    Pranagnihotra Yagna

    Vedic scriptures describe our body to comprise of five tatvas, namely prithvi, jala, agni, vayu and akasha (Earth,
    water, fire, air and space). Hence body is also known by the name Panchabhautik sharer. The air that we breathe
    (pranayama with 7 vyahrutis) in conjunction with the food that is partaken with the mantra of swaha transforms into
    divine energy and creates favorable conditions for upasana, sadhana and aradhana of the sadhaks. When we eat food
    with this awareness and with this procedure, it becomes yagna. Mudras or the positions of fingers play an important
    role when we eat food in this manner. When we eat food with the associated mudras, the food is accepted by the
    respective divine energies who will in return bestow us with complete health.
    1st step – Bhushuddhi : cleanse the area where you plan to eat food by sprinkling water along with chanting of
    Gayatri mantra.
    2nd step – Dehashuddi: Clean your hands and legs before you eat. Perform moolabandha 7 times before
    commencing eating. This will help easy digestion of food.
    1. Prana Ahuti

    Mudra – Join the thumb, index and middle fingers


    Take few grains of rice with ghee with your hand in the above mudra.
    Meditate on: Color – Golden color; Rishi- Kshudagni; Devata – Sun; Chandas – Gayatri
    Chant ‘Om pranaya swaha’ and put the rice in your mouth (preferably without touching the lips. Utter ‘idam aadi
    devaya na mama’. Lord savita accepts this ahuti and bestows us varchas. Our body will get tuned for doing Gayatri
    mantra japa. Good appetite is created. Anahata (Heart) chakra is activated.
    2.     Apana Ahuti
    Mudra – Join the thumb, middle and ring fingers
    Take few grains of rice with ghee with your hand in the above mudra.
    Meditate on: Color – milky white; Rishi- Shraddhagni; Devata – Soma; Chandas – Ushnik
    Chant ‘Om apanaya swaha’ and put the rice in your mouth (preferably without touching the lips. Utter ‘idam
    somaya na mama’. Lord Soma or Moon accepts this ahuti. When pranashakti merges with Moon, we should feel
    that it is getting transformed into peace and health. Mooladhara (Base) chakra is activated.
    3. Vyana Ahuti

    Mudra – Join the thumb, ring and little fingers


    Take few grains of rice with ghee with your hand in the above mudra.
    Meditate on: Color – Lotus color; Rishi- Hutashanagni; Devata – agni; Chandas – Anushtup
    Chant ‘Om vyanaya swaha’ and put the rice in your mouth (preferably without touching the lips. Utter ‘idam
    agnaye na mama’. The food received in Vyana mudra influences the Swadhistana chakra. The energy flows from
    navel to the toe and protects us from any diseases related to these body parts.
    4. Udana Ahuti

    Mudra – Join the thumb, little and index fingers


    Take few grains of rice with ghee with your hand in the above mudra.
    Meditate on: Color – Arudra; Rishi- Agni; Devata – Vayu; Chandas – Brihati
    Chant ‘Om udanaya swaha’ and put the rice in your mouth (preferably without touching the lips. Utter ‘idam
    vayuve na mama’. This mudra affects vishuddhi chakra. The food along with mantra shakti works from throat to
    head upwards and gives good voice.
    5.  Samana Ahuti
    Mudra – Join the tips of all the five fingers
    Take few grains of rice with ghee with your hand in the above mudra.
    Meditate on: Color – Red; Rishi- Agni; Devata – Parjanya; Chandas – Pankti
    Chant ‘Om samanaya swaha’ and put the rice in your mouth (preferably without touching the lips. Utter ‘idam
    parjanyaya na mama’. This ahuti activates the manipuraka chakra because of which the entire region from the
    heart to navel remains healthy. This also ensures good breathing process.
    By following the rules given above and eating food as per the procedure given ensures that you enjoy a healthy and
    peaceful life. This procedure targeted for your spiritual progress also transforms you into Divine Man. This is what
    has been described as the true Brahmanism by Param Pujya Gurudev.
