Yajnas and their donations
A donation is needed for a yajna performance since in a yajna the
Pundits work, i.e. chant mantras and do all
the formalities to complete the yajna perfectly. A yajna generally lasts
for 5-7 hours during which the Pundits continuously chant mantra and complete
repeating them for a large number of times. So, we offer them an honourary fee,
which is called 'Dakshina' in Sanskrit. Then, there are offerings needed for the
yajna which must be offered to the deity to attain grace and forgiveness. The
most common offerings are clarified butter (ghee), rice, foods, fruits,
vegetables, leaves, garments and clothes etc. As long as the Pundits chant the
mantras, they keep offering the butter into the fire. The fire also must be
running all the time, lit by woods. Other than this, there might be offerings
like gemstones, fine quality garments and other costly things. Vedic tradition is strict about what
offerings must be made to appease a particular deity. Unless these are done in
prescribed way, the yajna would not carry much success.
Basically, the yajna means a sacrifice. It is offering costly things
and repeat praises to the deities to please them. If the offerings and
other arrangements are not up to the Vedic standard, there would be very
less benefit from the yajna.
