According to the Vedic tradition and culture, yajña literally means sacrifice, devotion, worship, offering etc. In the various scriptures of the Vedic literature, the Vedic sacrifices are described in detail. From the ancient Vedic times the five daily observances or sacrifices were prescribed as the Pañcamahayajñas. The combinations of five great sacrifices are called here the Pañcamahayajñas pañcanam mahayajñanam samahara pañcamahayajñam . The Satapatha Brahma a and Taittiriyara yaka mention about the Pañcamahayajñas at length while these five great yajñas take a very important place in the G hyasutras and the Dharmasutras. These five great sacrifices should be performed daily by householders which have some importance of the Indian cultural heritage as well as the Vedic traditions.

These above five daily sacrifices are performed very easily by the householders, i.e. Brahmayajña is done by the daily recitation of the Vedic texts, Devayajña is by offering the oblation to gods through Agni Bhutayajña is by giving food and other needful things to the animals, birds, insects etc. Pit yajña is by offering rice pi am or water to the forefathers Manu yayajña is by serving or helping other human being.

Depuis plus de deux siècles, l’Occident a produit une phalange (réduite mais fort engagée) d’indianistes, de sanskritistes et de spécialistes du Véda. Leurs traductions, leurs commentaires, leurs recensions et leurs savantes thèses, sont g��néralement de bonne facture, et font montre d’une érudition de haut niveau. Les…
