Offerings (Oblations)

Caution: - It is absolutely important that only cow-ghee must be used for performing Havan or Agnihotra. Ghee of any other animal excepting the cow is taboo in such performance not only on socio-religious grounds, but because of ghee of other animal exudes fumes, which polluted the atmosphere.

Formmaline is used in operation theatres in hospitals for sterilizing surgical instruments etc. Agnihotra oblation of cow-ghee and rice offered in pyramid pot emit this very chemical on burning, which pervades the air around and renders the atmosphere bacteria free. Scientific laboratory tests have proved the Agnihotra releases many atmosphere-purifying gases like ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, formaldehyde, betapropiolactone etc.

When a man inhales the air charged with gases emitted from cow-ghee and rice oblations in Agnihotra, it exerts a curative and healthful effect by purifying blood, and strengthening the heart, the lungs and the brain and thus freeing body and mind form toxins and tensions.

Remember that all this comes to you only with just two drops of cow-ghee and a few grains of unbroken rice (Akshat) burning in the pyramid pot. Co-ghee must essentially be pure. Such pure ghee is almost impossible to get in the market. So it is advisable that the householder performing Agnihotra must prepare his/her own cow-ghee at home. Pure cow ghee is also available Madhavashram.
