A Prayer for the Yajña
A prayer and ritual preparation for a sacred fire ceremony (yajña).
"We pray to Agnidev, to the Fire Lord, that for whatever mistakes in chanting or in offering we may commit during this yajña, we ask for forgiveness."
"We pray that the entire world remains in peace and unity, with good health for all."
An unseen speaker conducts the preliminary rites for a yajña, invoking divine forgiveness for any errors and seeking acceptance of the offerings made with devotion. The prayer includes offerings to the five elements (tattvas), meditation on the nine planets, and a final blessing for world peace, good health, and the fulfillment of personal intentions (saṅkalpa).
