Yagyas are Vedic Performances for Life Supporting Effects.

Maharishi Yagya performances work by means of the principle of action and reaction. The experience of our daily lives shows that we are repeatedly confronted with unforeseen and often unwanted trends and events. To avert any danger before it may arise, Maharishi Jyotish uses Maharishi Yagya performances.

Maharishi Yagya performances are Vedic performances that create life-supporting effects in order to amend or avoid any unwanted tendency before it manifests. Based upon the thorough study of Life Kundali (birth horoscope), Maharishi Yagya recommendations are made by Panel of Jyotish experts.

All our thoughts, words, and actions generate influences in the environment, which reflect back to us. This can be compared with the situation of throwing a stone into a pond. Such an action at the shore produces waves, which then travel throughout the pond. Once they reach the far shore, they will be reflected back, and eventually return to their place of origin.

The Maharishi Jyotish is that science and technology which is able to calculate and then predict the type of influence that has been created by our past actions, and which will return to us at a particular time and place. Based upon this highly specific analysis, Maharishi Yagya recommendations are made. If the influence approaching us is not favourable, a Maharishi Yagya performance is needed that will generate the specific life supporting influences to neutralize it. If the influence approaching us is favourable, then Maharishi Yagya performances are recommended to enhance our good fortune. This is the whole process of the Maharishi Yagya technology; to know the influence of the life trends that are going to come, and to know how to generate the appropriate life-supporting influences that will either counteract or enhance these trends.

Predictions from the Maharishi Jyotish help us become aware of our future life trends so that Maharishi Yagya performances can be scheduled in due time. This is very important since the Maharishi Yagya is more effective when utilized before the trends or events have begun to manifest in our lives. The Maharishi Jyotish together with Maharishi Yagya performances provide a very powerful technology to help avert or minimize problems and enhance success in all areas of life.

Maharishi Yagya performances are done for individuals, families, companies, organizations and countries. The correct performance of a Maharishi Yagya procedure from the level of pure consciousness by properly trained Vedic Pundits (experts in Yagya performance) is essential.

There are many kinds of Yagyas. Graha Shanti (peace of planets or harmony with planets) are Maharishi Yagya performances to bring life in tune with the cycles of Nature responsible for delivering the results of one's past actions. They promote good fortune and neutralize any negativity before it can arise. Graha Shanti Yagyas help to pacify the negative influence of planets in advance for greater success in life

In addition to Graha Shanti Yagyas, Maharishi Special Yagya are also performed to bring support of Nature to any area of life including: health, peace of mind, harmonious family relationships, increased wealth, business success, and spiritual progress etc.

Birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and the birth of a child are all highly significant moments in the blossoming of life. Maharishi Yagyas bring support of Nature to the individual and the family at these special times when specific Laws of Nature are particularly lively and accessible.

Maharishi Yagyas are also offered to prevent problems and improve the fortune of an entire nation. These are very powerful application of the technology of Maharishi Yagya on a national scale. These National Yagyas are performed for many days or weeks, depending on the size of the desired effect and the magnitude of the problem being averted or defused—for example a natural disaster, violent outbreak, or severe economic downturn.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi dedicated many years to the careful, systematic revival of Yagya, restoring this ancient technology to its full power. He revived the crucial understanding that Vedic Mantras should be projected from awareness grounded in the Transcendental level of speech, where the link between sound and form— between desire and fulfilment of desire — is intimately connected and enormously powerful. Maharishi defined two aspects as essential for the proper practice of Vedic Yagya:

First, through their daily practice of the TM and TM-Siddhi programme, Maharishi Vedic Pundits experience profoundly settled states of awareness. The result is enlivenment of the Transcendent source of speech prior to the recitation and performance of Yagya. Consequently, the Maharishi Vedic Pundits perform Yagyas from this very settled level of consciousness and engage deeper levels of natural law. In addition, the Maharishi Vedic Pundits are all Siddhas who practice group Transcendental Meditation, TM-Siddhi Programme and Yogic flying before performing the Yagyas. This ensures that the Vedic Mantras can be projected from awareness grounded in Para (the Transcendental level) where the effect will be much more powerful.

Second, Maharishi Vedic Pundits must undergo unique and comprehensive training. Over several decades Maharishi worked closely with the most revered senior Yagyic Pundits from across India in order to refine and institute the perfect education of Vedic Pundits. This education ensures that they learn the proper practice and pronunciation with correct swaras, in its full traditional effectiveness.

This is why a Maharishi Yagya has such a powerful and extensive effect.
