#1 EMERGENCY (Part A)

     If we look at the current situation in the different countries of the world and we wonder what is the emergency # 1 that affects all?
What would you say?
Most scientists would say:
 "Global Warming" or "Climate Change",
but what is the cause? Many agree that the
environmental pollution
has devastating effects on everything and explain:
the increase of population implies an increase in:
 °Food consumption
°Agriculture
°Livestock
°Fishing
°Consumption of Natural Resources (water, minerals, wood, fossil fuels, etc.)
°Traffic (terrestrial, marine,
 air, river communication,
space (?), etc.)
°Industrialization
°Communication (telephone, cellular, Internet, cinema, etc.)
°Electricity and Electromagnetic Networks
°Consumption of Basic Services

These activities become problems when they are accompanied by:
1) Energy generation through
a) Fossil fuel (gas, oil, etc.) causing an increase in CO2 linked to
the Greenhouse Effect
b) Nuclear plants related to radioactive products and the reactivity
2) Cutting and burning of tropical jungles and forest areas for:
a) Conventional Toxic Agriculture of monocultures in large extensions
Examples: Oil palms, rangelands, etc.
b) Excessive and Irrational Livestock
c) Mining

3) Increase of synthetic substances, plastics and waste of all kinds on the planet
4) Increase of Space Debris
5) Chemical Trails
6) HAARP or Geo-Engineering (-)
7) Others

These extreme activities have altered the energy cycles, the natural balance and poisoned the planet with excess of greenhouse gases (C02, methane, etc.), toxic substances, electromagnetic fields, radioactivity, etc.
Of course, this affects all the inhabitants of the earth, including us. This is a kind of
"Auto-Genocide"
 
However, the Spiritual Scientists tell us that the primary causes are the Mental impurities,
such as: greed, selfishness, anger, envy, lust, etc.

 Fortunately, the solution has been revealed. Homa Therapy can help us to mitigate and resolve many of these problems. Yes, yes, yes, only the Science can help us to get out of the hole that we have got ourselves into and not the superstition of thinking that we can continue poisoning and not be harmed (?)

Homa Therapy helps us to: clarify our mind,
transform our awareness, clean our home, and
heal the planet,
our Mother Earth.
Let's get on with it!
Let’s light up the Homa Fires.

HOMA HEALING STORIES

HOMA HEALING STORIES

 1.) Then I started doing Agnihotra fire, collected its ash and prepared a solution to spray that dry plant regularly. It turned out that one month and a half later, the shrub began to sprout and it recovered completely. That was a very nice experience for the whole family.
2)  My mother also was very much in tune with the Homa fire, because every time we practiced Agnihotra, a very beautiful energy was generated. There was so much peace and the birds felt attracted.
3).  Once, thieves entered into our farm house. They turned the whole place upside down and took objects from different rooms. The only room which remained untouched was the room with the Agnihotra pyramid! It is the room where I sleep when I go there. On that weekend, I had left very valuable equipment in this room with the door open.
4.)  But the best testimony of all, occurred at the time of the earthquake in 1999, when my father lived in Armenia, although the rest of the family was living in Manizales. We heard on the radio that the earthquake had been quite destructive in Pereira, but Armenia was not mentioned. So we said that surely nothing had happened in Armenia. But, later on came the news that Armenia had been completely destroyed. This was for us a very, very big shock. We tried to communicate with our father and contact him by different means, but nothing. My brothers-in-law suggested that we travel to Armenia, if we would not hear anything from him until 6 in the evening. I told them that this time was a very special time and I wanted to do Agnihotra. Exactly, when I was with the Fire, the communication with my father entered. He told us that he was alright and that he would be coming the next day to Manizales. In his department, I also had an Agnihotra pyramid.
     I am fully convinced of the goodness of the Homa fires. It is very difficult to rationally come to the truth. The truth is mystical and it cannot be checked through the mind. But, when one has lived experiences with the heart, one knows what is real. Sharing these, is my gratitude to the Fire."

HOMA FARMING -
THE SOLUTION FOR THE FUTURE OF OUR PLANET!

