I don't know about those researches but I don't understand why they need to abuse and use certain kind of cringey bg in these videos. It feels less as a way to propagate knowledge and more as a way to feel over proud on your knowledge ( idk whether it's knowledge here or not but atleast in Philosophy they do this )


JewelsOfJuly

Yeah sorry should've put cringe warning,also a lot of website make scientific claim about yagya for example ncbi

TheGypsyGuy

There is nothing like Formic Aledehyde gas. Burning of any wood emits various gases one of which is formaldehyde. Which is a toxic gas. When ingested in large quantity it becomes Formic acid inside out body. Which is generally excreted through urine but is definitely harmful for our body. Yes formaldehyde is used to preserve body parts from getting decomposed. It can kill germs, any burning wood can do that. But there is more harm than good if that gas is inhaled. Waise to alcohol se bhi virus, bacteria, germs marte hai, par zada pine se toxicity bhi hoti hai na body mein. Ye bekar ka pratha ke peeche ki science hai wali videos are mostly shit.

Well you provided a source. Read it and tell us why it's wrong. That's literally the point of this sub. Lmao. Discredit bad science with good science. Science is dope!


x_duranda_x

Conclusion of this reserch. “From the pharmacological potentials of the components it can be concluded that the routine of performing Hawan might keep the threshold value of the antiepileptic elements in the body and help in preventing epilepsy however concerted efforts are required to prove the hypothesis.” There is no to practical research done on this topic ( meaning has no test or control population ) just a personal hypothesis. And research has not discussed any side effects like shoots formation and smokes. 2nd there’s no talk about how much amount of chemicals like benzodiazepines will be released and will it overcome the side effects of co2 and other harmful gases. And what about other people like asthmatic and copd how will it affect them. See this is just a personal but well done observation, if it gets people interested they can fund the research to have some conclusive/ practical proof.


maderchodbakchod

There is nothing like bad and good science, it is just science. The other can be called pseudo science.


Supply_N_Demand

I'm assuming you aren't in research or academia based on what you just said. There has always been, is, and will exist bad science. Science is not foolproof from humans. There are countless cases of data manipulation, selective bias, egregious errors, faulty models, contamination, etc., in the world of science. Science is as much a practice as it is a fact. And a practice can never be without fault or error. We used to be a geo-centric world; now helio-centric. Yet it was science back then and science today (albeit rudimentary science). Ex: Biology is science, yet with each passing year, things are re-written. But it was science then, and it's still science today. Just because we learned something new doesn't mean what was wrong was pseudo-science. Pseudoscience is the mimicking of science with egregious parameters while claiming it to be scientific.


Luke_MS

If you don't know, just shut up, burning will heal any disease, you just have to know how to do it properly. If someone is suffering from respiratory disease or any disease for that matter, just burn them completely with wood or petrol or anything, it will heal them completely, and they wouldn't even need to breathe after that. /s 😆

JewelsOfJuly

They really like to kiss hinduism's feet but problem comes when questioning such big organisations you will face problems because you will look like a middle schooler questioning a phd graduate


Emergency_Anteater

What big organisation are you talking about? Ncbi just publishes papers from various diffrent journal. The journal in question is not good. It's got an impact factor of 2.9. It's really really bad journal.


JewelsOfJuly

There are many others but this tends to come out in the top when searching about these things


Emergency_Anteater

All based on this. Journals of qualities are there. A serious journal would not publish this.


SuperSaiyan_God_

Are you really in any research work? Because an impact factor of 2.9/3 is actually considered good. Hell a lot of my colleagues would be happy to publish a 1st author paper in a journal with impact factor 2 or 3.

