The Ritual and Its Weight

The Sri Suktha Homa takes the Sri Sukta — a hymn appended to the Rig Veda, fifteen verses long — and offers it into consecrated fire, syllable by syllable. Each verse calls Mahalakshmi by a different quality: she who is golden, she who is moist with rain, she who arrives with the horse and the elephant and the sound of them, she who removes want. Where recitation alone speaks the hymn, the homa gives it a mouth. Agni carries every line to the Goddess along with ghee, lotus, bilva and grain.

This is the rite the tradition prescribes when wealth will not settle. Money that comes and vanishes. Income that arrives in bursts and then stops. Debt that grows faster than repayment. The Sri Sukta does not ask only for gold; it asks for sthira Lakshmi — prosperity that stays, and the discipline, opportunity and clear judgement that let it stay. Held at the Maha tier, the homa is performed at length, with full ritual measure, at our Yagna Ashram and telecast live to wherever you sit.

हिरण्यवर्णां हरिणीं सुवर्णरजतस्रजाम् । चन्द्रां हिरण्मयीं लक्ष्मीं जातवेदो म आवह ॥ O Agni, knower of all beings, bring to me that Lakshmi who is golden-hued and radiant, garlanded in gold and silver, luminous as the moon and made of gold herself.
Before you choose

What a Maha Homa is

Not every fire ritual is performed at the same scale. A Maha Homa is our largest form — more priests, a longer fire, and the complete chanting sequence the rite prescribes rather than an abridged one. This is what that means in practice.

Priests5 or 10Chanting in unison, never in rotation
The fire burnsApprox. 2 hoursFrom the sankalpa to the final aarti
ChantedIn fullThe complete sequence the rite calls for, not an excerpt
TelecastEvery minuteNothing is performed off camera

A Maha Homa is never a group ceremony, the same as any homa we conduct. What the scale changes is the weight of the offering — ten trained voices holding one hymn for two hours is a different undertaking from one voice for an hour, and it is reserved for the intentions that warrant it.

Why Devotees Book This

The Sri Sukta homam benefits the tradition names are not about sudden fortune. They are about wealth that holds its shape. Devotees book the Sri Suktha Homa for these intentions.

Steady income

Offered when earnings arrive irregularly, for the settled, repeating flow the hymn calls sthira Lakshmi.

Relief from debt

Prescribed by tradition for those carrying loans and dues, seeking the means and clarity to close them in order.

Prosperity that stays

The Sri Sukta asks not merely for gain but for wealth that does not leak away — the removal of alakshmi, want and disorder.

Stability in business and livelihood

Taken up by shopkeepers, traders and professionals before a new venture, a new season, or a difficult stretch.

Grace on the home

Lakshmi is invoked as one who dwells where cleanliness, order and dharma are kept, blessing the household as a whole.

Clarity in money decisions

The hymn asks for buddhi alongside dhana — the discernment to hold and use what comes.

Sacred timing

The most auspicious days for a Sri Suktha Homa

These are the occasions the tradition favours.

Fridays

The day of Shukra and of the Goddess. The most common day chosen for Sri Sukta offerings.

Shukla Paksha, especially Purnima

The waxing fortnight mirrors increase. Full moon nights are held to be particularly fitting for Mahalakshmi rites.

Varalakshmi Vratam, Navaratri and Diwali Lakshmi Puja

The great Lakshmi occasions of the year, when devotees across households turn to her together.

Rohini, Shravana and Uttara Phalguni nakshatras

Stars associated with abundance, sustenance and settled fortune, chosen when the calendar allows.

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

What you receive

The Sri Suktha Yantra sealed inside the sacred silver amulet
An actual amulet received by a devotee. Your Sri Suktha Yantra is a copper plate approx. 1–2 inches, rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet approx. 2–4 inches. Sizes are approximate and the amulet's design varies between supplier batches — shape, metal and consecration remain the same.

The sealing of the Sri Suktha Yantra

The Sri Suktha 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.

This is what arrives at your door, at no extra cost, with your prasadam.

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.

After it arrives

How to wear your energised Sri Suktha Yantra

01

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.

