Dear friends,
Prayer and connection with the Divine - through the sacred tools of Vedic culture, preserved and passed down through generations - offer a rare opportunity to purify the mind, uplift our lives, and welcome miracles into our reality.
The most profound transformation comes from what we do consistently - especially in spiritual practice.
That’s why each year, we open registration for our Ritual Subscriptions: a series of temple rituals performed regularly in India, independent of holidays or special events.
We warmly invite you to take part online in these sacred rituals, held from July to December 2025, as part of our 6-Month Subscription Program.
All rituals are performed by hereditary Brahmins in sacred temples across India.
You can book a ritual subscription for 1, 3, or 6 months.
There are several types of rituals in Indian temples.
The main ones are divided into 3 types:
- Archana
- Pooja
- Homa/yagya/havan
Archana - "veneration, glorification." This is a ritual of exalting the symbol or image of the Deity with the utterance of mantras, as well as the name and nakshatra of the one who ordered Archana. Done in front of the appropriate altar during the service.
Pooja - "worship". This is a ritual of deeper and more intimate appeal to the image or symbol of the Deity with the recitation of a series of mantras, offerings in the form of fruits and flowers, as well as repeated recitation of the name and nakshatra of the one who ordered the Puja. The impact of the puja is considered to be stronger and more lasting than the Archanas.
Homa is a fire ritual or fire sacrifice (feeding the fire, which gives food to the gods to whom Homa is addressed). Often a separate altar or hearth is built for the homa. This is the most profound, intimate and powerful appeal to the Divine. Homa is usually ordered not for 1 person, but for the whole family.
In India, before any important undertaking or event, people visit temples to enlist the support and blessings of higher powers. They seek to attract good luck and success into their lives, which require the participation of all forces of nature and the world, from the divine to the elemental.
These rituals aim to obtain a variety of benefits, such as health, prosperity, family growth, peace of mind, overcoming obstacles, getting rid of negative karma, etc.
