From February 10-20, 2019, Jagatguru Mahayogi Siddha Baba conducted Shree Ram Tarak Brahma Mahayagya in Chattardham, Sunsari, Nepal. This rare historical event was conducted for the second time in history, after 705 years. The more difficult and powerful a yagya is, the more infrequently it will be conducted and the greater the spiritual caliber of the Yogi must be. Hence, the occurrence of this extremely rare yagya is both a testimony to it’s immense power and to the exceptional spiritual perfection (siddhi) of Jagatguru Mahayogi Siddhababa.
The general aim of this yagya was for global spiritual awakening, global welfare and peace. Its intention was to make the global environment clean, healthy and abundant in food grains. As the Yagya took place in Nepal, it has a special connection and aim for the land. The yagya specifically aimed to make Nepal a “Green and Prosperous” country through abundant production of organic crops and Ayurvedic herbs.
There were two main components of this Mahaygaya: (1) Bhagbhat Nam Jaap Anusthan and (2) Havan. In this context, Bhagbhat Nam Jaap Anusthan refers to heartfelt (intentional and internal) recitation of energy-charged mantras given by Mahayogi Siddhababa through deeksha. Such chanting encourages the mind to enter into a meditative state, so that the practitioners may begin to connect with the Divine within themselves. It also changes one’s vibration, evoking a higher level of Consciousness (Source: Yogapedia). Bhagbhat Nam Jaap Anusthan commenced on the occasion of Mahashivaratri (February 13, 2018) and continued until Basanta Panchami (February 10, 2019). It was practised by more than 1, 200 global students of Mahayogi Siddha Baba, each of whom at minimum completed 12, 00 000 (twelve lakh) mantra recitations. In total, over one 1 billion 600 million (one arab sixty crores) mantra recitations were completed.
The second component of this Mahayagya was Dasamasha Havan. This refers to a ritual wherein offerings (organic herbal medicine, sesame seeds, ghee etc.) are made into a consecrated fire as Vedic mantras are chanted. In this Mahayagya, there were 108 havan kundas, energy-encapsulating fire pits, wherein 1, 200 Mahayogi Siddhababa dikshit students offered a total of 10 million and 12, 000 000 (1 arab 60 crores) oblations (aahutis). Dasamasha Hawan took place from February 10-20, 2019.
Before the Mahayagya (havan) began, a Mahashobha journey took place on February 8, 2019. This event was a procession of over 1, 000 individuals who travelled across South-eastern Nepal to announce the near-beginning of Shree Ram Tarak Brahma Mahayagya. The auspicious Mahayagya was inaugurated on February 9, 2019 by chief guest, the Honorable President of Nepal, Ms. Biddhya Devi Bhandari (Full Program in Nepali). During this Mahayagya there were a great confluence of many holy Saints and Jagadgurus including many distinguished personalities from all over the world. ‘Ram Leela’, a play about the legend of King Rama, was also enjoyed every evening. On the last day of the Mahayagya, Mahayogi Siddhababa was decorated with the highest spiritual honor – the title of Jagatguru (Guru of the Universe). The event concluded with a grand ceremony of 100,000 lights otherwise known as a lakh batti celebration.
The scientific secrets hidden behind ancient Vedic incantations, rituals, and ceremonies are well documented in both the East and West. According to spiritual science, the smoke originating from Yagya helps destroy harmful bacteria from the environment; helps to densify Earth’s protective ozone layer; and establishes sattva gunas in human beings, such as pure love, kindness, compassion and humanity. The positive vibration of mantras are taken up in a spiral form by up bound heat radiation and collision of sonic waves to the atmosphere (cosmic level). Thus Yagya, plays a major role in establishing both environmental balance and in bringing positivity to human beings. This is corroborated by findings from scientific journals which shows yagya:
Hence, it is believed that the regular practice of havan brings purification and transformation to individuals and the environment. In this way, havans are also part of yoga ecology as they adhere to the yogic principles of purity and caring for the natural world (Source: Yogapedia).