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 Sri Suktha Homa is performed

Priests performing the Sri Suktha 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

Mahalakshmi Avahana

The Sri Sukta is chanted, inviting the deity's presence into the fire — by five or ten priests as your scale sets.

05

Ahuti

Ghee and akshata, with the flowers, grains and dravyas proper to this deity, are offered in sequence with mantra.

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 Sri Suktha Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.

Who is invoked

Mahalakshmi

Golden of hue, seated on a lotus that floats on still water, she holds lotuses in two hands while the others give and reassure. Elephants pour water over her; gold falls from her palm. The Sri Sukta, appended to the Rig Veda, calls her Hiranyavarna, Harini, Chandra, moist with rain, arriving with horse and elephant and the sound of them. In the Puranas she rises from the churned ocean and stands beside Vishnu as his consort and his power to sustain. The tradition holds her to govern not gold alone but abundance in every form: grain, cattle, fortune, beauty, and the steadiness that keeps them. Devotees turn to this form when they seek sthira Lakshmi, prosperity that settles and remains, together with the judgement that keeps it.

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

Questions

Frequently asked

The Sri Suktha Homa, also called the Sri Suktha Homam, is a Maha fire ritual in which the Rig Vedic Sri Sukta is chanted and offered into consecrated Agni for Mahalakshmi, with ghee, lotus, bilva leaves, grain and sesame going into the flame with each verse. The hymn addresses Mahalakshmi as golden, moon-bright and lotus-seated, and asks her to drive away want and to remain. Its significance lies in that request: not a windfall but prosperity that endures, with the food, dwelling and clear mind that make it liveable. Chanting the hymn is meritorious; offering it through Agni is the fuller form the tradition prescribes.
The Sri Sukta homam benefits that tradition names are steady income, relief from the burden of debt, stability in business and livelihood, prosperity that does not drain away, grace upon the household, and clarity in matters of money. It is performed as a prayer and an offering: what it does is place your intention, in your name, into the fire with the Goddess's own hymn.
This homa is booked by those with irregular earnings, those clearing loans, business owners entering a new financial year, families seeking stability, and anyone in a Shukra or wealth-related planetary period. The rite itself must be performed by priests trained in Vedic recitation and fire ritual, because the Sri Sukta's svaras have to be exact; the sankalpa, however, is yours. Our priests perform it on your behalf at our Yagna Ashram, as one private ceremony for you and up to four family members, and it is streamed to you live wherever you are.
Our priests perform it at our Yagna Ashram in order: purification of the space and the ritual articles; the sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra; Ganapati puja to clear obstacles; kalasha sthapana and the invocation of Mahalakshmi; and Agni pratishtha, the kindling and consecration of the fire. The Sri Sukta is chanted in full, with an offering at each verse, every priest making their own offerings of cow ghee, red lotus, bilva and tulasi, sesame, rice, jaggery, navadhanya, dry fruits, camphor and kumkum with the specified ritual woods. Purnahuti and deeparadhana close the rite, and you watch it all on live telecast.
You can book the Sri Suktha Homa with five or ten 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 completes 12 complete recitations of the Sri Sukta: 60 in all with five priests and 120 with ten, in approximately 2 hours. A larger package adds priests and offerings, not a second ceremony. Choose the scale that fits your intention, preference and budget; the five-priest homa is complete in itself, and no package guarantees a particular result.
Yes. Our listed Sri Suktha Homa packages specify standard ritual quantities 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 requested recitation or offering 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.
Approximately two hours, whichever package you choose: the priests perform together and make their offerings at the same time, so ten 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 Mahalakshmi — a Friday, any day of the waxing fortnight and above all Purnima, Varalakshmi Vratam, Navaratri, Diwali Lakshmi Puja, or Rohini, Shravana or Uttara Phalguni nakshatra — 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 Sri Suktha 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 recitations 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 Sri Suktha 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 five or ten 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 Sri Suktha Yantra are couriered to you anywhere in the world, free of shipping cost.
Every Sri Suktha Homa package includes the energised Sri Suktha 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.
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.
