Satsang

Homa Therapy is an ancient science that involves the use of Ayurvedic healing fires to purify the atmosphere and eradicate pollution. The most important healing fire or Homa is Agnihotra, which is practiced by a large number of people all over the world. This simple healing fire is prepared in an inverted copper pyramid and is performed exactly at sunrise and sunset. Utilizing subtle energies emanating from the sun at the time of sunrise and sunset, together with the resonance from the Mantras and the fire itself, a change is created on a subtle level in the atmosphere, neutralizing pollution and radiation. This can be tested with sensitive instruments. Agnihotra and the other healing fires which constitute Homa Therapy also inject nutrients into the atmosphere that promote healthy, abundant plant life. The effects of one Agnihotra fire reach a radius of forty hectares. For the effects to be lasting, in the home or on a farm, the fires should be performed daily, thus creating an energy field. By sitting close to the Agnihotra fire, the person also benefits from its healing energies. The resultant Agnihotra ash can be used to make medicines. Homa Therapy, therefore, has a wide range of uses. Due to the purifying nature of Homa fires, they are used today to heal the environment, for
physical, mental and spiritual healings, in organic gardening/farming, and as therapy, helping people cope with stress, alcoholism, drug addiction, etc. Many people around the world perform Agnihotra at sunrise and sunset in their homes or places of work, and are happier for it. There are countless documented results of the wonderful healings and agricultural experiments using Agnihotra and Homa Therapy.

There are various reasons why we felt it was important to hold a Homa Therapy Conference. There is a greater urgency now in Europe to spread Homa Therapy, as can be seen by the recent outbreaks of Foot and Mouth disease, Mad Cow disease, climatic changes and pollution-related illnesses. We are also acutely aware of the damaging effects of nuclear radiation and the state of Europe’s dying forests. Modern science does not have a solution. However, Homa Therapy does. One main aim of the conference was to unite all those individuals working separately in their respective countries into a team, so that the efforts of promoting Homa Therapy could be coordinated and more effective as a whole. Representatives from different European countries were invited to participate in the first Homa Therapy European Conference, held at Oasis Healing Center (Bhrugu Aranya), in Wysoka, Poland, on May 18th-20th.

The conference was presided over by Dr. Ulrich Berk from Germany, and Parvati and Jarek Bizberg from Poland. The countries represented from Europe were Poland, Germany, Austria, England, Finland, Spain and Sweden. One person, originally Czech, came from the U.S. In all, there were thirty-five people present.

We began with introductions and a talk about the state of Europe today as mentioned above. Next, everyone shared his/her own healing experiences with Agnihotra and Agnihotra ash so that these could be documented. (See “Healing Experiences Reported--Homa Therapy European Conference” on pp.10-16.) We discussed the organization and presentation of Homa Therapy literature and how we could improve on past publications. We are planning more literature that will be published in different languages.

Next, we discussed ways of promoting Homa Therapy/Agnihotra in Europe. We talked about writing articles for magazines and good articles could be translated into different languages for other countries. Websites will be created in all languages and they will include more relevant information on Europe, as well as South America. There has been amazing documented success with Homa Therapy in South America, both agriculturally and with personal healings. We organized people who could give talks on Homa Therapy in other countries of Europe. Some people suggested giving demonstrations of Agnihotra in people’s homes.

In the afternoon, the group separated into two workshops: a Homa Farming/gardening workshop led by Jarek Bizberg (author of Homa Farming for the New Age) and Agnihotra Ash Medicines led by Monika Koch, a German pharmacist. Monika has done excellent research with Agnihotra ash and has created effective healing creams with ash and ghee as well as ash capsules, tablets, eye drops, etc. In her workshop, people had the opportunity to prepare Agnihotra ash medicines.

In the Homa Farming workshop, we went out to the garden, talked about different techniques of farming and learned how to set up a cow dung drying operation, as dried cowdung is one of the ingredients  burned in Homa fires. We also discussed the success of Homa Therapy in eradicating plagues and disease in plants. At the end of these workshops, we all regrouped to share what we had learned.

