The Maharishi Yagya program consists of special Vedic performances to help neutralize negative tendencies in your life before they manifest, and to help maximize positive influences for fulfillment of particular desires or goals. Each performance is done specifically for the individual who requests it.

What makes the Maharishi Yagya Program so special?
To obtain the most powerful and life-supporting results that are possible, proper performance of a yagya is essential. This requires that the yagya be performed from the level of pure consciousness by properly trained Vedic pandits. This unique procedure is the essence of the Maharishi Yagya program brought to light by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Only Maharishi Vedic^SM program pandits have been thoroughly trained in India under the guidance of Maharishi. They have been deeply grounded in the Vedic tradition and perform Maharishi Yagya procedures from that silent level of expanded awareness. Maharishi has said, "The transformations from the yagya are on the level of consciousness; the subjective value is the basis for success with the Maharishi Yagya performance."

What is the relationship between the Maharishi Yagya program and the Maharishi Vedic Astrology program?
Maharishi Vedic Astrology is that branch of Vedic Science which is able to calculate and then predict the type of influence that has been created by your past actions and which will return to you at a particular time and place. Based on this highly specific analysis, the Maharishi Vedic Astrology expert recommends specific Maharishi Yagya performances to improve these influences that are coming to you.

What effects can I expect from the Maharishi Yagya program?
There are two general types of effects. The first and primary effect is to neutralize unfavorable influences. Like a gardener who builds a greenhouse to protect the plants from harmful outer influences, Maharishi Yagya performances create a protective shield. The second effect is to bring fulfillment of desires. Just as the gardener adds fertilizer to make the plants grow and flourish, there are also Maharishi Yagya performances to enhance and nourish specific aspects of life to help in accomplishing your desires.


Should I have Maharishi Yagya performances even if I am practicing the TM technique regularly?
Yes. Practice of the TM and TM-Sidhi program is a new action performed by us which unfolds our inner abilities and gives strength to meet with changing outer circumstances; the Maharishi Yagya program directly improves the circumstances in life which are coming to us due to our past actions. Whereas the TM program promotes evolution in a comprehensive way, Maharishi Yagya performances protect us from the negative influences of the Grahas (planets) and prevent problems and dangers, which could obstruct our fast evolution. Maharishi Yagya performances also enhance the positive influences of the planets.

How do the planets influence my life?
The planets are our cosmic counterparts—each has a corresponding connection to the physiology, and creates an influence on different aspects of life which can be interpreted from the birth chart. The birth chart, which is produced from the birth date, birth time, and birthplace, shows the placement of the Rashis (signs of the Zodiac) and Grahas (planets) at the time of birth. The chart is unique to each person.

At any point in time there is a combination of several planets that have a predominant or ruling influence in your life. These influences are seen in the transits, or movements of the planets through the constellations of the stars in relationship to your birth chart, and in the periods of time which are specific to your chart known as dasha periods. Maharishi Yagya recommendations are made in reference to the needs seen through the changing dasha periods and transits, unique to your birth chart.

Are there certain times in the year which are more special for Maharishi Yagya performances?
Yes, there are special days every month for which Maharishi Yagya performances will restore balance in the functioning of the Laws of Nature more comprehensively and effectively. These days in the Vedic calendar are determined by the movements of the sun and moon, in relation to each other, and through the twelve Rashis (signs of the Zodiac). On certain days, specific Laws of Nature are more lively which overcome resistance to progress and evolution. Maharishi Yagya performances on these days enliven the spiritual as well as the material values in one’s consciousness and promote progress in all areas of life.

How can Maharishi Yagya performances for wealth help to increase my wealth?
A yagya for wealth will enliven those Laws of Nature responsible for promoting wealth, abundance, and bliss, which in turn supports your efforts in the direction of gaining greater wealth. In order to make use of the greater support of Nature you will gain from the Maharishi Yagya performance, it is good to take practical steps—using logic, intelligence, intuition, and advice from experts—to actualize your goal. The same principle holds true for any desire you may wish to fulfill through special Maharishi Yagya performances, such as for health, finding a suitable spouse, harmony in marriage, business success, etc.
