Agnihotra is the simplest fire technique in Homa Therapy. It underlies all other methods of Homa Therapy and follows the principle:
“Heal the atmosphere and the atmosphere will heal you.”
Agnihotra is performed exactly at sunrise and sunset. Traditionally, a pyramid-shaped copper pot is used, in which the cow dung is smoked.
Although this simple technique only takes about ten minutes in the morning and evening, the effects are quite astonishing: our atmosphere is purified on various levels, making us calmer and more balanced, plants thrive wonderfully and are more resistant to all kinds of diseases. Animals feel comfortable and we help to cleanse the environment within a certain radius.
Dried cow dung is used for the Agnihotra fire.
In all ancient cultures, whether among the Native Americans of North or South America, in Scandinavia, Eastern or Western Europe, Africa, or Asia, cow dung is regarded as a medicinal substance with strong disinfectant and detoxifying effects.
Through the Agnihotra process, a combination of cow dung, ghee, and rice forms, which on the one hand rises into the atmosphere and neutralizes negative influences, and on the other hand provides nourishment for all life. Crop yields increase and Mother Earth comes back into harmony with the cosmos.
The cow dung comes from horned cows.
