PAPAYAS

“I want to share an experience which I had with the Agnihotra ash. I went to visit my mother and she told me that she was going to cut the male papaya tree in her garden because it was not giving anything. I said, 'Mom don’t cut the tree, I’ll bring some Agnihotra ash, which we will put around  the tree and let’s see what happens. I will also leave you a bag of Agnihotra ash so you can continuously apply ash.  After some time my Mom called me happily and said 'Son, the papaya is starting to produce fruits’.

I could not believe this because that would be a genetic change. So I went there and saw the papayas actually growing. And these were delicious papayas! We all enjoyed these fruits, a product of the Agnihotra ash.
That to me is a great experience! It is practically a miracle of the Agnihotra ash and the Agnihotra fire."

BANANA and a Biological Control Agent

"I want to tell you that we had on our farm "Fuente de Alegria" (Source of Joy) a cochinila or chinche arenosa plague. This plague has caused us big problems, including rejection of containers in the United States. Our bananas went to Walmart, but Walmart rejected the containers due to the presence of the cochinilla, which is not acceptable for the United States market. This bug is an insect, a sucker living in the roots of the banana plants, but it also goes up into the fruit. Although it does not harm the bananas, it is very dangerous if it enters places where fruits are imported, because it is very harmful for citrus fruit, grapes and many plants growing in the USA and Europe.

Consequently it is imperative that there are no insects on the bananas.
This year, and we are thanking God and HOMA Therapy for this, an insect has appeared and is entering the banana plantation, only now since we do HOMA Therapy. Before, this insect was in the cocoa, but never came to the bananas. This insect is a biological control agent and has come to wipe away the cochinilla plague.
We practice every day Agnihotra at sunrise or sunset, 8 hours of Tryambakam Homa and on new and full moon we do 24 hours of Tryambakam Homa. "

BANANAS

"We selected a hectare of bananas only to test HOMA Farming Tecnology and we are only fumigating the Agnihotra ash solution with the help of a water pump. In this sector we also apply the ash that is produced during the Tryambakam Homa. This has given us an excellent control of the Black Sigatoka. So much so that the people who do the technical checkups and the weekly plant analysis, who initially were full of disbelieve and laughed at us and at what we were doing, took samples  from the Homa plot and got astonished. The Homa area has another color and presents less infection. We are very excited. We are considering now handling the whole farm with HOMA Therapy. We started the Homa farming project in the part of the farm where there was the  poorest soil, but now there is clear evidence that this lot is much better than the rest. You can see from the plane that it is much greener."

Better world: Eat more plants
18 September 2009 by Michael Le Page

There are two good reasons for eating more fruit and vegetables in place of meat: it's better for you and it's better for the environment.
Where the food you eat comes from matters less than what it is. The greenhouse emissions from transporting food are typically only a tiny proportion of the total emissions associated with growing food.
Livestock are responsible for nearly a fifth of all

greenhouse emissions, from the methane produced by their guts and manure, to nitrous oxide emissions from the fertilisers used to grow feed for them. Because it takes several kilograms of plant matter to grow a kilogram of meat, producing meat and animal products such as cheese usually greatly multiplies the environmental damage done by farming. The huge amounts of land required are driving the destruction of rainforests, for instance. Even small reductions in consumption, such as making Mondays meat-free, could make a big difference.

Himachal Pradesh farmers adopt centuries old Homa farming method

Palampur, Aug.27 (ANI):
Himachal Pradesh, a State described by many people as the land of deities, is known for its traditional lifestyle and belief in religious rituals.
To get a good harvest many farmers in Himachal have now adopted its century-old method of ‘Homa’ farming, which is farming with prayers and chanting mantras.

Homa farming is a spiritual practice that dates back to the Vedic period. It involves chanting of Sanskrit mantras at specific time in a day before the holy fire.
The practitioners and propagators of Homa farming, also call it as “revealed science”.
Agriculture University of Himachal Pradesh is experimenting on these techniques for last three years and they have got good results.
”We are very glad to see that wherever Homa farming was done, the plants are growing in a healthier manner and they are giving good produce. In comparison to other plants that are giving low produce due to draught-like situation,” said Y S Paul, Head of the Department, Organic Farming Program.
Homa farming basically energises or awakens the farmland on which it is practiced. The ash that results from the Havana (holy fire) and the fire (Puja) is used to energize composts, plants, animals, etc.
” One such process is ‘Agnihotra,’ in order to activate certain points in the farmland, we add holy ash in the middle of the farm after recitation of mantras. This kind of farming method is popular in Germany and other countries as well,” said Satish Sharma, Acting Vice Chancellor Cum Research Director, Agriculture University Of Palampur.
Farmers in the region are reaping benefits from this novel and unique farming method.
The method is an age-old phenomenon invented in India and is described in detail in the Rig Veda.
The term Homa is derived from the ancient practice of performing Yajna or Havan by lighting a holy fire and putting ingredients like cow dung, raw rice etc. in it and reciting Vedic mantras along with it.
Homa farming is said to be beneficial for human beings, animals and crops as it is also environment-friendly. (ANI)

Mr. Oscar Gutierrez from Madrid, Spain writes:
"My name is Oscar Gutierrez and I am currently living with my wife in Madrid, Spain. I have been practicing Agnihotra for two months and I also occasionally practice the Tryambakam Homa. We especially do it in order to support our spiritual practice, as we experience that Agnihotra rises the vibrational and energetic level of both, the place where it is done and in the people who practice it. We have also noticed that it creates an atmosphere of peace in our home and in the region around the house.
The photos were taken during sunset Agnihotra. We have never seen anything close to these spheres of light in photos taken with the same camera, outdoors or indoors. We continued to take photos of Agnihotra on successive days, and the phenomenon was repeated the next day but has not reoccurred.
We encourage everyone to be consistent in the practice of Agnihotra and to disseminate it in accordance to their possibilities. Wishing you all the best, Oscar"
