“I am 33 years old. I am practicing Homa Therapy since 6 months on a farm called “Union”. The changes I have experienced in my person are many. In the physical aspect I observed that my fingernails are stronger, my hair was always split and now it is like silk, my skin is being healed of acne and the scent of my skin has changed, now it smells like incense, it smells fresh. I bathe every day with Agnihotra ash water and take every day Agnihotra ash.
My life before was almost opposed to what is the so called Fivefold Path. I had all the six crocodiles. I lived with all that pride, attachment, envy, anger, greed and lust. It can be said that I was the 6 crocodiles. And simply doing the Agnihotra fire, my mind has been renewed. The bad things have left, simply as this.
I was addicted to alcohol, to drugs and everything you can find in the streets like marihuana, cocaine, paste (for Cocaine production) and the combinations that are being offered, the mixed substances. I smoked cigarettes since I was 10 years old. More than 20 years of smoking! With the other drugs I started when I was 14, 15 years old. That means I spent almost 20 years with drugs. I tried many times to leave the drugs, but was not able to. I always returned to them.

Now I am clean since six months. If somebody comes and offers me something, I recommend him like a good friend not to continue with the drugs, because he is harming himself. I do not take anything, not even a glass of beer. In the first two months of starting with Homa Therapy I still took a glass of beer. But now nothing!
I also became a vegetarian. I practice all the disciplines I was taught: purification of language, thought purification, purification of the feelings and of my actions. Everything. I am following the Fivefold Path. Why cheat, why lie? I don’t have any reason for that. And this is all happening by itself. This is occurring effortlessly with the Fivefold Path. I am following it. When I sing the Tryambakam Mantra, I feel the vibration in my whole body.
I think that this can be achieved and felt by any person. Agnihotra is for everybody. We all are entitled to do this fire. I recommend the addicts to undergo the Homa Therapy Treatment, to test it and to experiment with it. It is necessary to experience it yourself and see the results. Oneself has to experience it.
I sleep well and sleep less hours. I sleep 6, 7 hours, but without waking up in between.
The happiness, the love, the peace, all the spiritual principles, I feel them. They have settled within me, without my doing. Peace, Kindness, Love… all those spiritual principles – they have sprouted within me by themselves, that is to say they are revealing themselves inside of me. God is revealing himself through being in love, being in peace, in happiness and that has sprouted within me all by itself. I tell you this happened without any effort. I never knew those spiritual principles.

I have been in many music movements, like black metal, metal, the Gothic’s, etc. And not only in music movement, but in clothes-, philosophy- and other movements. I was in a philosophical Satan movement by free will. But what does one with his free will? You get drugged, you party all night, have excess sex. And what consequences does that bring? Weakening of the body. That is to say with 30 years of age, your body is wasted. You are ready for the garbage can. It would be good if the body tolerated this rhythm of life till 50-60 years, but it does not. Then this life of drugs and sex is something where you think, tomorrow I die, so let me take advantage today… something like that. But of what do we take advantage? Destroying life? Of course we destroy it, we don’t take advantage of it. The feeling of happiness is short lasting. Being in drugs the happiness is short lasting. The call of the street is strong, the flashback is hard and is not good for anything, it doesn’t stimulate you… it will stimulate you for a short while. Then the fall and the awakening are worse…
Anybody who wants to learn Homa Therapy and heal themselves, can learn it for free. The fire simply purifies all that you put in front. I would go anywhere where I could help. Homa Therapy is the Best to get away from drugs because it is effective, if not I would have already left it.
I plan to continue with Homa Therapy as long as I can, until the last sigh. It is possible that there is a moment when I cannot do it, but I hope somebody will do it for my. The light comes out of you by itself with Agnihotra, you don’t have to force it out. There is no reason to force anything. Alone it springs forth. For example those spiritual principles of love, peace – I didn’t know anything of that… not of happiness, not of joy or kindness, or anything like that. It has sprouted within me by itself. Unintentionally. I really do not recognize myself, there has been this change… practically everybody who knows me und has come to visit me has noticed the change… that I am well. Physically I am well and I have other habits. I no longer have destructive habits. The low self esteem is a very destructive habit, which many people practice, many times unconsciously… but I am well now.
I continue with the fires and know that everything comes by itself.”

I have been a co-worker of Barry Rathner at the Jewish Committee for Personal Service, a service of Gateways Mental Health Center in Los >> Angeles, since I began my employment there nearly two years ago.

As our jobs consist mostly of counseling inmates at jails and prisons, I was very happy to experience the care and attention to detail that Dr. Rathner demonstrated while training me. The intense atmosphere of places of incarceration creates a situation where the more prepared one is to deal with it, the better.

Dr. Rathner taught me not only how to do my job, but, furthermore, his detachment and sense of humor to this day aids me in finding a balance.I experienced both personally and professionally Dr. Rathner’s ability to put people at ease while at the same time extracting important information that helps our clients with their legal, psychological and spiritual problems and concerns.

I would unconditionally recommend him for any position not only in this field, but any other field that involves helping others in need. His high levels of integrity and compassion allow me to make this recommendation without reservation.

If further elaboration is desired, feel free to contact me by email at: >> rb_brown@verizon.net or by phone at 310-857-8809.

I have worked with Barry Rathner since August, 1999 and have been his supervisor since November, 2001.

I can recommend him highly as one who is highly skilled in his chosen area of counseling. His writing skills are especially notable. His compassion and understanding of clients, furthermore, place him in a category worthy of the 95th percentile that he consistently ranked in yearly evaluations at the Jewish Committee for Personal Service (JCPS), a service of Gateways Hospital and Mental Health Center in Los Angeles.

Mr. Rathner combines a dedication to his work with a sense of humor that puts both clients and colleagues at ease while simultaneously providing an air of professional detachment.

In the sometimes intense areas of drug/alcohol addiction counseling, skills such as Mr. Rathner possesses are very valuable. Counselors able to maintain the composure and balance required in jail and prison settings—where most of JCPS’s work is done—are not easy to find.

We are very happy to have found Mr. Rathner and can recommend him without reservation based on his 10 years of service here.
