Sanatana Dharma has four Maha Ratri , Divali is Maha Ratri, Shivratri is Kala Ratri, Sri Krishna Janm is Moha Ratri, and Holi is Aho Ratri. All four of these ratri, a shadhak must stay awake and perform tapas. Every year each of these ratri there is designated time which is most conducive to tapas like this year the Lingodhbhav time was 12.27 to 1.16 AM. The March 19 full moon will be 221,567 miles from Earth, in contrast to the moon's average distance of about 239,000 miles. No full moon will be this close to Earth again until November 14, 2016. For instance 19 March 2011, 18:11 ... when the moon's unlit side is most exactly facing the Earth. Best place to find exact time is at NASA web site.
It is fashionable today to look down upon rituals and give empty talks about self improvement etc… Actually rituals and connecting to divinity go hand in hand not two sides of the river. All our sages and rishis did daily sandya, daily rituals and if any one needed help, they performed extensive Homa resuling in the Yajman getting the material and spiritual benefits.
Just as one cannot pay off a thousand dollar loan with a one dollar bill, similarly sufferings from serious karmas cannot be annulled with just one ritual. Any practice yields results with regularity. There are thousands of people now, who are doing a homa daily or weekly and experiencing the material and spiritual benefits.
It is not without a reason that fire had a prominent place in many ancient religions. Fire is a living representative of god on earth. It has a very powerful influence on one's consciousness and accelerates the purging of bad samskaras (through which planets give us troubles). There is no need to take someone's words for it - if one spends some time with fire on a regular basis, one will know this for oneself. You develop an affinity with Agni Devata.

Please pardon our site appearence, new material is still being uploaded/ added.

The Ati Rudra Maha Yagnam is very sacred and has been performed since the universe was created or even before, This yagya drives out the calamities and difficulties of mankind.
The Sri Rudram chant (called the Namakam) is an ancient Vedic hymn, and is the oldest example of a listing of various atributes of Lord Siva, THE SHIV TATVA or SHIV RAHASYA. Through the chanting of the Namakam, Lord Siva's various attributes and aspects are invoked and worshipped. Describing the several facets of Lord Shiva by reciting the Namakam is also called Rudra Prasnaor Rudra . The Rudra prasna can be done with or without the accompaniment of a Vedic yagna ritual. When accompanied with the Vedic fire ritual, it is called the Rudra Homam or the Rudra Yagnam. In the Taithareeya Samhita, 4th skanda (chapter) the 7th sub-stanza is known as Chamaka. In this section, the letters cha and mey appear repeatedly and it is hence known as Chamaka. Those who are interested in worldly gains and riches, pray to God to grant them all types of boons and hence this prayer is known as the Chamakam.
Eleven recitations of the Sri Rudram (Namakam) followed by one recitation of the Chamakam is called the Ekadasa Rudram. This also constitutes one unit of the Rudra Homam. Eleven Ekadasa Rudram recitations make one Laghu Rudram. (11x11=121 times of Namakam and 11 times recitation of Chamakam). This is achieved if 11 priests chant 11 times the Namakam and 1/11 of the Chamakam for every single recitation of the Namakam. [Editors Note: The Namakam and Chamakam are each divided into 11 anuvakyas or sections. Hence for each recitation of the Namakam they chant one anuvakya or 1/11 portion of the Chamakam].
Eleven Laghu Rudram recitations make a Maharudram (11x11x11=1331 Namakams and 121 Chamakams). This is achieved if everyday 11 priests chant 11 times for 11 days. And eleven Maharudram recitations make an Ati Rudram! Thus, in an Athi Rudra Maha Yagnam, the Namakam will be recited 14,641 times and the Chamakam 1331 times, with the performance of 1331 Rudra Homams by 121 Ritvik priests. (121 priests x 11 times per day over 11 days).
Sri Rudra as " The Father of the Universe" (bhuvanasya pitara) also associated with wind, storm at same time who is SHIV Verily kind. Who is Ghore terrible and "The Lord or Sovereign of the Universe" (īśānādasya bhuvanasya), who possesses of a thousand medicines or Vaidyanatha (Lord of Remedies). It is said the each word of SRI RUDRAM has hidden meaning and posses various remedies for incurable diseases.