Two more workshops were held the following day. One was on Homa Therapy as ”therapy”, and the other was on self-sufficiency. The first was facilitated by Parvati, a healer and former teacher who lives at Oasis Healing Centre. We all discussed how Homa Therapy can help children, teenagers and adults deal with stress and difficulties of living in modern society. Stress may manifest itself in asthma, other breathing problems, nervous disorders, violence, etc. Children are more sensitive to atmospheric pollution, which causes imbalances in the body and mind. There is a steady increase in drug use among youth. Young people growing up are bombarded by stimuli and violence on TV, peer group pressure, etc. All this creates disharmony. We all shared ideas on how we can help others realize that there can be a harmonious alternative life-style without drugs, alcohol and violence. Homa centers can be created in the city as well as on a farm. On Homa Farms we can offer alternatives to drugs and alcohol, like nature, gardening and physical work that will release one’s excess energy. Music and creative art activities are wonderful tools to help young people express themselves positively.

The Self-Sufficiency Workshop tackled the problems individuals face in creating an income. We discussed the selling of healing tools such as Lingams, Yantrams, Healing Essences, etc. Some people have had successful ventures growing sprouts, herbs and seedlings to sell in shops, markets and restaurants. On a Homa farm, one could use local resources to create a cottage industry. These could be homemade crafts like clothes making, pottery, weaving, etc. Other ideas included various workshops, vegetarian cooking courses and bread baking. Also suggested were Eco-Tourism and Agro-Tourism.

Today there are Homa farms springing up around the world. On a Homa farm, the people maintain a totally vegetarian diet. No drugs, alcohol, cigarettes or meat products are permitted on the property. A manual for Homa Farms will be compiled on exactly how to start a Homa farm. On Homa farms all the fires are performed and we use only organic farming methods. This manual will include information on all the fires and timings, Mantras, different ways to make ghee (clarified unsalted butter, another ingredient burned), cow dung drying operations, how to care for a cow, other animals which can be on a Homa Farm, how to collect seeds, etc. This manual is to be used ONLY when combined with personal experience obtained by visiting an actual Homa Farm.

We discussed the important subject of Homa Farms Certification. Much like the organic certification that farms receive by recognized authorities, each country could have a center that would certify Homa farms. They would conform to a uniform standard applying to all Homa farms. Many European countries require farms to have a waiting period of 4-5 years before they receive their organic certification. The Homa certification could be acquired in a much shorter time and the public would be made aware that all Homa Farms use organic methods. This would be an incentive for farms to gain Homa status and it would be an excellent means of promoting Homa Therapy, as the products would carry a stamp. Homa farms certification would be done on a yearly basis, thus guaranteeing that the Homa requirements were consistently met.

The idea for creating Homa seed banks was proposed. Organic seeds may become hard to acquire in the future, so it is urgent to begin a network of seed exchange banks in Europe. This will assure the survival of a large variety of seeds, which, because of European Union regulations, are quickly disappearing.

The conference was informed about the Agnihotra Ash Project that is being organized for Ukraine and Belarus. These two countries are experiencing extreme problems due to radiation and pollution. They are extremely poor, so the purpose of the project is to make available large quantities of Agnihotra ash to these countries. We were reminded that ten years ago, one scientist advised taking Agnihotra ash three times a day before meals to neutralize the effects of radiation. Nearly all food in Europe is radioactive, so the ash is most important now.

Parvati then led us through an exercise titled “Conflict Resolution”. We visualized a person with whom we were having conflict and then we thought of that person’s good traits and sent him/her Love and Light. We were advised to practice this every night before sleeping until the conflict is resolved. It may take time, but it works!

Throughout the conference, Hatha Yoga was performed in the morning with Jacob and two hourly intervals per day were devoted to Karma Yoga, which included cleaning and helping in the garden. This was a joyous
activity.

