FAQs
It teaches that outer ritual (homa) should culminate in inner transformation—placing the sacred fire within oneself—so worship becomes an inward Shaiva discipline leading toward purity and liberation.
The homa is a Saguna, ritual mode of worship offered to Shiva; internalizing the fire points toward the subtler contemplation behind worship, aligning outer offerings with inner devotion and awareness.
Complete the homa properly, then practice an inner “agni-dhāraṇā” (installing the sacred fire in the heart) and perform prātaḥ-sandhyā as daily purification before further Shiva-upāsanā.
