Intro to Vedic Ceremony
One of the least understood forms of Spiritual Sadhana.  Ranging from basic Arati or Agnihotra to more elaborate 16 form (shodasho-pachara) from of Pujas, to elaborate yajna (fire ceremonies), these ceremonies are forms of religious ceremony performed according to precise procedures found in ancient Vedic scriptures.   The role of these ceremonies is explained in the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda, Sadguru Sant Keshavadas and others, as spiritual sadhana, taught by the ancient Rishis to achieve purification, inner transformation and the highest Samadhi.