    Mrs. Elena Biamon, farmer with studies in Microbiology, Environmental Sciences and Culinary Arts, shares her experience from the Cripiña Farm, Utuado, Puerto Rico, Caribbean:
    "I have dedicated the last 12 years to organic farming. We did Agnihotra in the farm for the first time in the year 2015, a year of a very terrible drought. Already the next day, that is in less than 24 hours, the whole farm was completely green, green, green! We were in the midst of a drought, the plants had been much stressed, and they looked as if they had been released from that stress.
                          (Photo: Mrs. Elena doing Agnihotra on her farm.)

            I sell some products from the farm at the organic market of San Juan. They all say that ours bananas are the best. Sometimes, I carry cherry tomato and people tell me that they are spectacular. I say this with all humility.

HOMA AROUND THE WORLD -  SAN JOSE, COSTA RICA

HOMA AROUND THE WORLD -  SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO

   Excerpts from a letter of Eng. Matthias Erismann and his wife Ayrad addressed to the Agnihotris of Puerto Rico:  
   "We are expanding Homa Therapy with its healing fires all over the island. Recently we were in Mayagüez, creating a new Agnihotra group and in Bayamón, expanding another group.

This coming weekend we'll be in the Rincon area...
We want to remember that the purpose of Homa Therapy is to purify and heal the atmosphere. Then the atmosphere heals the earth, the water, the plants, the animals and us. The I, I, I comes last. Let’s not lose this approach. We need to detoxify our environment first to have the benefits later. So let’s continue to practice these healing fires for the benefits of Puerto Rico.
OM SHREE OM."

FUTURE EVENT  - SOMAYAG 2017,
MAHESHWAR GOSHALA, INDIA

This 7th Somayag is known as Aptoryam.
This Somayag is to help all our families and all living beings in good health as well as to purify our environment and thus help all the planet to regain good health again.
On a more subtle level Aptoryam Somayag is for purification and strengthening our sense organs - and as it is the sense organs through which we perceive the World. If these sense are pure and strong, we will be able to achieve Equanimity of Mind and Ultimate Peace. So this particular Somayag will help to unite all humanity.

The beneficial effect of each of these Somayags last for several decades. The atmosphere becomes medicinal, nutritious and disease free.

Somayags yield great benefits to the psyche. They are, of course, part of the Science of Yajnya, of which daily sunrise/sunset Agnihotra is the core practice for the common person.

So let us come together and celebrate this time with each other in Unity and Harmony.

SCIENTIFIC ASPECTS OF AGNIHOTRA by Dr. Ulrich Berk

Purification of the Atmosphere by Agnihotra

The main statement of Homa Therapy is: Agnihotra heals the atmosphere – and the healed atmosphere heals the environment, plants, animals, and humans.

How can we understand that statement in terms of modern science? And then, as a second step, see whether modern scientific research can either confirm or refute such statements?
We will cover all these aspects of Agnihotra – effects on our environment (air, soil, and water resources), plant life including agriculture and horticulture, animal health and animal breeding, and human health in the following issues of this newsletter.

Let us now begin with the effect of Agnihotra in purifying our air. We can distinguish three forms of air pollution: biological, chemical, and physical air pollution. Actually, there is one more form of pollution of our atmosphere – that is thought pollution. Although this perhaps is the worst form (as it leads to the other forms of pollution), we will deal with that aspect later on as a scientific examination is a bit more complicated.

         Biological air pollution is the presence of pathogenic bacteria and viruses. Will this contamination be reduced by performing Agnihotra? Several studies have confirmed this assumption. The first of such studies was done in the eighties of last century at one Warsaw university, Poland. It showed that the bacterial count went down, starting right after Agnihotra. After 12 hours less than 10% of the original bacterial count was remaining. That would have been the time for next Agnihotra.

Alas we do not have a photo documentation of this early experiment. But we do have photos and data from replications – one was done at Fergusson College (one of the leading colleges in Pune, India) a few years back. The difference between before and after Agnihotra is obvious – although the "after“ measurement was taken only half an hour after Agnihotra.

It will be interesting to see the effect after 12 hours, and even more interesting to see what happens if we perform Agnihotra regularly for one week or for one month.

