Yagya fire rituals are conducted year-round at the Shiva Temple in Lilleoru.
Yagya is a very old Vedic fire ritual that has been practiced in India for thousands of years. It is a deeply spiritual activity aimed at creating a connection with the forces of nature and pure consciousness. Yagya is a consciously and precisely performed act. At its center is fire, which serves as a mediator between the human and the unseen world. Into the fire are offered prayers, intentions, and devotion – it is a silent and sacred communication.
The word yagya means giving and devotion in Sanskrit. During the ritual, symbolic offerings (such as ghee, seeds, or herbs) are given to the fire, accompanied by mantras and deep concentration. The fire is not just fire – it is a conscious presence, a force of nature approached with respect and trust.
When a person participates in a yagya with full concentration and sincerity, they express their intention and entrust it to the care of the fire. This can become a deeply touching and transformative experience.
Yagya helps to purify old habitual patterns stored in consciousness. It creates space for clarity, presence, and inner growth. During the ritual, one may experience the qualities of the natural principle to whom the yagya is dedicated – not through thinking, but directly, within.
Yagya can be described as a timeless form of spiritual technology – it is simple, yet creates a profound and vibrant experience.
