The Ritual and Its Weight

The Sudarshana Homa is a fire rite addressed to the Sudarshana Chakra, the spinning discus that Lord Vishnu holds as his weapon of last resort. In the Vaishnava tradition the chakra is not an object but a living deity — Sudarshana Murti, sixteen-armed, flame-bodied, worshipped as the one who cuts through whatever cannot be reasoned with. When priests offer into the fire with the Sudarshana mantra, they are asking that discus to turn once around the devotee.

Devotees come to this homa when something feels wrong and has no name. Repeated obstruction. A house that will not settle. The sense of being watched, spoken against, or bound by another's ill will. The tradition prescribes the Sudarshana Homa precisely for such conditions — evil eye, abhichara, psychic disturbance, hostile intent — because the chakra is understood to dissolve what is directed rather than argue with it. At our Yagna Ashram the fire is kindled in your name and gotra, and you watch it burn from wherever you are.

ॐ सहस्रार हुं फट् । ॐ नमो भगवते महासुदर्शनाय दीप्त्रे ज्वालापरीताय सर्वदिक्क्षोभणकराय हुं फट् ब्रह्मणे परञ्ज्योतिषे स्वाहा ॥ Salutations to the radiant Lord Mahasudarshana of a thousand spokes, wreathed in blazing flame, who shakes every direction — to that supreme light I offer this oblation.

Why Devotees Book This

The Sudarshana Homam is turned to for one purpose above all: a shield. These are the concerns devotees name when they book it.

Against the evil eye

Drishti, nazar, the weight of another's envy — the tradition holds the chakra's fire to be the classical remedy when praise and jealousy have left a mark on your household.

Where abhichara is suspected

When a family fears black magic or deliberately worked harm, the Sudarshana Homa is the rite the shastras point to. It is offered to dissolve what was sent, not to send anything back.

Quiet for the mind

Devotees who describe restless sleep, unexplained dread or a heaviness in the chest offer this homa for inner steadiness. The mantra is chanted for calm, not for a cure.

Cleansing a home or workplace

A new house, a place where things repeatedly go wrong, a shop that will not thrive — the homa is prescribed to purify the atmosphere and settle the space.

When opposition is personal

Against slander, litigation and those who work against you by design, Sudarshana is invoked as the protector who removes obstruction from the path.

A standing shield for the family

Many book this homa annually for children, elders and travellers, keeping the chakra's protection over the whole household rather than one person.

Sacred timing

The most auspicious days for a Sudarshana Homa

Sudarshana is Vishnu's own weapon, so the calendar of Vishnu governs this homa. These are the occasions priests favour.

Ekadashi and Dwadashi

The eleventh and twelfth lunar days belong to Vishnu, and Sudarshana worship on them is considered especially potent.

Sundays and Saturdays

Sunday for the solar, blazing nature of the discus; Saturday for relief from persistent obstruction and lingering negative influence.

Shravana, Rohini and Punarvasu nakshatras

Stars associated with Vishnu are chosen when the homa is being done as a protective rite for the whole family.

Amavasya and the eclipse period

Priests often schedule protection homas around the new moon and after an eclipse, when purification of the home's atmosphere is traditionally undertaken.

You do not need to wait for one of these days. Whenever you book, our astrologers calculate the muhurta from your own birth chart — a date chosen for you personally, which tradition regards as more precise than a calendar date chosen for everyone. If you would like the homa on one of the days above, tell us at checkout and we will fix the muhurta within it.

Every package, and the 48-day option

What you receive

The sealing of the Sudarshana Yantra

The Sudarshana Yantra is consecrated over three days — Jala (holy-water consecration with mantras), Prana (life force through pranayama & chants) and Jeeva Pratishta (awakened with 108 recitations & offerings) — then present through your homa, receiving the energies raised in the fire. When your homa concludes, it is rolled and locked inside its silver amulet according to Agama vidhi — the practice by which those energies are held within a consecrated object rather than dispersing. It is why a homa performed at our ashram can still reach a devotee ten thousand miles away: what the fire raised travels to you, sealed.

Personal sankalpa

Your name, gotra & nakshatra — and up to four family members if you wish. No one else is named.

Live telecast

Watch your own homa in real time from the ashram. Streamed openly on our YouTube channel by default — or request an unlisted telecast at checkout.

Free energised Sudarshana Yantra, sealed in a silver amulet

Shipped to you with your prasadam.

Prasadam, shipped free

Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.

Yantra Pujas inside our consecrated sanctum

48-Day Anushthan (optional) — daily pujas for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches. Performed in our consecrated sanctum at the Yagna Ashram.

A note on sacred tradition

As per strict Agama vidhi, no videography is permitted inside the temple sanctum — this preserves the pure sacred energies and undisturbed divine focus of the ritual. The main homa is respectfully telecast live from outside the sanctum.

