Also spelled Panchamukha Hanuman Homam
पञ्चमुख हनुमान होमFive faces turned to five directions, one fire between them — the guard Hanuman keeps around a home when unseen harm draws near.
The Panchamukha Hanuman Homa is a fire rite offered to Hanuman in his five-faced form — Hanuman facing east, Narasimha facing south, Garuda facing west, Varaha facing north, and Hayagriva looking upward. Tradition says he took this form to extinguish five lamps burning in five directions at once, and so ended the sorcery of Ahiravana who had carried Rama and Lakshmana to the netherworld. That story is the heart of the rite. Where harm can come from any side, the protector must be able to look every way at the same moment.
This is why the Panchamukha Hanuman homam is turned to when a household feels watched, drained or interfered with — the shadow of an evil eye, whispered ill-will, ritual harm worked at a distance, disturbed sleep, or a run of obstruction no one can name. The Maha form of this homa is a long, dense sitting: the five faces are invoked one by one, each with its own offerings, and the fire is fed until the whole circle of directions has been addressed. Nothing is asked of you but your sankalpa and your name, gotra and birth star.
ॐ श्रीरामदूताय हनुमन्ताय पञ्चवक्त्राय महाबलाय आञ्जनेयाय नमो नमः Salutations again and again to Anjani's son, the messenger of Rama, the five-faced one of vast strength.The tradition prescribes this rite for households and individuals seeking cover from unseen harm. What follows is what the shastra assigns to the fire, offered in your name.
The five faces are invoked toward east, south, west, north and upward, so no quarter is left unattended in the sankalpa.
Prescribed traditionally where drishti or ill-will is suspected — after sudden reversals, or when a home feels heavy without cause.
Turned to when black magic or ritual harm worked from a distance is feared, following the Ahiravana episode the rite recalls.
Narasimha and Hayagriva among the five faces are invoked for courage and clarity when fear, dread or restlessness settle in.
Families book this for a new house, a disturbed dwelling, or children and elders they want kept under Hanuman's watch.
Also sought where enmity, litigation or persistent obstruction shadows work and livelihood.
Every priest who performs your Panchamukha Hanuman Homa is trained in a traditional Padashala and personally recruited by Brahmashree Shivaaya — Guru and Head of Astrological & Spiritual Solutions at AstroBhava. Your ritual is conducted at our own Yagna Ashram — never a rented venue — with temple rites performed across our seven temples in Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
Meet our priests →Not every fire ritual is performed at the same scale. A Maha Homa is our largest form — more priests, a longer fire, and the complete chanting sequence the rite prescribes rather than an abridged one. This is what that means in practice.
A Maha Homa is performed for one devotee and their named family, the same as any homa we conduct. What the scale changes is the weight of the offering — ten trained voices holding one hymn for two hours is a different undertaking from one voice for an hour, and it is reserved for the intentions that warrant it.
Both packages are the same rite. The complete Panchamukha Hanumanm, all thirty-one verses, over approximately two hours, with the same offerings, the same free energised Surya Yantra sealed in its silver amulet, and the same live telecast. What changes is how many trained voices carry the hymn at once.

Hanuman's days carry this rite best. If your date is fixed by need rather than calendar, our priests will find a suitable muhurat — the fire does not turn anyone away.
The two weekdays held sacred to Hanuman. Saturday is especially favoured when Shani's transit is heavy and protection is the intent.
Nakshatras traditionally associated with Hanuman's strength and with rites of warding. Chitra is also accepted by many lineages.
The birth observance — Chaitra Purnima in the north, Margazhi Moola in the Tamil reckoning. The most charged day of the year for this homa.
Chosen when the concern is abhichara or psychic disturbance, as these tithis are traditionally used for rites of removal.
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.
Your name, gotra & nakshatra — for you and up to five family members.
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.
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.
Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.
Daily temple worship for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches.
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.
The energised yantra is carefully rolled and sealed inside a sacred silver amulet before shipping. Wearing it is itself a small ritual — and even its timing is set for you personally.
Our astrologer marks the auspicious date and time to wear the yantra according to your birth details — sent to you in the email carrying your shipment's tracking number.
Dip the silver amulet in raw milk or Ganga jal for an hour before wearing, then clean with normal water.
Perform the wearing process facing east or north for maximum benefit.
Show lamp and incense to the amulet before wearing it.
Around your neck or waist, on a thread or chain.
Repeated offering of dheep and dhoop keeps the energisation alive.
Place the amulet at your puja altar, or keep it in your wallet.
The priest states your name, gotra and nakshatra — and those of up to five family members — with the intention this homa is performed for.
The customary invocation to Ganapati, clearing obstacles before the goddess is approached.
The fire is consecrated in the homa kunda and Agni invoked as the carrier of every offering that follows.
The Panchamukha Hanuman Sukta and Panchamukha Hanuman Gayatri are chanted, inviting the goddess's presence into the fire — by one, three or five priests as your package sets.
Ghee, white flowers, akshata and honey are offered in sequence with mantra — the offerings traditional to her worship.
The final complete offering seals the sankalpa stated at the opening.
Aarti is performed live on your telecast. Vibhuti, sandalwood powder, kumkum and your energised yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.
Panchamukha Hanuman 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 — Panchamukha Hanuman Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.