The First Homa Therapy European Conference was a great success. We all felt inspired to begin working together and helping each other. It was a wonderful experience to get together to concentrate on the practicalities of Homa Therapy and the wide range of application it encompasses. The workshops
and shared healing experiences created a detailed picture of all that Homa Therapy has to offer. It was exciting. The next Homa Therapy European conference will be held in the month of September.
Agnihotra is a simple yet very exact science. In Poland, if you are interested in learning Agnihotra / Homa Therapy, we welcome you to contact us directly or learn from a person who teaches Agnihotra according to the correct methods as taught by Fundacja Terapia Homa (Fundacja Agnihotra). We can then guarantee their credibility. Please note that for Agnihotra / Homa Therapy to have the healing effects, it must be performed correctly. Homa Therapy is always taught free of charge.

Agnihotra can be practiced by anyone from any walk of life—doctor, lawyer, housewife, student, teacher, etc., no matter what their religion or philosophy. It will help you to become a better Christian, Hindu, Muslim,
Jew, Buddhist. We have respect for all religions. What we teach is universal.

In 1995, Foundation Agnihotra (now Foundation Homa Therapy) purchased a small farm of 3 ½ hectares in the picturesque foothills of the Tatra Mountains, about sixty kilometers south of Krakow, Poland. Here is the story.

A year earlier, we had been guided in meditation to look for a farm for sale south of Krakow. This was the first place we found, but we continued to look, as it was not immediately for sale.

One night just before Shree Vasant was due to arrive in Poland, we drove through a snow blizzard to this site and then had to walk up the mountain to get to it, as the snow was very deep.

When we arrived, it was nearing sunset, so we walked into the forest that borders the property and did Agnihotra in the open glade in the center of the forest. We asked for a “sign” to confirm our feelings, if it was indeed the right place. As soon as the Mantras were chanted, Parvati saw Devas emerge from the forest and surround the fire. There was light everywhere. As the fire flickered to the end, the Devas retreated back into the trees. At that point, we knew it was the place!

When Shree Vasant arrived a few days later, the first thing He said was, “Where is Jordan?” The property is in the county of Jordanow, which in English is Jordan!

When we took Shree Vasant to the area, He took his shoes off and walked in the snow, saying “Take off your shoes, as the land where we walk upon is holy ground.”

Back then, the farm included an old log house, surrounded by a magical apple/plum orchard. Over the years that followed, since Parvati and I were married on September 9, 1995, there have been many changes. The original log house has been renovated, a wooden healing temple was constructed and inaugurated on September 9 the following year and a small additional log cabin was added for guests. In late 1999, we realized this was not enough to accommodate the increasing number of people wanting to come here. So, we set about constructing a Homa Guesthouse. What began with a modest one-floor plan quickly grew into a three- story wooden chalet.

After much hard work and dedication, plus a series of builders, timely donations and generous loans, we are amazed to look out the window and see the beautiful Homa Guesthouse that has transpired. The chalet-style house is wood from top to bottom. All rooms are panelled with wood. The first floor consists of a large living room/dining area, kitchen, two full bathrooms and four bedrooms. The second floor is mostly completed at this point. There are three toilets, two shower rooms and one full bath. Once the dividing walls are constructed, there will be eight bedrooms, one open public room facing the Tatra mountains and a small meditation room. The third floor, yet to be completed, will be a large open hall for workshops, group seminars and gatherings.
We feel blessed with the opportunity to serve more people here.

There has been much support from people all over the world. To be able to hold the first Homa Therapy European Conference this May felt really miraculous. The construction of the second floor was completed by May 16 and the conference started on 18th !

At our centre, we practice Agnihotra, all the meditation timings, four hours of Yajnya daily minimum and full moon twenty-four-hour Homa. Everyone who comes participates in karma yoga. If they have a particular skill, we encourage them to share it with others. Many people bring their ideas and expertise to share. We have music nights often led by Jacob and Katherine, with singing and musical instruments. Parvati is known to collect people for an evening of Mandala drawing from time to time. Personal healings are given upon request. Our gardens are flourishing with the fires performed in the Agni Shala there and recently we were gifted a heated greenhouse for growing healing and culinary herbs. We are always learning new skills and improving old ones. In a community there are so many lessons to be learned. Still, the healing energies are abundant and we are very happy to be a part of this work.

