Homa (Sacred Fire Ceremony) by Swamini Ambikamrita Prana

Apr 4, 2026 6:00am-8:30am 

An auspicious Homa (sacred fire ceremony) will be performed by Swamini Ambikamrita Prana on Saturday, April 4th, starting at 6 am, during the weekend Amrita Silent Retreat Immersion with Swami Dayamritananda Puri and Swamini.

Attendance will be open to those registered for the retreat and/or registered for the Homa.

Homa, or Puja, is ceremonial worship of the Divine, performed to keep us in harmony with cosmic forces, thereby removing and overcoming the sorrows of life and bringing spiritual upliftment. By doing puja, thoughts and vibrations of spiritual forces are created around us.

Please note that those who register for sankalpa do not need to be present to receive the benefits of the Homa.

The following will be included in the Homa and are available to register for a sankalpa (spiritual resolve) to be made during the homa on your behalf, or for a loved one: Ganapathy Homa, Maha Ganapathy Homa, Tila Homa, Navagraha Homa for all nine planets, and Pujas for Individual Planets: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.

Register online for sankalpa before Friday, April 3rd at 6:00 PM here.