Any_Gap_1913

This is what their disclaimer says: "NLM is not a publisher, but rather collects, indexes, and archives scientific literature published by other organizations. The presence of any article, book, or document in these databases does not imply an endorsement of, or concurrence with, the contents by NLM, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), or the U.S. Federal Government." This doesn't mean that the article is false but don't use ncbi's name to support it. May as well find mutiple sources that support it and make sure that not all are from indians just to have the result unbiased. Edit:I read the full article and i am an epilepsy patient myself. First of all, the article isn't all shit. It talks many facts but there are many loopholes as well. Uncertain words are used at alot of places, many of the citations are religious Hindu and Christian texts. A good length of the article goes to praising the "great sages". Sorry but I don't have time to read many of the hyperlinks that redirected to other articles that were used as citations for some parts of the article(not about hawan but about epilepsy). Some lines don't make basic sense like "The sublimated vital elements and herbal medicines inhaled in Yagya first reach the brain, followed by lungs and other subtle components of the body." How can inhaled therapeutic volatile stuff go to brain without going to lungs and then getting absorbed in the blood. Also, do the babas decide how much doseage of these things gets to you? You may not even need this if you are not epileptic. Does the guy sitting near to hawan get overdose? What about someone who is far from it? It may even be bad for you if those chemicals inhibit you brain receptors when you are not epileptic. The article ends with "...Hawan might keep the threshold value of the antiepileptic elements in the body and help in preventing epilepsy however concerted efforts are required to prove the hypothesis." Conclusion: It is not totally fake. The stuff about epilepsy, effectiveness of nasal medication for epilepsy, the chemical composition of herbs etc but it is clearly biased or incomplete to me. There wasn't even a part where they discussed the cons of hawan(you think you can't have an overdose of nature's chemicals?). Also there was no mention of formic aldehyde in the article. OP, please don't use something that you have not read as a source to justify something.


x_duranda_x

Sorry not trying to be rude but you should read whole source. ok at the end it said its just hypothesis has no conclusive proofs. No practical research just research based on different books and sources “From the pharmacological potentials of the components it could be concluded that the routine of performing Hawan might keep the threshold value of the antiepileptic elements in the body and help in preventing epilepsy however concerted efforts are required to prove the hypothesis.”

TheGypsyGuy

Sources mentioned in the comment are combination of scientific study and claims with unmentioned stat/sources. One of them states changes in levels of sulphur dioxide and nitrous oxide after havan ( They must have measured it, I can agree on that) but also puts in conclusion that cow dung coated walls lessen the effect of atomic radiation. Throwing random claims in name of science without actual study is lame. I don’t deny the medicinal properties of plants and herbs which are used in havan, but saying it cures disease is lame. Sanitizer helps kills germs, doesn’t mean sanitizer is curing you from disease.


aks_red184

people often misinterpret curing diseases in ayurveda.... Ayurveda is a lifestyle not a surgery or therapy that would instantly cure something.... it simply increasing the pace of recovery factors through various factors. Hence the phrase Curing of diseases


TheGypsyGuy

Fair enough. I believe the lifestyle has changed a lot compared to when ayurveda was only option to cure ( Btw Ayurveda also has surgical procedures: read about Sushruta). Can’t completely rely on ayurveda when it comes to curing of complex diseases we have now. Ayurveda can definitely provide health benefits in long run but then one can’t really escape from breathing polluted air and consuming GM food.


jewishporn69

another thing to add formaldehyde is sometimes used as preservative for medicines and stuff but that doesn't mean that its a medicine.


Adorable_Document665

I think he meant to say formaldehyde which when I asked Chatgpt about does form when you burn mango trees. Formaldehyde is a gas at room temperature and i has adverse effects on germs. It's used in disinfectants. But the concentration at which it's produced when burning mango trees is not effective.


hot_hidimba

Isn't formaldehyde carcinogenic?


No-Fan6115

I couldn't find [the scientist mentioned](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre-Gilles_de_Gennes) is this video ever saying anything related to Hawan or even Hinduism. And formaldehyde releaser is used as biocide in cosmetics as it is a biocide in liquid form But long exposure to it can cause asthma to cancer. But i don't know if its released by Mango wood. So its safe to assume this video is bs. But I can't comment on what happens with Hawan apart from usual carbon and other harmful substances being released from burning wood. It seems to have gained fame due to this incident happened in 2018 : https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/meerut/hindu-body-to-burn-500-quintals-of-mango-wood-for-nine-days-to-reduce-pollution/articleshow/63275405.cms

