Siva Puja and Advanced Yajna

By worshipping Siva, we cultivate the qualities of infinite consciousness, freedom from attachment, and freedom from bondage to this world of objects and relationships. We cultivate the attitude of perceiving the intrinsic reality, not the extrinsic appearance. We identify with that which does not change, and become the witness of the changes of nature. From this perception, we act and interact with the world remembering the eternal reality. We free ourselves from pain and fear, and see them as passing states of mind, accepting the will of God. This advanced puja contains a beginners puja, an intermediate puja, an advanced puja and a complete system for fire sacrifice. The yajna is the union between the fires burning in the ajna cakra, the light of meditation, and the howan kunda, the sacrificial altar. This union allows the sacrifice of all egotism and duality.
