Guest guest Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Dear All I wanted to share an experince I had with everyone. Since the time I had been doing homa on a regular basis I had first started off with an iron kunda, then an aluminium and finally shifted to a copper homa kunda. And in each cases, I could feel some very papable effects. When I was doing it in an iron kunda for some days I would often get singed in the flames. Once it was to quite an extent, such taht I had problems in walking for a few days. This was after I had used the iron kunda for consequetive homas for some days. Then I changed it and started using an Aluminuim kunda which became dark and black with use. I had been using this aluminum kunda for about a month and half regularly when some strange things started happening. There used to be some sort of infestation of incests in my pooja room. One day I found a scorpion in my room! This was quite strange since I had been living there for many months and now and never have I seen any before. Then came spiders. Now I am generally scared of spiders. This had a strange psychological effect on my mind, such that one day when I closed my eyes to meditate infront of the fire, I could just see spiders all around. And strangest of all, within a few days I got bitten by one! Never had I or anyone else I knew, had known that spiders can bite. But this is a fact, cause I went through it and it is quite painful. It sort of left a small gaping wound on my neck. Then finally I shifted to a copper kunda and all such incidents stopped. Infact after using a copper kunda for sometime it created a marked feeling of lightness and joy. Very distinct and papable. Of course if someone takes a hard rational stance, all this can be put down to coincidence. But I personally do not think so. Infact these just proved the truth of Narasimhajis advice. Copper kundas are the best. Iron can increase effects of Shani in a person's life and sadhana. And Aluminium I believe is Rahu. The homa agni just amplified the effects. -Regards Rajarshi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Namaste, Thanks for sharing your experience. Yes, agni in homa amplifies the effects. But others may also note that these things depend on the individual and there are two main factors at play here. We perform karmas and we receive the fruits of those karmas. The order in which the fruits are received is in the hands of nature (god). Depending on the karma-fruit pipeline of a person, one may or may not see the fruit of certain action immediately. One with a deep pipeline may not see the result of performing homam in an iron homa kundam immediately. By the time the result comes, it may not be obvious why. On the other hand, one with a shallow pipeline may see the results relatively sooner and realize the correlation between action and result! Secondly, the deity being worshipped also matters. Suppose you offer spoiled milk to a friend. If he is a soft-natured person, he will drink a little, leave the rest and go away calmly. If he is blunt on the other hand, he will drink a little, tell you that the milk is spoiled and perhaps yell a little at you, give you a piece of his/her mind and then leave. Which kind of friends are better for you depends on your nature! Similarly, if you worship soumya devatas (Sadashiva, Lakshmi, Vishnu etc) and your worship has flaws, the deity ignores it and waits till you correct the flaws. If you worship ugra devatas (e.g. Bhairava, Rudra, Kaali, Narasimha etc) and your worship has flaws, the deity will ensure that you get the message sooner. * * * When you buy wood logs from some stores, they stick a big iron staple in a log or two so that the logs and the plastic wrapper stay together. We normally use the unstapled logs first and use the stapled logs after removing the iron staple. Oneday I ran out of logs and the only log I had had an iron staple. I decided to use it without removing the iron staple in it. I thought, " well, this is a Saturday and Saturn likes iron. Let me just offer it like this. " I did it and forgot about it later. That day, I had a really bad sprain in a muscle at the back of my lungs and suffered for two days. When doing the daily Chandi homam on Sunday, a thought suddenly came to me. I suddenly remembered that I put a log with a fat iron staple in it in fire the previous day. The thought that came to me was that I did a mistake and nature pointed it out to me in this way. When we make mistakes and nature shows our mistakes to us, we need not worry or panick. We should just learn the lesson and move on. * * * I still say that a homam in an iron or aluminum tray is still better than nothing. The gain is higher than loss due to mistake. But, one can try to avoid the mistake when it is possible.
