Research Findings

 

 
 
  
  
 Agnihotra ash and its resultant atmosphere is being employed as useful in Ecological-Farming practices. Hundreds of farmers are regularly practicing Agnihotra farming methods.  
  
 The fruits, vegetables and grains grown by this method are qualitatively better in texture, taste and size as compared to controlled farms where regular use of pesticides and fertilizers is done. Agnihotra atmosphere induces rapid seed germination. Agnihotra ash is an effective fertilizer and helps in releasing soluble phosphate from the soil.  
 
  
  
 1. Kirlian Photographs of human hand 10 minutes before and 10 minutes after Agnihotra. After Agnihotra photograph showed increased energy with healing effect. 
 

 
 2. Kirlian photographs of living Spearmint plant before Agnihotra showed 'red surrounding' meaning aggressiveness. After Agnihotra photographs showed 'blue surrounding' meaning relaxation.

 PRELIMINARY STUDY   
 


PRELIMINARY STUDIES ON THE EFFECT OF HOMA FARMING ON THE YIELD AND INCIDENCE OF LEAP SPOT, MYCOSPHAERELLA BRASSICICOLA IN CABBAGE Cv. QUESTO N.

Selvaraj, B. Ramraj, N. Seenivasan and K. Shoba

Horticulturalk Research Station, Vijayanagaram, Ooty-643001

The byproduct of Homa farming called Agnihotra ash, is obtained by burning dry cow dung, cow ghee and unbroken raw rice in an inverted copper pyramid plate at the time of sunrise and sunset with chanting specific Vedic mantras.

It was believed that adoption of homa farming in agricultural field completely sterilized the environment and cleared the field from pathogens.

Hence , an experiment was conducted to study the effect of foliar spraying of Agnihotra ash ( 200 gram of Agnihotra ash in 1 liter cow urine kept for three days for fermentation and dissolved in 10 liter of water) for the management of leaf spot caused by Mycosphaerella Brassicicola on Cabbage cv. Questo during the main season 2001-202 at horticultural Research Station, Ooty, Nilgiris of Tamil Nadu.

The treatments comprised of spraying of Agnihotra ash 5 times at 10 days interval, spraying mancozeb 0.2% 5 times at 10 days interval and untreated control.

The results revealed that foliar application of Agnihotra ash has increased the yield of Cabbage by 38.8 % And reduced the leaf spot by 70.6% OVER untreated control.

 
 
   
 
 BACTERIOSTATIC EFFECT:
In a series of experiments conducted by a group of microbiologists & pathologists under the guidance of Dr A.G. Mondkar and Shri.Y.B. Sohoni the behaviour of microflora was studied in the atmosphere generated by Agnihotra. It was observed that the Agnihotra atmosphere was markedly bacteriostatic. In it more than 96% growth of bacteria was inhibited. Agnihotra atmosphere acted as a shield in which bacteria, especially the pathogenic types were not allowed to grow. In another set of trials conducted in the polluted slums, similar results were noted. It was observed that there is definite reduction in aerial micro flora after performing Agnihotra.
 
 
  
  
 Practice of Agnihotra has been found useful in drug and alcohol de-addiction programs conducted by Lt. Col. G.R. Golecha, (Sr. Advisor) Dep. of Psychiatry, Indian Army. It gives positive strength to the mind and enhances motivation to quit the addiction.  
 
  
  
 
 At the defense institute of physiology and allied sciences (DIPAS) New Delhi, Dr. Selvamurthy (Sr. Scientist) studied the physiological effects of Agnihotra on the human mind and body. It was observed that during the performance of Agnihotra, the heart rate showed a declining trend, body temperature was raised, GSR remained significantly higher, ECG showed DC shift in base, EEG showed constant changes, power in Alpha band increased, while there was a tendency of suppression in delta power. t has been concluded that Agnihotra atmosphere has distinct beneficial effects on mind and body leading to mental tranquility.
