The features of the form of Sivagni meant for meditation have been set forth in this way. The Sivagni
is held to be of three kinds. Even the Vedic-fire is of three kinds – garhapatyagni, dakshinagni and
avahaniyagni. These three kinds are to be employed by the learned Guru in the Saivagni and the
Misragni(Mixed-fire).

The Guru should bring the fire produced in a conventional manner by means of attrition or sunstone and
after placing it inside the fire-pit, he should create Sivagni from it. Or, he may create the Mixed-fire. For
such creation of the Mixed-fire the orderly procedure has been formulated. Garhapatyagni is recommended
for the householders. Dakshinagni is meant for the Ancestral Divinities. Avahaniyagni is recommended for
the Deities and other Gods. Balagni(young fire), Yauvanagni(youth fire) and Vruddhagni(aged fire) – these
three kind of fire belong to theMixed-fire. Sivagni is highly suitable for the installation. Balagni should be
created to derive wealth and prosperity. Yauvanagni should be made use of for the performance of festivals.
Vruddhagni should be employed for performing the daily fire-ritual. This vruddhagni could be prepared
for other rituals also.
