The Bheeshana Bhairava Homa is a protective fire rite addressed to one of the eight Bhairavas — the terrible-formed guardians Shiva set at the eight directions to watch over the worlds. Bheeshana means the one whose very appearance scatters fear. Tradition places him where danger is invisible: the ill-wishing glance, the muttered spell, the heaviness that settles on a house without cause. Ghee, protective herbs and rakshoghna offerings go into the fire as the priests chant his names, and the flame is asked to draw a boundary around you.
Devotees turn to this homam when ordinary remedies feel thin — when sleep is broken, when quarrels erupt in a settled household, when a family senses that something has been directed at them. The tradition does not ask you to name the source. It asks you to place the burden in the fire and let the guardian answer. At our Yagna Ashram the rite is performed on your behalf and streamed to you live, so you witness every oblation offered in your name and gotra.
ॐ ह्रीं भीषण भैरवाय नमः Salutations to Bheeshana Bhairava, the awe-inspiring guardian form of Shiva, whose presence scatters fear and every hostile force.
Why Devotees Book This
What the tradition prescribes the Bheeshana Bhairava Homa for:
A shield against the evil eye
Offered when a family feels the weight of envious attention — drishti dosha — and seeks the guardian's cover over children, home and livelihood.
Relief from directed negativity
The classical remedy sought when black magic, abhichara or malefic ritual is suspected to have been aimed at a household.
Cleansing of the dwelling
Rakshoghna oblations are made to clear the atmosphere of a home, shop or workspace that has felt heavy, restless or unaccountably tense.
Steadiness of mind
Invoked by those troubled by fear at night, disturbed sleep or a persistent unease with no visible cause, seeking the courage Bhairava is said to grant.
Protection for travel and exposure
Sought by devotees who move constantly, work in unfamiliar places, or feel unguarded away from their family deity and home shrine.
Guardianship at the boundary
Bhairava is the kshetrapala, keeper of the threshold. The homam asks him to stand at the edges of your life and refuse entry to what does not belong.

Sacred Timing
Bhairava worship follows the dark and fierce hours. These are the occasions our priests favour for the bheeshana bhairava homam:
Ashtami tithi
The eighth lunar day, and especially Kalashtami of the waning fortnight, is the classical day for all Bhairava rites.
Tuesday and Sunday
The days ruled by Mangala and Surya carry protective, fierce energy and are long held suitable for guardian deities.
Bharani, Krittika and Ardra nakshatras
Stars of intensity and transformation, traditionally chosen when a protective fire rite is to be kindled.
Rahu kalam and Bhairava Ashtami
Bhairava is worshipped in the Rahu hour, and Kala Bhairava Ashtami in Margashirsha is the most powerful annual occasion for this homam.
Every package, and the 48-day option
What you receive
The sealing of the yantra
When your homa concludes, the yantra that stood in the fire is rolled and locked inside its silver amulet according to Agama vidhi — the practice by which the energies raised in a ritual are held within a consecrated object rather than dispersing. It is why a homa performed at our ashram can still reach a devotee ten thousand miles away: what the fire raised travels to you, sealed.
Personal sankalpa
Your name, gotra & nakshatra — for you and up to five family members.
Live telecast
Watch your own homa in real time from the ashram. Streamed openly on our YouTube channel by default — or request a private, unlisted telecast at checkout.
Free energised Bheeshana Bhairava Yantra, sealed in a silver amulet
Consecrated over three days — Jala (holy-water consecration with mantras), Prana (life force through pranayama & chants) and Jeeva Pratishta (awakened with 108 recitations & offerings) — then present through your homa, receiving the energies raised in the fire. Immediately afterwards it is rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet by Agamic rite, locking those energies within, and shipped to you with your prasadam.
Prasadam, shipped free
Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.
48-Day Anushthan (optional)
Daily temple worship for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches.
A note on sacred tradition
As per strict Agama vidhi, no videography is permitted inside the temple sanctum — this preserves the pure sacred energies and undisturbed divine focus of the ritual. The main homa is respectfully telecast live from outside the sanctum; the daily rituals of the 48-day Anushthan are performed with full devotion but are not telecast.
Homas are telecast openly on our YouTube channel so that devotees everywhere may witness the rituals — and because we believe you should be able to see our work before you trust us with yours. Your sankalpa names you and your family, so if you would rather your ceremony were not public, choose the private telecast option at checkout and it is streamed as an unlisted link visible only to you.
We state this plainly — transparency about what tradition forbids filming, and about what is public, is part of performing these rituals honestly.

Who is invoked
Bheeshana Bhairava — the goddess of knowledge itself
Bheeshana Bhairava is one of the Tridevi and the mother of the Vedas — the presiding deity of knowledge, learning, memory, speech, music and every art. She is depicted in white upon a white lotus, holding the veena, a book, a rosary and a water pot, with the swan of discernment beside her.
In this homa, her grace — Bheeshana Bhairava Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

The Bheeshana Bhairava Homa is a Vedic fire ritual addressed to Bheeshana Bhairava, one of the eight fierce guardian forms of Shiva stationed at the directions. Bheeshana means the awe-inspiring one, whose form frightens away fear itself. The homam is performed with ghee, protective herbs and rakshoghna oblations while his mantras are chanted, and it is traditionally undertaken for protection from negative energy, evil eye and unseen harm.
Tradition prescribes this homam for shielding the family from drishti dosha and ill-wishing, for relief where black magic or abhichara is suspected, for clearing the atmosphere of a home or workplace, for steadiness of mind and freedom from nameless fear, and for the guardian's protection while travelling or living away from home. These are the purposes the scriptures assign to the rite; the fruit rests with the deity and your own devotion.
It is booked by anyone who feels surrounded by negativity — households facing repeated unexplained obstacles, families who sense envious attention on their children or business, people troubled by disturbed sleep and unease, and those advised by an astrologer that protective remedies are indicated in their chart. You do not need to attend or perform anything yourself. Qualified priests conduct the homam on your behalf at our Yagna Ashram, in your name, gotra and nakshatra.
Ashtami tithi, particularly Kalashtami in the waning fortnight, is the classical day for Bhairava. Tuesdays and Sundays are favoured, as are the nakshatras Bharani, Krittika and Ardra. Kala Bhairava Ashtami in the month of Margashirsha is the most significant annual occasion. Our priests select the muhurat from the panchang once you book, and confirm the date and time with you in advance.
The priests begin with sankalpa in your name, gotra and birth star, followed by Ganapati puja and punyahavachana for purification. The kalasha is established and Bheeshana Bhairava is invoked into the kundam. Agni is kindled and the mantra oblations are offered with ghee, samidha, protective herbs, black sesame, mustard and rakshoghna dravyas. The rite closes with purnahuti, arati, raksha bandhana and prayers for your household. You watch the whole sequence on live telecast, and prasadam with an energised yantra is couriered to you worldwide at no extra cost.
Book online from any country on this page. Share the names, gotra and birth stars of those to be included in the sankalpa. Our team confirms an auspicious date, sends you the live stream link before the homam begins, and dispatches your prasadam and energised yantra by courier once the fire has been completed.
