The basic tool in Homa
Therapy is Agnihotra, a small fire
prepared in a copper pyramid exactly
to synchronize with arrival of the
first rays of sun at sunrise for
example. The first rays have a
purificatory effect on the whole
atmosphere. Following is a
description of sunrise given in
ancient technologies.
"At sunrise
the many fires, electricities,
ethers and more subtle energies
emanating from the sun extend all
the way to the earth and produce a
flood effect at those coordinates
where the sun is said to rise. It is
awesome. The flood enlivens and
purifies everything in its path,
destroying what is impure in its
wake. This torrent of life
sustaining energies causes all life
to rejoice. At sunrise that music
can be heard. The morning Agnihotra
Mantra is the essence of that music.
It is the quintessential sound of
that flood. At sunset the flood
recedes."