We welcome you all to visit and experience the healing energies here. 

At the conference, all of us shared our personal experiences with Agnihotra atmosphere and Agnihotra ash in healing. This lively session was continued the next day, as there were so many experiences to report. The following are some of the experiences. In the next issue of Satsang we will have the second installment.

Reiner Szcypior, representing Turkey and Austria:
“Turkey is a poor country and if you need to go to hospital you have to pay for it. Manuela, my wife, distributed Agnihotra ash for healing to the neighbors. One day, one of our neighbors was working on the water system of a motor pipe for cooling. It somehow exploded and he was burned all over the body with boiling water. This happened in summer. His whole upper body, hands, etc. were burned. He went to the doctor and they applied a bandage over the skin.

After two days, he came to us and told us about the accident. He was still in so much pain. None of the medicines worked against the pain. Manu gave him Agnihotra ash powder and said, “Try it. There is no harm in trying.” He applied the ash on just the arm at first and he said after two hours, there was no pain! Then, he used the ash to cover his whole body.

After two hours there was no pain at all. Then after ten days he was completely healed without any allopathic medicine.

The second experience was, when we went to the farm where we get milk.  Manu saw the owner’s father sitting there with a bandage on his lower lip. He was only able to take liquid through a straw and unable to eat any solid food. For three months he had tried medication from the hospital. They had
tried everything--antibiotics, cortisone and even radiation treatment. Manu said to try the ash. After two weeks his son came and asked for more ash.

Manu asked, “Why? What’s wrong?” He replied that nothing was wrong. Everything was healed! He explained that in case the condition appeared again, they wanted to have some ash in their house.

Thomas Habianitsch, representing Austria:
We were living with my mother in Berlin, in an old house. These old houses have dark rooms with only one window. There we had done many Agnihotras and Yajnyas in this house. What happened was that the plants turned their leaves away from the light and toward the Agnihotra pyramid! That was one of my first experiences with the fire.

My daughter Anna had very bad skin problems. She had psoriasis everywhere--the eyes, etc. It was very difficult to heal. We took her to many medical doctors and homeopaths as well. All said, “We don’t know the solution for that.” I started to make Agnihotra medicines using the ash and
ghee. After some months the skin problems were healed.

In India, I was in Tapovan for a long time. There was a great heat wave; for seven months there was no water. The next villages had no water at all. But at Tapovan (Homa Therapy Centre) the well was always full! Two hundred meters away there was no water in the neighbor’s well. People came to our
farm with bottles to fill for their families.

I had one experience on a very small farm in Venezuela where platanos are grown, where I was for three months. I was there doing fires with Roger Subotnik, another volunteer who does Homa Therapy work in Peru. You must
know, there is a lot of pollution in these countries. In the beginning, at this farm there were no birds at all. Then one evening we
were sitting for evening Agnihotra and the sky grew black. Hundreds of birds descended on the farm, just after the fire was lit. When the fires stopped they all left.

In Spain, we had such big potatoes. I have never eaten such wonderful vegetables as those that grow on Homa farms!

Marianne Hilgers, representing Spain:
(Marianne is a professional gardener and gives seminars on biodynamic
gardening in Spain.)

A woman we know came too close to a heating fire and, as she had a synthetic
skirt on, the material stuck to her skin when it caught on fire. She was brought to the hospital and the doctors peeled off the nylon material. She had to stay in hospital for several months. When she returned home, she had to lie on her stomach, as she couldn’t sit at all. One day, she called me. I
told he I would give her Agnihotra ash powder for the wound. After one week,
around the edges of the wound the skin started to grow together again and after one
month she had new skin like a baby! Doctors commented that it was an
indescribable miracle! The woman wanted to buy some ash, but I told her it was free and that she could make it herself.

