Ceremoney ingredients and altar

 

 In The Bhagavad Gita the Lord declared thus: It uis I who am the ritual, I the sacrifice, the offering to the ancestors, the healing herb, the transcendental chant. I am the butter and the fire and the offering. Chapter 9, verse 14. This yagya was perfomed in ultimate sense to please the creator of all existence.

Sri NrSimha Yagya in Naamhat Boxtel, NL

One has to understand ultimately that everything is under the controll of the supreme, the God, the creator. Therefore all the human beings are indebted to the supreme controller for their existence just like we are indebted to the suplying agents of water, electricity, gas etc appointed by the governement of every state. One has to pay the bill so that the government will be please with and continues the necessary supply. In reality the ultimate supplier of every ingredients that state has,  is the creator Himself, so He would be pleased by performing sacrifices as mentioned in the Vedic scriptures. One such sacrifice is called fire sacrifice in which food grains with butter is offered unto the ceremnial fire. Every living beings' existence depends on vegetation- the food grains for people and enimals for example, and that is supplied in absolute terms by the supreme Lord, as mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita 10.8. So, as gesture of gratitude, or in other words, as we pay the bills to the energy department for the consumption of the one's energy one also has to pay back to the Lord for the supply of all the life giving elements so that there will be adequate supply of the necessities all the time and peace on earth will prevail. 

The secondary intention to organise such sacrifce was to seek peace and welbeings of all the people of any background. A brahmana pujari from Tirupati, South India, Rohitdas prabhu came to Naamhat Boxtel and we took the opportunity to fulfill the human obligation to the absolute as well as to all the fellow beings.
