The homa at the Adivarapupeta ashram, Mahashivaratri of 2009.
Homa (or yagna) is a form of puja (worship) in which offerings are made to the gods through the medium of sacred fire.
Shivabalayogi always had a homa performed at each major function -- including on the annual occasions celebrating his birthday, tapas anniversary, and Mahashivaratri.  The practice is continued by devotees, not only in Adivarapupeta, but in Bangalore and elsewhere.
To understand the blessings and spiritual power that are received through homa (or any puja), one has to experience.