I was giving a gardening course about five years ago in Nuelva. One of the young people had cut himself and it was completely open, infected. I gave him Agnihotra ash and he put it on three times a day.  After four days it had healed. After a week you could only see a little line. He also wanted to buy ash, but I showed him how to do Agnihotra. He is still doing it.

Parvati, representing Poland (from Bhrugu Aranya) :
The first  thing I would like to share is my own healing. I first started Agnihotra when I was twenty-five years old. I had had chronic asthma since I was about eleven.  It was very severe from the time I was around twenty years old. If I took an apartment I had to know someone else living in the building, who could drive me to the hospital when I had an attack. The attacks often came in the
middle of the night, early morning. I would have to be given breathing treatments and shots of epinephrine. I think my asthma was
pollution-related. So, I learned about Agnihotra and started it. My landlady at the time wouldn’t let me do it in the house, so I did the fires underneath the porch outside. After two weeks my asthma was completely
healed. I have no asthma at all now, so that was really miraculous.

I was working at the time as a teacher with troubled, often hyperactive children in the Head Start program in U.S. These children never sat still for more than thirty seconds at a time. When they ate lunch, they did it dancing or moving around. I had recently started doing Agnihotra and very excited about its effects, so I asked if I could bring some of the most difficult children home with me. On the way home, they were wild. I had to keep them from running into the street and fighting with each other. They were jumping around the apartment. Then I lit the Agnihotra fire and these children whom I had never seen sit still, sat together for twenty minutes in total peace. I noticed their breathing changed, slowed down. I had them for about an hour afterwards and
they were very nice and sweet to each other, even after the fire went out. I watched in amazement the changes in these children and was convinced that Agnihotra was really what they needed. That is when the idea for the children’s program came (Yoga and Meditation for Children).

Just last week, we had a young family here from Warsaw. They have two children, ages four and seven. The older one had brain damage, so was not physically coordinated and could not communicate. He easily became disturbed by outside stimuli. The younger child is normal, though extremely active! The parents just wanted to be in a pastoral environment with vegetarian diet. I
don’t think they necessarily wanted to do Agnihotra themselves, though they sat for it quite enthusiastically. The children’s reaction to Agnihotra was amazing. The children often fell asleep during the fire. They both would sleep soundly for twelve hours at night! Their mother claimed that they never slept long and that they often wouldn’t sleep before eleven o’clock at night. While they were visiting, evening Agnihotra was at about 8 P.M. so the parents were really amazed. It was the first time ever that the children had slept soundly for so long a time. After three days here, the parents asked to buy Agnihotra supplies and said, “We want to do this at home!”

I was in South America several months ago and a lot of healings have taken place there.
One couple came to me. They were crying when they spoke, very humble. They
said that before beginning practice of Agnihotra, the husband had beaten his wife and was very angry all the time. She suffered greatly. Then she met someone and was introduced to the fires. She started performing the fires in her own home. After doing Agnihotra, her husband completely changed. He not only stopped abusing his wife, but he now treats her with love, respect and gentleness. Both practice Agnihotra regularly. I was really touched by the care and love that I felt from them. They seemed so harmonious and
peaceful with each other. There were many stories there.

Once, Jarek and I went to Bydgoszcz, in Poland, to do a workshop. There, a friend sent us to meet a veterinarian who was recommending people to get Agnihotra ash
for their animals with skin problems. His patients, shi tsu dogs, had very bad skin problems that caused them a lot of pain. The normal method of cure with allopathic medication took one month to heal. He said that with Agnihotra ash, the dogs’ skin healed within twenty-four to twenty-eight hours. The other thing he noticed was that if the dogs who were treated with the ash also lived in a home where Agnihotra was done, their skin condition healed even faster than by just using the ash. In other words, the ash alone was much quicker healing the skin than his regular medicines and with Agnihotra atmosphere in the home, the ash worked even faster! When people came with their animals he told them to contact these other people
whose dog he usually treated, to get some of this ash for them. The amazing thing was that he himself had never experienced Agnihotra and had no idea what it was! He just knew that it worked!

