A lovely Austrian woman, Karin Heschl and her two children Aurelia and Aaron have been living in the Eastern countries for over 20 years. Karin and other western volunteers, such as Bruce Johnson and Anne Godfrey of Tapovan Homa Therapy Center, are very instrumental in the dissemination of information about Agnihotra & Homa Therapy, throughout India.
Karin's first remarkable personal experience using Homa Therapy in organic farming, occurred on her Homa farm in Austria during the 1980's, when the accident at Cherynobl Nuclear Reactor occurred.
The following is an account in her own words:
When the Chernobyl nuclear accident happened in 1986, I had a farm near Graz in Austria. The Austrian Government immediately issued instructions that every farmer had to carry milk and fodder for testing for radioactivity. When I did this, the inspectors were shocked, because they found only normal radioactivity levels in our milk and fodder samples while all the farmers in the surrounding area had high doses in their samples. The inspectors said it was not possible to have normal radioactivity after Chernobyl and is there anything special that I do on my farm?
I told them that my farm was using ancient Ayurveda technology to grow food which is now presented as HOMA Organic Farming technology.
"We do a small fire in a small copper pyramid exactly at the moments of sunrise/sunset. Materials burnt are dried cow dung cake pieces a little clarified butter from cows and a few grains of raw rice. This is called Agnihotra Homa. Also we do another Homa, repeating one mantra and adding a drop of clarified butter to the fire after the mantra for four hours daily. On full moon and new moon days we take turns to maintain the second HOMA for twenty-four hours. According to Ayurveda by this method we inject nutrition into the atmosphere. This affects the plant, soil and subsoil water.
However the inspectors were not interested in doing further research.
For a scientist one such experience will be enough to motivate him to do further research.
This Ayurvedic Farming method was tested on 3000 acres of land in the Amazon region of the Republic of Peru by the agronomical engineers connected with the office of the president of Peru. This observation lasted seven months and covered all crops grown in the area.
The results were fantastic.
• Greater quantity per hectare
• Better quality i.e. taste, texture, colour, disease resistance etc.
• Longer shelf life.
• Shorter harvesting time.
• Cost per hectare is much less.Please refer to our website

Karin has devoted over 10 years to teaching Homa Therapy in India and in 2007 I had the privilege of making the journey from Kerala State in South India to the Darjeeling Tea Gardens in North East India, by her side. She has been instrumental in helping many farmers come to know Agnihotra, which is in my opinion, the only thing that can help organic farming today, because it purifies the atmosphere and injects nutrients which have been depleted by intense atmospheric pollution.
In addition to spending time with the farmers, Karin holds Women's Circles of Healing where she teaches the women how to make "folk" medicines using the Ash from Agnihotra fires. Agnihotra Ash Medicines were rediscovered by German Pharmacist Monika Koch and is widely used in all continents with miraculous results. Many of these stories can be found in the Homa Health Newsletter.
Probably the most unique and interesting fact about the work that Karin does in India, is that it is very unusual for a western woman to teach Vedic knowledge and often Karin faces many adversaries, however she stays centered in her light and brings the knowledge to the people.
