Also spelled Purusha Sukta Homam
पुरुषसूक्त होमThe Veda's oldest hymn to the Cosmic Being, chanted into living fire on your behalf — for devotion that steadies and grace that quietens the heart.
The Purusha Sukta is one of the most revered hymns of the Rig Veda. It describes the Purusha — the Cosmic Being whose body is the visible universe, whose thousand heads and thousand eyes are every creature that lives. In the Purusha Suktha Homa, these sixteen verses are chanted into consecrated fire, mantra by mantra, with each offering surrendered to that one Being. The rite is not a petition for a single thing. It is an act of remembering where you came from.
Because the hymn is chanted in nearly every major Vedic ritual as an act of self-offering, the purusha sukta homam is treated as a Maha homa — a rite of high order, done with full ritual detail and a longer chanting sequence. Devotees turn to it when they want their practice to deepen, when the mind will not settle, and when they wish to place a family, a household or a new chapter of life under divine protection rather than under their own effort alone.
सहस्रशीर्षा पुरुषः सहस्राक्षः सहस्रपात् । स भूमिं विश्वतो वृत्वा अत्यतिष्ठद्दशाङ्गुलम् ॥ The Cosmic Being has a thousand heads, a thousand eyes and a thousand feet; he pervades the earth on every side and yet extends beyond it — the verse acknowledges that all beings and all worlds rest within that one Purusha.The tradition prescribes the Purusha Suktha Homa for those who want their inner life to grow steady. These are the intentions devotees bring to the fire.
The hymn is a surrender, not a request. Devotees offer it to soften the ego and let bhakti take firmer root in daily practice.
Sixteen verses chanted slowly into fire have a settling effect. Many book this rite when the mind is restless and prayer feels mechanical.
Purusha is invoked as the source of all beings. The homa is performed to place yourself knowingly within that grace rather than outside it.
Traditionally the Sukta is chanted to cleanse subtle impressions — old guilt, agitation, the residue of harsh years.
Families offer this homa for harmony under one roof, and for children and elders to be held in the same protection.
Before a new home, a long sadhana, a vow or a life change, the purusha suktha homa is offered so the undertaking begins in sanctity.
Every priest who performs your Purusha Suktha 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 Purusha Suktham, 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.

The Purusha Sukta belongs to Vishnu-centred worship, so the days sacred to Narayana are held to be most fitting. Our priests fix the muhurat and inform you before the telecast.
The star of Vishnu. Chanting the Purusha Sukta on Shravana days is considered especially fitting for devotion-centred intentions.
The eleventh and twelfth lunar days, kept for Narayana worship and fasting, are widely chosen for this homa.
Thursday carries Guru's blessing for spiritual study; the full moon lends fullness to any Maha homa of surrender.
Devotees who plan ahead often request these periods, when Vishnu worship is at its height across traditions.
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.

Dip the silver amulet in raw milk or Ganga jal for an hour before wearing, then clean with normal water.

Purusha 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 — Purusha Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.