Homas are telecast openly on our YouTube channel so that devotees everywhere may witness the rituals — and because we believe you should be able to see our work before you trust us with yours. Your sankalpa names you and any family members you add, so if you would rather your ceremony were not public, choose the private telecast option at checkout and it is streamed as an unlisted link, which does not appear on our channel or in search, though anyone who has the link can watch it and share it.

We state this plainly — transparency about what tradition forbids filming, and about what is public, is part of performing these rituals honestly.

After it arrives

How to wear your energised Sudarshana Yantra

01

Your auspicious time to wear it

Wear it for the first time on the day named in your dispatch email, between 6.30 and 7.30 in the morning. Bathe first, place the yantra on your pooja altar and offer your prayers, then wear it around your neck or your waist, on a red or black thread or a silver chain.

02

At a funeral

Take the yantra off before you attend a funeral.

03

Purify the amulet

Whenever the yantra has been taken off, or if it was worn at a funeral, dip it in raw milk or Ganga jal, show it incense, dhoop or attar (perfume), and then wear it again.

04

Keep the energy intact

You may repeat this energising once a week or once a month.

Inside the fire ritual

How your Sudarshana Homa is performed

Priests performing the Sudarshana Homa at AstroBhava's Yagna AshramThese seven steps, as they happenFrom a live telecast at our Yagna Ashram
01

Sankalpa

The priest states your name, gotra and nakshatra — and those of up to four family members — with the intention this homa is performed for.

02

Ganapati Puja

The customary invocation to Ganapati, clearing obstacles before the deity is approached.

03

Agni Pratishtha

The fire is consecrated in the homa kunda and Agni invoked as the carrier of every offering that follows.

04

Sudarshana Avahana

The mula mantra of Sudarshana is chanted, inviting the deity's presence into the fire — by one, three or five priests as your package sets.

05

Ahuti

Ghee and akshata, with the flowers, grains and dravyas proper to this deity, are offered in sequence with mantra. Each priest makes 108 of these offerings with the mula mantra of Sudarshana — 108, 324 or 540 in all, by package.

06

Purnahuti

The final complete offering seals the sankalpa stated at the opening.

07

Aarti & Dispatch

Aarti is performed live on your telecast. Vibhuti, sandalwood powder, kumkum and your energised Sudarshana Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.

Who is invoked

Sudarshana

Sudarshana is the discus of Vishnu contemplated as a conscious deity in his own right. The Pancharatra Agamas, above all the Ahirbudhnya Samhita, describe him as the radiant wheel that is both weapon and will, an emanation that moves at the Lord’s command yet possesses independent agency and iconography. The name means “fair to behold” or “auspicious of sight,” yet the form is fierce: a thousand-spoked chakra whose rim blazes like a circle of suns, often given sixteen arms that hold the full complement of divine weapons. In the temple cultures of Srirangam, Kanchipuram and the Karnataka Vaishnava centres, Sudarshana receives separate homa, separate yantra and separate mantra, distinct from the service of the main Vishnu image. He is the swift edge of divine intention, the power that crosses every distance without leaving the Lord’s glance. Worship of the personified chakra therefore stands at the intersection of agama ritual and the epic memory of the weapon that never returns without fulfilling its purpose.

In this homa that grace is invoked through fire, with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

