Unmatha Bhairava Homa

The Ritual and Its Weight

The Unmatha Bhairava Homa is an obstruction-removal fire rite addressed to Unmatha Bhairava, one of the eight Bhairava forms who guard the directions and the thresholds of time. Tradition turns to this form when progress has gone strangely heavy — approvals that never arrive, a marriage talk that keeps collapsing at the last step, a project that is always two weeks away from starting. Ghee, herbs and specific offerings are placed into the consecrated fire while the Bhairava mantra is chanted for a fixed count, with your name, gotra and sankalpa spoken aloud so the rite is worked on your behalf.

Bhairava is invoked not to frighten but to loosen. Unmatha means the ecstatic, unbound one — the form that will not be held by rule, fear or delay. The homa asks him to walk the stuck path ahead of you and clear it. At AstroBhava the fire is raised at our own Yagna Ashram in Pollachi, Coimbatore District by qualified priests, and telecast live to you wherever you are. You watch the flame that carries your name. Prasadam and an energised Unmatha Bhairava Yantra reach you afterwards by courier, anywhere in the world.

ॐ ह्रीं उन्मत्त भैरवाय नमः Salutations to Unmatha Bhairava, the unbound and ecstatic guardian — may he clear the path before me.

Why Devotees Book This

Devotees turn to the Unmatha Bhairava Homa when effort is honest but movement has stopped. The tradition prescribes it for these concerns.

Stalled Work Set Moving

Offered when a venture, build or application has sat unmoving for months despite repeated follow-up.

Repeated Last-Minute Collapse

Sought when agreements, alliances or offers keep falling through at the final step, again and again.

Delay in Paperwork and Approvals

Prescribed for prolonged waits on licences, visas, property documents, court dates and official clearances.

Obstacles Traced to Unseen Causes

Turned to when astrologers point to blockages in the chart, or when a place or a period feels persistently obstructed.

Courage to Push Through

Bhairava is invoked for nerve and clarity — to stop hesitating, choose a direction and act on it.

Protection on the Threshold

As guardian of doorways and turning points, Unmatha Bhairava is honoured before shifting home, launching work or beginning a long journey.

Sacred timing

The most auspicious days for an Unmatha Bhairava Homa

Bhairava rites carry their own hours.

Ashtami and Kalashtami

The eighth lunar day, especially Krishna Paksha Ashtami, is Bhairava's own tithi and the most sought day for this homa.

Tuesday and Sunday

Both weekdays suit fierce protective forms, and are commonly chosen for the unmatha bhairava homam when Ashtami is distant.

Bhairava Ashtami and Rahu Kaala Hours

Kala Bhairava Ashtami in Margashirsha is held especially potent; within a day, the Rahu Kaala window is traditionally used for Bhairava offerings.

Ardra, Bharani and Swati Nakshatras

These stars are favoured for obstruction-clearing fire rites, and are used when they fall in step with a suitable tithi.

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 Unmatha Bhairava Yantra

The Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava Homa is performed

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

Unmatha Bhairava Avahana

The mula mantra of Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava — 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 Unmatha Bhairava Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.

Who is invoked

Unmatha Bhairava

Among the eight Bhairavas who stand at the directions as Shiva's fierce guardians, this is the intoxicated one, whose name means unbound or ecstatic. Tradition places him in the north-west and describes a fair, wine-flushed form, often shown naked or lightly clad, garlanded, with a smiling and unsettling face, holding a skull-bowl, a trident and a noose, with the dog as his companion. He is Shiva's own wrath turned loose from restraint, a keeper of thresholds and of time, answerable to no rule that binds ordinary beings. Devotees approach this form when matters have gone strangely heavy and stationary, when fear, hesitation and delay have hardened around a life. Tradition holds him to govern the loosening of what is bound and the guarding of those who walk uncertain paths.

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

Questions

Frequently asked

The Unmatha Bhairava Homa, or Unmatha Bhairava Homam, is a Vedic fire ritual dedicated to Unmatha Bhairava, one of the eight Bhairava forms who guard the directions and the thresholds of time. Unmatha means the ecstatic, unbound one: the form that will not be held by rule, fear or delay. Its significance lies in Bhairava's role as the one who opens what has been shut, invoked not to frighten but to loosen. The rite is offered when work, documents, alliances or plans have stalled for reasons that ordinary effort cannot shift.
Tradition prescribes the Unmatha Bhairava Homa for clearing delays and hurdles blocking progress: work that will not start, approvals that never arrive, agreements that break at the last step. It is offered for prolonged waits on licences, visas, property documents and official clearances, and when astrologers point to blockage in the chart. It is also performed for courage and decisiveness, and for protection at turning points such as a move, a launch or a long journey. The homa is an offering made in faith.
Anyone facing a long run of obstruction may sponsor the Unmatha Bhairava Homa — a professional whose venture has stalled, a family waiting on property or marriage matters, a student caught in admission delays, or anyone advised by an astrologer that their chart shows blockage. You do not perform it yourself. Qualified priests at our Yagna Ashram perform it on your behalf, in your name and gotra, and you watch it on live telecast.
Our priests perform the Unmatha Bhairava Homa at our Yagna Ashram as a single ceremony of purification, sankalpa, invocation, offering and purnahuti. They begin with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachana, then the sankalpa in which your name, gotra and intention are declared. The kunda is prepared and Agni invoked, and Unmatha Bhairava is installed and worshipped. The ahutis of cow ghee, samidha, black sesame, mustard, herbs, flowers and traditional Bhairava offerings are made with mantra, every priest making their own offerings. The rite closes with purnahuti, aarti and prayers for your welfare, and you watch it all on live telecast.
You can book the Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava — Ashtami, above all the Ashtami of the waning fortnight and Kalashtami, a Tuesday or Sunday, Kala Bhairava Ashtami in Margashirsha, or Ardra, Bharani or Swati 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 Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava 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 Unmatha Bhairava Yantra are couriered to you anywhere in the world, free of shipping cost.
Every Unmatha Bhairava Homa package includes the energised Unmatha Bhairava 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.
