Significance of Rudra Homam
Rudra is Lord Shiva, the destroyer of evil forces and this homam is dedicated to him. He can control the nine planets and thus controls time and space. Rudra Homam when chanted with devotion and care, can directly pierce through your deepest energy layers, energise the naadis and flush out the negative forces that influence your health and mental states.
Main benefits of conducting this Rudra Homam: –
1) Remove your sins and karmic effects
2) Conquer troubles and death fears
3) Fulfill desires & Solve relationship issues
4) Protect yourself from harmful outside forces
