The Ritual and Its Weight
The Baneshi Homam belongs to the family of marriage rites in the Vedic fire tradition. Where a horoscope shows the seventh house pressed upon, where proposals arrive and dissolve, where a household has grown weary of waiting — this is the homam the tradition turns to. Ghee, grains, sesame and fragrant woods are offered into the consecrated fire while the sankalpa carries your name, your star and your intention into the flame.
Marriage in our tradition is never treated as a private arrangement alone. It is a knot tied in the presence of Agni, and Agni is asked first. The Baneshi Homam is that asking. Priests seat the fire, invoke Baneshi, and place each offering with mantra so that obstruction loosens, tempers cool, and the path to a suitable alliance is prayed clear. Devotees also book the baneshi homam for an existing marriage that has turned brittle — for the return of patience and warmth between two people.
Benefits of the Baneshi Homam
The Baneshi Homam is prescribed in the Love & Marriage tradition for these intentions. What follows is what the rite is offered for, in the words of the tradition.
For a suitable life partner
Offered when the search for a match has gone on long — a prayer for the right alliance to appear and hold.
For delays that keep repeating
Traditionally taken up when talks advance and then stall again and again, to pray such obstruction away.
For harmony between husband and wife
Sought by couples living with friction, coldness or constant argument, asking for patience and affection to return.
For the strength of the seventh house
Performed on the counsel of an astrologer when marriage-related placements in the chart are seen as needing propitiation.
For peace in the wider household
Marriage joins two families. The homam is offered so that goodwill, not suspicion, surrounds a new alliance.
For a family carrying the worry
Parents and siblings often book the baneshi homam on behalf of an unmarried son or daughter, wherever in the world they live.

The most auspicious days for a Baneshi Homam
Marriage rites are timed with care.
Fridays, and the waxing fortnight generally, are held auspicious for rites of union and increase — a favoured day for this homam.
The nakshatras long counted as vivaha-friendly. Where the calendar allows, the homam is set on one of these.
The classical marriage season in the Hindu calendar, when alliances are traditionally begun and blessed.
Many devotees have the homam performed in the days before an engagement, a horoscope match or the wedding itself.
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 homam on one of the days above, tell us at checkout and we will fix the muhurta within it.
What you receive
The sealing of the Baneshi Yantra
The Baneshi 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 homam, receiving the energies raised in the fire. When your homam 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 homam 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.

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 homam 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.
How to wear your energised Baneshi Yantra
Your auspicious time to wear it
Wear it for the first time on a Friday, 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.
At a funeral
Take the yantra off before you attend a funeral.
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.
Keep the energy intact
You may repeat this energising once a week or once a month.
How your Baneshi Homam is performed
Sankalpa
The priest states your name, gotra and nakshatra — and those of up to four family members — with the intention this homam is performed for.
Ganapati Puja
The customary invocation to Ganapati, clearing obstacles before the deity is approached.
Agni Pratishtha
The fire is consecrated in the homa kunda and Agni invoked as the carrier of every offering that follows.
Baneshi Avahana
The mula mantra of Baneshi Devi is chanted, inviting the deity's presence into the fire — by one, three or five priests as your package sets.
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 Baneshi Devi — 108, 324 or 540 in all, by package.
Purnahuti
The final complete offering seals the sankalpa stated at the opening.
Aarti & Dispatch
Aarti is performed live on your telecast. Vibhuti, sandalwood powder, kumkum and your energised Baneshi Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.
Baneshi Devi
Baneshi Devi is the Goddess this homam is named for — a regional form of Devi, received by her own name in the ashram's tradition. Hers is the fire devotees light for the union still waiting to happen: the partner unmet, the wedding postponed, the home that wants peace.
In the homam she is honoured as Devi is honoured. Agni is kindled as witness and carrier, her mula mantra is chanted, and each offering rises with her name spoken over it — in the name, gotra and nakshatra of the devotee for whom this fire alone burns.
In this homam that grace is invoked through fire, with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.