Questions

Frequently asked

The Sudarshana Homa, or Sudarshana Homam, is a Vedic fire ritual offered to Sudarshana Murti, the deity form of Lord Vishnu's discus, worshipped in the Vaishnava tradition as a living deity rather than an object. Ghee, herbs and traditional samagri are offered into the consecrated fire with mantra, invoking the chakra as a protective force around you. Its significance lies in its scope: where most remedial rites address one planet or one concern, Sudarshana is invoked against harm of every kind — seen, unseen, natural and deliberately worked. Our priests perform it at our Yagna Ashram, and you watch it live.
Devotees traditionally seek the Sudarshana Homa for protection from the evil eye, from abhichara or black magic, and from unseen negative energy directed at them or their family. Where deliberately worked harm is feared, it is offered to dissolve what was sent, never to send anything back. The benefits of Sudarshana Homa also include a steadier mind when sleep is restless or dread has no cause, offered alongside medical care and never in place of it; a settled atmosphere in a new house or a troubled workplace; and protection against slander and those who work against you by design. It is offered as prayer.
Anyone who feels the need of protection can have the Sudarshana Homa performed — there is no restriction of age, gender, caste or country. Families facing repeated inexplicable setbacks, those suspecting ill intent, people moving into a new home, and devotees who simply keep an annual protective rite all book it. The homa itself is conducted by our priests, trained in the Sudarshana tradition, at our Yagna Ashram, as one private ceremony for you and up to four members of your family, while you watch the live telecast.
Our priests perform the Sudarshana Homa at our Yagna Ashram as a single ceremony of purification, sankalpa, invocation, offering and purnahuti. They begin with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachana to purify the space. Your sankalpa is then declared with your name, gotra and nakshatra, and the protection you seek. Agni is kindled in the kunda, and Sudarshana is invoked. The ahutis follow: ghee, samidha of the appropriate wood, sesame, rice, flowers and traditional samagri, offered into the fire with mantra, every priest making their own offerings. The rite closes with purnahuti, the full oblation, followed by deeparadhana and prasadam. You watch it all on live telecast.
You can book the Sudarshana Homa with one, three or five priests. Each package is the complete homa, with the same ritual stages and the same kinds of offerings, performed privately for you and up to four family members and never combined with another booking. What changes is the number of priests: every priest makes their own ahutis, the offerings into the fire, and all of them perform at the same time, in one ceremony. An ahuti count is a count of these offerings, not a japa count, which measures repetitions of a mantra. Each priest makes 108 ahutis: 108 in all with one priest, 324 with three and 540 with five, in approximately 1 hour. A larger package adds priests and offerings, not a second ceremony. Choose the scale that fits your intention, preference and budget; the one-priest homa is complete in itself, and no package guarantees a particular result.
Yes. Our listed Sudarshana Homa packages specify standard ahuti counts and priest numbers. If your astrologer has prescribed a different count, we can arrange a customised homa following review by our priests. Please share your requirements with our Devotee Relationship Team on +91 96295 55442. The team will confirm the ahuti count, number of priests, approximate duration and total price before you book. Your customised homa remains a private ceremony dedicated to your sankalpa, never combined with other customers' bookings.
About an hour, whichever package you choose: the priests perform together and make their offerings at the same time, so three or five priests do not lengthen the ceremony. Your muhurta, the date and time, is confirmed by email within 24–48 working hours of booking, and the live telecast link arrives the day before, so you can follow every stage wherever you are.
You do not need to wait for an auspicious day. Whenever you book, our astrologers calculate the muhurta from your own birth chart — a date chosen for you personally, which tradition regards as more precise than a calendar date chosen for everyone. If you would prefer one of the days traditionally sacred to Sudarshana — Ekadashi or Dwadashi, a Sunday or Saturday, Shravana, Rohini or Punarvasu nakshatra, Amavasya, or the days after an eclipse — tell us in the notes at checkout and we will fix the muhurta within it. Our Panchang shows the tithi and nakshatra for any date.
Yes. What directs a homa is its sankalpa: the solemn resolve the priest makes before the fire is kindled, stating who the homa is for and what it is offered for. The deity invoked and the ritual remain the same; the purpose is yours, as your astrologer has advised it. So if you have been advised the Sudarshana Homa for a reason other than those on this page, write that purpose in your own words in the “Your sankalpa” box on the birth-details page, straight after payment, and the priest will state it in the sankalpa with your name, gotra and nakshatra. If the advice also names a date, a number of ahutis or a number of priests, mention it in the notes at checkout, or call our Devotee Relationship Team on +91 96295 55442 before you book.
Book the Sudarshana Homa online on this page, from India or from any other country; devotees living abroad book it the same way, and prices are shown in your currency. Choose one, three or five priests, and straight after payment add your name, gotra if you know it and your birth star, with your prayer for the homa in the “Your sankalpa” box. Your muhurta is confirmed by email within 24–48 working hours and the live telecast link arrives the day before, so you can watch the entire homa live, wherever you are. Afterwards, prasadam and your energised Sudarshana Yantra are couriered to you anywhere in the world, free of shipping cost.
Every Sudarshana Homa package includes the energised Sudarshana Yantra: a copper plate of about 1–2 inches, consecrated over three days and present in the fire through your homa. It is then rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet of about 2–4 inches, made to be worn, and couriered to you with your prasadam, free of shipping cost; the tracking email gives your personal time to wear it. If you add the optional 48-Day Anushthan, the yantra is also worshipped daily in our consecrated sanctum for 48 days before it is sealed.
Our silver amulets are specially made for everyday wear: copper is added to the silver to make them more durable. With regular use, the amulet may turn black, reddish or brown as it is exposed to heat and reacts with the chemicals in cosmetics. Wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cotton cloth, keep perfume and cosmetics away from it, and clean it by rubbing it gently with a pinch of vibhuti (sacred ash). Every six months, polish it with cotton dipped in a silver cleaner, but never soak or dip the amulet itself. Never open it, as the energies of the yantra are sealed inside. If it is ever damaged, send it back to us, not to a jeweller.
