Mu Guruji has unshakeable faith in Yagnas. He believes that they will make India powerful and prosperous. The Gods become happy whenever a Yagna is performed. In the Vedas we read: Sacrifice (Yagna) is the foremost of our duties. It is the mainstay of the world. It bestows blessings on all things. It is the boat to cross the ocean and live well. Only through it the Gods attained the heaven. Through it deliverance is afforded.
In the Gita (3: 10) we find the following idea: In the beginning while creating the human beings, God instituted the sacrifice and said, "May this grant your desire like Kamadhenu and may you grow with its help:"
The Gods accept only the food offered in a sacrifice. When they are satisfied they send rain. As a result there will be no scarcity of water and people reap a rich harvest. This process has been mentioned in the Gita (3: 14). Lord Krishna declares that I am Yagna (Gita 14: 16).
