Namaskar Dear all,
I would like to take the chance to ask you something I could not find in the website: I was looking for a ritual called "Agnihotra", a fire ritual mentioned in ancient Vēdic scriptures which is performed to reduce pollution and spiritually purify the atmosphere. When I looked up in the gnosticteachings website I just found a reference to sacred sexual intercourse (https://gnosticteachings.org/scriptures/hindu/2222-maithuna-in-tantra-shastra-and-veda.html), but I was actually looking for this rite: https://www.spiritualresearchfoundation.org/spiritual-healing/healing-using-objects/how-to-perform-agnihotra/. So, I was asking myself why the word "Agnihotra" is used to identify two different rituals.
Gratitude
Elena
