Meaning of the terms ‘yAga’ and ‘homa’

[Guest guest]

HARI AUM

 

An equal understanding of these terms with its present and past relevance is of

great value. Thanks Shree Sastriji. Probably this aspect is what could be

missing among most people. Resultantly these much knowledge, due to its lackness

in proper understanding in application in daily life has left this nation (read

people) bereft of its rightful prosperity. Though Bhagavan said in 'gita' 7/11

that 'I am desire of beings which are not against 'dharma'' most people reject

'desires' altogether. This utter rejection leads to regression and faulty mental

and personal situations resulting in underperformance and underachievement in

all walks of one's life affecting the nation in the end.

 

Thanks again for the right interpretation.

Namaste,

 

It should be pointed out, though, that Gita distinguishes

dravyamaya (material) from j~naanamaya (spiritual) yaj~na, and deems

the latter as superior to the former (4:33). In fact, study of the

Gita itself is a j~naana-yaj~na (18:70).

 

The purpose of the yaj~na is spelled out in 3:9; actions

performed for any reason other than as yaj~na is cause for bondage.

If the 'desire' is for any purpose other than pleasing the Supreme

Spirit (parameshvara-priityarthaM), vain is the effort (moghaashaa,

moghakarmaaNo - 9:12).
