EFFECT OF AGNIHOTRA ON PLANT:-
Plants develop leaf veins that are cylindrical and larger than normal.
7
EFFECT OF AGNIHOTRA ON SOIL:-
Consideration of the moon’s phases and rhythms, with which seeds are sown and
planting is done also support the success of homa farming.

All in all, the Homa applications are a practical contribution to
P
environmental protection because they purify the atmosphere and
H
improve the quality of air, water, and soil. The effects of so-called O
subtle (vital) forces and energies on plants, as well as on humans and T
animals, could easily be proven if scientists pay attention to them. O

DIRECT USE OF AGNIHOTRA ASH IN AGRICULTURE:-
Seeds and bulbs should soak in this solution for 30-40 minutes. This strengthens the
germinating plant and makes it more resistant to pests.
Like cow dung, cow urine has antibacterial effects and provides a protective coating
around the seeds and bulbs
After this time of treatment, seeds are spread on filter paper, or other absorbent paper,
to dry. They should be dry enough to spread, but moist enough so that the core of the
seed doesn’t dryout. Bulbs may be planted immediately after being treated with the
solution.
13
FERTILIZERS
14
PLANT NUTRIENT
SOLUTION
4 tablespoons of Agnihotra
ash and up to 4 tablespoons of
pulverized, dried cow dung
are stirred in approximately 5
litres of water and then applied
to plants.
15
SPRAY SOLUTION
This spray solution is left standing for 3 days and then filtered through a fine
screen before it is used to protect plants against pests and diseases.
A spray solution can also be made from certain fern blossoms, in which approximately
150 grams of the blossoms, mixed with 2 litres of water and 2 tablespoons of
Agnihotra ash, are left standing to ferment for 7-10 days
Filtered through a narrow-meshed screen and then finally distributed on the plants with
a sprayer, this helps keep away pests such as snails.

MATERIALS REQUIRED FOR CONDUCT AGNIHOTRA and :-
Copper pyramid of fixed size
Ingredients (dried cow dung, cow’s ghee, brown rice)
Mantra (vibrations)
Timesheet exact to the second of sunrise/sunset and watch
19
AGNIHOTRA MANTRA AT SUNRISE:-
Sooryáya Swáhá Sooryáya Idam Na Mama
Prajápataye Swáhá Prajápataye Idam Na Mama
(Put brown rice mixed with ghee into the fire at each “swaha”)
Apply a little Ghee to a small piece of cow dung and light it. Insert this lighted piece of cow dung
in the middle of the pyramid.
Soon all the dung in the pyramid will catch fire. You may use a hand fan to blow the air and help
the flame. However, do not blow on the fire so as to avoid bacteria from the mouth affecting the
fire.
You take a few grains of rice in a dish or your left palm and apply a few drops of ghee to them.
22
Exactly at sunrise utter the first Mantra and after the word SWAHA add a few grains of rice (as
little as you can hold in the pinch of your fingers will suffice) to the fire.
Utter the second Mantra and after the word SWAHA add a few grains of rice to the fire.
This completes morning Agnihotra.
At sunset do the same by using evening Mantras. This completes evening Agnihotra
After each Agnihotra try to spare as many minutes as you can for meditation. You can sit at least
till the fire gets extinguished itself
Just before the next Agnihotra collect the ash and keep it in a glass or earthen container. It can
be used for plants or making folk medicines
23
PRECAUTIONS AF AGNIHOTRA FARMING:-
Only whole Kernel rice is used. Best when brown rice is used.
24
LIMITATIONS OF AGNIHOTRA FARMING:-
The spray solution must be sprayed little before flowering and later at
maturity stage.
25
SOME OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE OF AGNIHOTRA IN INDIA:-
TURMERIC &PUMPKIN
(Farm of Shri Arul Kartikeyan Pollachi , Dist: Coimbatore, TN)
Arul Kartikeyan is a bio-dynamic farmer in Coimbatore district. The whole
turmeric crop was affected by an insect infestation. After only one spray treatment
with Agnihotra ash water solution, the disease on the leaves cleared up completely.
The pumpkin crop was also heavily infested with insects. Again, after only one
spray with Agnihotra ash water solution, a large population of predator insects
appeared, bringing the situation under control.
26
COCONUT
(Farm of Shri Chinnaswamy Devansapudur, Pollachi, Dist:Coimbatore, TN)
Outbreak of nut infesting eriophyid mite in coconut plantations of South India
in 1999. First time reported in any Asian country. Extremely small sized fruits. Heavy
crop losses due to immature nut fall. After 6 months treatment with Homa Therapy
on the Chinnaswami farm, there was a complete cessation of falling immature nuts.
27
RICE
(Farm of Shri Soma Sundaram Pollachi, Dist:Coimbatore, TN)
With use of Homa Therapy techniques, one month after planting, rice
is completely free of disease.
Shri Sundaram reports that this is the best result he has seen since his
childhood. Taste is excellent.
28
WHEAT & BARLEY
(Farm of Shri Bhagwan Singh
Jhajhar, Dist:Navalgarh, Rajasthan)
Shri Bhagwan Singh
reports an excellent result with
both wheat and barley crops. Also
the farmers on the neighbouring
farms were very happy as the
Agnihotra and Homa Therapy
effect extended onto their farms
as well.
29
MILLET
("Tapovan", farm of Shri Abhay
V. Paranjpe, Tal: Parola,
Dist: Jalgaon, Maharashtra)
Many farms in Jalgaon
district, Maharashtra, suffered
extensive losses of the millet crop
due to an infestation of stem
borer.
Millet in Tapovan farm
where Agnihotra and Homa
Therapy techniques are practised ,
was completely free of any insect
problem.
30
COTTON
("Tapovan", farm of Shri Abhay V. Paranjpe Tal: Parola, Dist: Jalgaon, Maharashtra)
Cotton farms in Jalgaon district Maharashtra, use heavy doses of agro-
chemicals. Plants are large and green but with very few cotton bolls due to insect
attack .
Cotton plants in Tapovan farm where Agnihotra and Homa Therapy is
practised, are much smaller but heavily laden with cotton bolls .
31
TOMATO
(Farm of Shri Dhanalal Dist:Jaipur, Rajasthan)
The first planting of tomato on the Dhanalal farm was heavily
infested with tomato borer. All the farms in the area were infested. Heavy doses of
chemical insecticide were needed 3 times per week. After 2 weeks treatment with
Homa Therapy there was 70% improvement in crop.
Some severely diseased plants which were treated individually with Homa ash
gave extraordinarily high yields. The subsequent plantings after beginning Homa
Therapy treatment were not infested at all.
32
SOYA BEAN
(Farm of Prestige Foods Pvt Ltd Dewas, Dist:Indore, MP)
Using agro-chemicals the yield from the Prestige farm in year 2000 was 350 kg
per hectare.

was 2100 kg per hectare without irrigation.
Other farms in the area averaged 700 to 800 kg per hectare. Nearest best result
was 1200 kg per hectare.
Beans from Prestige farm were of superior colour. Roots of the plants from the
Prestige farm bore twice the number of nitrogen-fixing nodules as those from the
neighbouring farm.
33
VANILLA
(Farm of Shri Abhay Mutalik Desai Sutagatti, Dist:Belgaum, Karnataka)
Shri Desai reports that his first ever vanilla produce (1999-2000)

was 2.91%, the highest in this growing season
