Yagya, Hawan, Homa, or Havan (Fire Ritual) is a sacred ritual performed in a temple or home to invoke the Divine by chanting mantras and paying an offering to the fire god Agni. It’s an age-old Hindu ritual that creates a revitalizing, rejuvenating, and purifying effect on both the devotee who performs as well as on the environment.

 

Negative energies are dispelled and the protective shield is built around the house, this is even proved by science that havan kills the harmful bacteria from the surrounding. One should do havan to purify the atmosphere, for that we need to pay an offering to the fire with something aromatic, sweet, curative, and nourishing.
