📖 What Does Havan Mean?

In Indian religions, a homa, also known as homam or havan, is a fire ritual performed on special occasions. In Hinduism, by a Hindu priest usually for a homeowner. The grihastha keeps different kinds of fire including one to cook food, heat the home, among other uses; therefore, a yajna offering is made directly into the fire. A homa is sometimes called a "sacrifice ritual" because the fire destroys the offering, but a homa is more accurately a "votive ritual". The fire is the agent, and the offerings include those that are material and symbolic such as grains, ghee, milk, incense, and seeds.
