Rajasooya Yajna 2005
Part Three
 This
is only possible if nature is happy. If nature is sick, ailing and disturbed
by the actions that oppose and destroy its balance, it will certainly
rebound onto us, and that is what we are experiencing today. The air is
sick, the water is impure, the rains do not come on time, the heat is
exaggerated, the winters are harsh and severe. Insects, flies and mosquitoes
are increasing rapidly, virulent diseases are spreading without any check.
In short, the harmony is disturbed.
Yajnas make nature happy. And this in turn is communicated to the environment
and the people who inhabit it. Tantra describes the yajnasthanam as a
place where the heart is spontaneously filled with peace and totally attuned
to nature or prakriti. It is in these peaceful moments of harmony and
balance that the universe and subsequently man is rejuvenated and restored.
 Thus
yajnas serve as an antidote to the effects of widespread pollution all
around us, whether it is air, water, noise, light or even thought pollution
that is invading us from all sides. In this 21st century, when man is
surrounded by artificial products that may serve his purpose very well
but have made him a stranger to the nature which creates, nourishes and
sustains him, it is this simple ceremony of yajna alone that can once
again forge the link between him and mother nature. An ancient practice
no doubt, shrouded in antiquity but as relevant to modern man as it was
to the rishis and munis of the vedic era who conceived the spirit of yajna
to express their love, respect and reverence for Mother Nature.
The Sat Chandi Mahayajna, which is a part of the Rajasooya Yajna, is
now approaching the final culmination, which will take place in the twelfth
year, and all spiritual seekers are invited to participate in this sacred
event which Swami Satyananda has initiated for the benefit of mankind.
 The
yajna prasad chosen by Swami Satyananda in 2005 will include grains, household
utensils, agricultural tools and implements, blankets, clothing and woollens
for adults and children, as well as stationery, notebooks and schoolbags
for the students, i.e. all necessary items for his neighbours in Rikhia
panchayat.
Sivananda Math has undertaken the huge task of purchasing and packing
all this material and if you wish to attain the punya or merit of making
your offering to the deity of the yajna, you may contact us for further
information on how to do so.
All are invited to this sacred event to receive the grace of Guru and
Devi Ma in abundance.