Magdalena Nowakowska, Poland:
A friend of mine, a single mother bringing up two boys, was having a lot of problems with them as they entered their teenage years. They came back from school, not able to learn anything, and stayed out late at night, smoking, drinking, having sex, etc. She was very worried. So, she started performing
Agnihotra every day in her home and there was a change in the boys. The older boy in particular was affected. When he sat for Agnihotra, he was much more peaceful and his behavior changed. When he doesn’t sit for Agnihotra, he switches back to his old behavior. When he is there, everything is fine. During Easter break, the boys wanted to quarrel, but there was such a good energy in the home that they couldn’t quarrel and ended up laughing about it.

My friend’s health also improved. She had an abscess in the breast and after doing Agnihotra for three or four times, it disappeared. She said she had had this abscess for years and it just disappeared.

I had a problem with my tendon in my leg for one and a half years. I couldn’t walk well.
I had no results that lasted.  Massage helped, but that only lasted one week; then, again I couldn’t walk and it would swell. After practicing Agnihotra, my leg is healed. I can walk a lot. I can walk to work and come back and
everything is fine.

One experience I had after practicing breathing exercises I couldn’t sleep. I suffered from a kind of crisis. For four months I slept two to three hours a day. I had to work to earn my living, obviously. So, I came here and had this healing and I started sleeping. Parvati told me to do Agnihotra in my own
home and I did. First, I started doing it every third day and then, every second day and finally now I do it every day. I can sleep with no problem now.

Monika Koch, representing Germany:
(Monika is a pharmacist by trade and has done extensive work developing Agnihotra Ash medicines for all ailments. She has produced Agnihotra Ash creams, ointments, suppositories, eye drops and even tablets. She gives seminars on Agnihotra Ash Medicines.)

When we started practicing Agnihotra in 1974, we immediately noticed the healing qualities of this fire itself, because only by performing Agnihotra we noticed that the children got a lot more balanced. Their father, who was a teacher, would be nervous after teaching and got much more quiet
than before, more balanced. So we immediately experienced the changes.

Not only our children got balanced,  but other people also asked us for help. A friend of mine had a daughter who had for three years never slept a single night all the way through. She was always awakening with bad dreams, crying. The mother was earnestly concerned about the problems. Since our
children were so calm, she decided to bring her child for Agnihotra. So, this girl came for evening Agnihotra and that same night slept the whole night through with no problems! Always when this girl came, she could sleep all through the night.

We also applied the ash for physical healing, for skin fungus of the feet. We also used Agnihotra ash as powder for insect bites and they healed very quickly. Also in the case of burns, it created a quick, beautiful cure.

More and more people had experiences with the ash, so the next step was to take it also internally, because such a healing quality could also help in many cases internally.

From many, many cases I would like to tell about a few special cases. For example, I myself had developed a female problem. The doctor I consulted said I had polyps and I should have an immediate operation, it was so urgent. I said that I preferred to take some time first to make a test. I tried a specific herb which I mixed with Agnihotra ash and drank all the time only this whenever I was thirsty. I also applied compresses with
this herb and ash. For three or four weeks, I did this. Afterwards, I decided to consult a different physician who had never seen me before. He said everything is beautiful. I said I may have polyps and the doctor said absolutely everything was fine, no trace of any such problem.

As we noticed so many different healings, we talked about the phenomenon with a natural healer who was doing kirlian photos to check how a disease was cured or not cured. He wanted to take a trial to see what energies are going on before Agnihotra, during and after the fire, and how it could help to cure diseases. We journeyed to his place, as he was quite far away.

