Extract:
'Agnihotra

with use of mantra at sunrise and sunset time. It is found
to have neurophysiological effect on human body and brain.
Computerised EEG studies has shown delta wave suppression
and alpha wave activation in frontal leads during Agnihotra.
Clinically it produces mental tranquility and reported to
have useful adjunct effect on deaddiction. In our present
study effect of agnihotra was studied on 18 cases of Alcoholism.
It is found that it leads to total abstinace without other
restrain after two weeks of continuous Agnihotra practice.
An obsessive compliance to perform Agnihotra develops. After
discontiuing its effects last for another few weeks … On
stopping Agnihotra replapses may develop after 2 weeks onward
in small percentage of cases. Nevertheless, it appears to
be an useful adjunct in treatment of alcoholism, if performed
regularly.'
