The Rathi Manmatha Homa is a fire rite addressed to Manmatha, the god of desire and attraction, and to Rathi, his consort and the very embodiment of delight. Tradition holds that where this pair is honoured, hearts turn toward one another — proposals find their footing, alliances that stalled begin to move, and the affection between husband and wife is refreshed. The homam is prescribed classically for those whose marriage is delayed without visible cause, and for couples who feel the warmth between them has gone quiet.
Fire carries what words cannot. Through the Rathi Manmatha homam, the priest offers ghee, flowers, sugarcane and sweet substances into the agni kunda while chanting the mantras of the divine couple, placing your sankalpa — your name, star and intention — into every offering. It is a gentle rite rather than a fierce one. Its work is on the subtle field of attraction and affection, softening resistance, drawing the right meeting forward and asking the deities to bless the union you seek.
ॐ क्लीं कामदेवाय रत्यै नमः Salutations to Kamadeva, lord of love, and to Rathi his consort — may attraction and affection be awakened and blessed.

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 Rathi Manmatha 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
Rathi Manmatha — the goddess of knowledge itself
Rathi Manmatha 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 — Rathi Manmatha Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

The Rathi Manmatha Homa is a Vedic fire ritual offered to Manmatha, the deity of love and desire, together with his consort Rathi. Mantras of the divine couple are chanted while ghee, flowers and sweet offerings are given to the fire. Its significance in the Love & Marriage tradition lies in the sphere it addresses — attraction, alliance and affection. It is taken up for marriage prospects, for delays that have no clear cause, and for the softening of distance between husband and wife.
Tradition prescribes the rathi manmatha homam for those seeking a suitable life partner, for alliances that repeatedly stall, for renewing warmth and understanding in a marriage, and for the grace of natural charm and likeability. It is also offered before an engagement or wedding so that the union begins under the blessing of Rathi and Manmatha. The homa is an act of worship and surrender; outcomes rest with the deity and with your own effort in the world.
Unmarried men and women seeking marriage, families whose son's or daughter's alliance keeps getting postponed, engaged couples preparing for the wedding, and married couples who wish for greater harmony between them. Those whose horoscope shows affliction or delay connected to the seventh house or to Venus are often advised this homam. You may also sponsor it on behalf of a son, daughter or sibling — their name and nakshatra go into the sankalpa.
Fridays are most favoured, as Shukra governs love and marriage. Shukla Paksha Panchami and Trayodashi, the nakshatras Purva Phalguni, Uttara Phalguni and Rohini, and the spring season of Chaitra and Vaishakha are all classically recommended. Vasanta Panchami is especially auspicious. When you book, our priests examine your birth details and fix a muhurat suited to you, then confirm the date and time before the homa.
The priest begins with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachanam, then takes the sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra. Kalasha sthapana and the invocation of Rathi and Manmatha follow. The agni kunda is kindled and the mantras of the divine couple are chanted with each offering. Samagri includes cow ghee, navadhanya, sugarcane, honey, jaggery, fragrant flowers — jasmine, lotus and red blossoms in particular — sandal, betel and seasonal fruit. The rite closes with purnahuti, deeparadhana and prayers for the devotee's marriage and marital life.
Book online from any country on this page. Give your name, gotra if known, birth star and your intention. Our priests fix the muhurat and confirm it with you. On the day, qualified priests perform the Rathi Manmatha Homa on your behalf at our Yagna Ashram in Coimbatore and telecast it live to you wherever you are — you do not need to travel. Afterwards, prasadam and an energised yantra are couriered to your address worldwide, free of shipping cost.