He said, “Now we will do a fire.” It wasn’t Agnihotra time, so we had a problem. Since it wasn’t possible to be there for Agnihotra, we decided at least to test it with Vyahruti Homa fire. This fire can be done anytime,
though it is not as powerful as Agnihotra. Vyahruti Homa is only done in addition to Agnihotra sunrise and sunset fire, never in place of it. We made kirlian photos of the feet and the hands first; then we did Vyahruti Homa and took another kirlian photo afterward of the same persons. The person who had been driving the car on this long trip had on his right leg a real lack of energy. In kirlian photography you can see the energies of the body and also where there is a lack of energy. Actually, certain energy deficiencies correspond to certain diseases. So, the right leg of the driver was lacking energy. We did the fire and ten minutes after he made photos again. The results were amazing. For example, the first photo of the driver’s legs  had shown a lack of energy; in the second photo, after having done the fire, the complete corona was there again after ten minutes. The healer said it was impossible to regain such complete corona after ten minutes. The other coronas were also much stronger. It could really be seen that the energy body was increased so much. This was only after Vyarhuti Homa!

Agnihotra helps the energy body to become restored. We notice this with plants and animals as well. For example, there was a farmer we knew who had cows. One cow had a disease on its back where all the skin had left and everything was open. No one could help, including the veterinarian. The
second, more serious problem was that the same disease started on the hands of the farmer. He asked, “Do you know anything? The doctors cannot do anything and it is always getting worse.” So, we powdered Agnihotra ash and tried to approach the cow.  She tried to kick us, because she was in such pain and we thought she was perhaps afraid someone would touch her painful area
of skin. Somehow we tried from a distance to put ash on her. The very next day we returned to do the same thing and she saw us coming. As far as her chain permitted, she came to us and presented her back to us to
apply the ash! The same cow who wanted to kick us, came toward us as if asking us to help her. We did this several times and very quickly it was healed. Then the man said he would now try it on his hand and it was healed as well, very quickly.

He said on the farm they had another problem with another cow who would not eat any longer. She had no disease, she just would
not eat. If this continued she would have to be slaughtered. So, we had the idea that perhaps Agnihotra fire itself would help. We sat on a pile of hay and performed Agnihotra. After Agnihotra, we began feeding the cow the hay. This cow got such an appetite, she ate everything we gave her! We did
nothing other than do Agnihotra there. She was so hungry. We continued this for several days and the cow was really recovering, eating normally. Meanwhile, the farmer noticed something else. As we performed Agnihotra every night in the cow shed, the milk of the cow had more fat content in it
and the quality was better. He said that we should continue it as all cows were benefiting from the fire. It was near to our town in Germany, but we had to teach them Agnihotra as we couldn’t continue to come there every day to perform the fires! This was really an example of how Agnihotra does not depend on whether someone believes in the fire or expects any kind of healing from it for it to work. It is not a reaction of the mind. A cow doesn’t think. Also, this cow wanted initially to kick us out, so she was also not expecting healing. We can clearly see that wherever Agnihotra and the ash are, there is cure of diseases but also of the surroundings. These are only a very few of the examples of healings.

There was one old man who had cancer. He had great problems with bleeding and with pain, but doctors didn’t want to operate because of his age. We made Agnihotra ash suppositories for this man and he only applied these suppositories three times a day. The bleeding stopped and the pain
subsided. He went back to completely normal life for many years and eventually died of a totally different illness.

Another old man recently came with a very similar problem with bleeding and pain as well. He was in great danger for surgery also. I told him to take the ash three or four times daily. He started with three times a day ½ teaspoon of Agnihotra ash. On the third day the bleeding stopped and the pain was gone; everything went back to normal. He couldn’t believe it. He thought perhaps it happened only by chance and tomorrow it would come back. Still he continued to improve and the bleeding and pain never came back. I think it seems many elderly people get these things and it could really help many of them to solve these problems.
(Monika explained that it is a simple procedure to make Agnihotra ash suppositories by mixing pure Agnihotra ash and ghee together and keeping it in the refrigerator. Then, when it is cold, form it into suppositories. You
can cut it with a knife and form it easily.)