MESSAGES FROM SHREE VASANT

AGNIHOTRA:
       Fire ceremony, as it is called in some places, is ancient. It is known to mankind all over the world. Many ancient cultures have long lost their fire rituals. In nearly every ancient civilization fire rituals of some kind were performed, generally for some kind of healing purposes. In old American Indian cultures certain tribes had ceremonial rites using fire as a spiritual force, source of energy and healing vibration. 

Much of this has been lost or distorted but still much literature remains and the elders themselves can be interviewed on such matters. In Africa, Asia, in some countries still it is practiced from old. So it is not new. It is very, very old healing. Let it be known now all over the world. All over the world again.

GOALS:
      If you are committed to do this work, then have goals to achieve and systems for achieving those goals.

POLLUTION & DESTRUCTION:
       In the Bible, there is reference to the coming of the destruction. It is given in code. It is given, clearly given. It is time as told in the Bible. It is past time when destruction was to start.

There is no time. No time left for the planet.
Faith is to be rejuvenated.
Whole lands will be saved from destruction, cause of destruction being altered.
Rapid deterioration is evident. Still reversal is taking place due to YAJNYA in atmosphere.

People ask, "Will there be a nuclear war?" Certainly there will be some kind of war. Every day there is war, but all out nuclear war will not come. It will not come to this end. Still much work must be done to avert dangers now present in contamination of water, air, earth. This is the big killer - POLLUTION. We do not need nuclear attack. We are already exterminating whole species of animals, trees, our natural resources, streams, lakes and rivers. This is man's destruction of his environment. So let us concern ourselves with the environment.

FROM INTUITIVE GUIDANCE
(as received by Parvati Bizberg, Poland)

Yes, yes. It is urgent that you do not become embroiled in the negativity that is being foisted upon all of you. Across the world stage the horrors of war have become frightening sudden explosions of fury they are occurring all over the world.

There is an orchestrated plan behind it all, but it is neither a particular racial or religious profile to blame, nor is it one governing body. It is being orchestrated by those in power, many of whom no one is even aware of. Yes, it is sinister. And yes, the effects are widespread.

You must not give unto fear. Those troubling events will continue, well-timed and fear inducing. When a population is fearful, it can be controlled easier. Yes, yes. It is the ‘new world order.’

Detach. All of you Light Workers have honed your healing skills, learned the properties of herbs as medicinal balms for body and mind and spirit. You have found ways to rejuvenate the natural resources through the healing fires of old and through sounds which resonate with five elements, and created songs and imagery to uplift your souls. You have collected wisdom, ancient and new, for just these times.

Build your oases.
Come together in communities.
Raise children with Love, human decency, honour and integrity.

Learn to love your brothers and sisters.
And above all, create bridges of UNDERSTANDING, held firmly with compassion and TRUTH.

Know that these times have been foreseen and foretold.
You have been forewarned. Thus you are forearmed – with LOVE, tempered with GRACE.

Stand firm in the TRUTH. Your souls are moving into the LIGHT.

The enemy is FEAR.
The ally is FAITH.
And Faith shall always yield GRACE.

Walk in Light.
OM TAT SAT

On Communication from the Heart
Yes, yes. May we speak to this subject? If one side of a paradigm is fixed, unmoving, inflexible and set, and the other side is evolving through effort, uncovering and discovering not only new realizations about themselves, but also new, more effective ways of communication—there can be a standstill between two divergent sides.

What is important to remember here is that, generally speaking, two halves make a whole.

However divergent the thinking may be, it is more a matter for the hearts than the minds. We have discovered that, when the approach comes from the heart, there is far more possibility of successful negotiation and heartfelt communication.

If you choose to lead with your hearts, then this effort must be consistent, no matter how much the heads disagree! If you keep shifting the communication from head to heart, and remaining basically grounded in love, there is not only hope for the future, but probability of success. Yes, successful outcome is possible.

You have no choice but to hear how others feel and interact with respect, even if you cannot agree with their stance on matters. You can agree to disagree, but to come together for the sake of unity and camaraderie, as your hearts would surely dictate. Indeed, follow your hearts.