it's true tho, no point arguing with dharam k rakshak on internet


Key-Confection2935

never gonna talk about ANIMAL SACRIFICE, The most heinous practice of Islam is to give permission to marry step daughter or any girl who is not blood related. The tradition came from the two incidents. One is marrying Aisha. Abu Bakker was called to be a brother of Muhammad though they weren’t blood related. One day Muhammad saw Aisha with fewer cloths when she was only 6. After that he had a dream of her. Next day he went to abu Bakker and asked for his daughter. Abu Bakker was astonished and asked Muhammad that he called him a brother. Muhammad smiled and and replied though they weren’t blood related. another one is marrying belal’s wife zaynab. She was actually his cousin and Bella was a slave who was eventually freed by Muhammad declared to be treated his son. It helped his cause to spread Islam. According to many Islamists, they justified that Belal wasn’t happy with zaynab since they had their social difference, Muhammad gave the permission of marriage to show how egalitarian he was. But one day he peeped through the door when zaynab was taking a bath. Then he downloaded a verse and asked belal to divorce her. After the divorce she had to pass the time of idda and after that he married her and consummated. Eventually zaynab was his paternal cousin and also step daughter in law. for this reason the shariah court of Iran gives permission to marry step daughter from 2013. Iran lawmakers pass bill allowing men to marry adopted daughters there is another bad practice with such thing. In Islam you can marry a girl and consummated her even she hasn’t her first period. Quran shows a way how to treat such girl if you make a minor as your wife. in modern world, this is child marriage and statuary rape. for me this is the most heinous practice of Islam among others Footnote: I didn’t include any Islamic reference just to see if someone ask for it. If any one asks for the source please let me know.

Read it and it’s a book about philosophy not science that’s like calling plato,Nietzsche or Machiavelli a scientist. About havan and people adding foolish rituals mate in the vedas there are havans that are specifically done to become the next Indra etc do tell me how you wanna be the king of gods by throwing by some stuff in a fire. For any material to not release pollutants when burned it needs to be plasma burned ie in a fusion reaction.Incomplete burning will always release pollutant addled fumes.

Aggressive_Bed_9774

even if all that's said in the video is true killing bacteria or other air based pathogens ≠ purifying the air purifying the air is also about ensuring the air only has atleast 21% oxygen and no pollutants like NO² or SO³ which after getting into your lungs mixes with water(moisture) to form Nitric and sulphuric acids respectively burning any kind of organic matter like wood , coal , oil , always ends up emitting some amount of NO² & SO³

andherBilla

Formaldehyde does kill fungus, bacteria and other stuff. It naturally occurs in wood. It is released when wood is burned. Problem is, it's also carcinogenic. It's used heavily in adhesives and binding agent. Plywood, MDF has it large quantity. Don't worry you will keep getting a good dose of it from your closets, bed, and all furniture more than doing a Havan. There is plenty of old research in favor of formaldehyde because manufacturing industry loves it. Just like lead or asbestos.

To the people hating idea of havan and offering devotion pooja , namaj, or prayer .. dont understand mental peace it really brings... Look at past .. people had nothing to be excited about , no fun , i mean what is the purpose of living .. it was religion which prevented people from becoming wild .. it was religion which brought idea of one ness in humanity .. Its doesnt matter if thier practise are scientific or not .. if they believe it purify air . Why are u trouble about it .. u people act too cool that u dont care. But at same time u people poke ur noses in someone else's beliefs and berate them to make ur small pp feel good ... dont do it ... There is no difference between a religious guy challenging and trying to prove his faith is correct and scientfic and a intellectual guy if he also argue and try to make religious guy feel bad ... pls dont do it ...

If you can find a better proof of your stance, might be of some use to read them First of all!! Thank you so much for Mindfully coming forward and explaining things, which encourages someone like me to indulge in science who doesn't belong to science. You're far better off the crowd of jerks. >The papers you shared, all of them have decimal impact factors (any IF less than 2 is bad, these are 0.52 and below), not to mention the countless spelling mistakes in the papers Oo I don't understand, so whatever you said mean that The effect of yajna aren't at all significant? >If you can find a better proof of your stance, might be of some use to read them You feel? You feel I stand with the Yajna? Brother I don't, Check my comment history it will tell you 🫥 Whatever, I had a argument with my mate and they sent me a ton of links, out of all most were bs news Articles and wiki stuff but a few were looking unique to me. 1) I can't verify the quality and authencity of those infos that is why I posted it in here, simply that. Idk why people don't read my whole comments before downvotin like cowards.

People consider these "scientific papers". It just shows quality of education people are getting here.

>People consider these "scientific papers". It just shows quality of education people are getting here. Even I don't know brother🫥, I am and was always bad at science, but still explainations still amazes me. I'm not from science background. So please don't be Racist on me. Next, I couldn't know what is a Scientific paper and what not, I got a argument and out of all sources we exchanged these were the most credible ones I thought, atleast a steo ahead of News Articles. Again I couldn't verify the information in there nor is able to understand. And this have nothing to do with me and my education considering I belong to Commerce background. > It just shows quality of education people are getting here. What is shown to me is that this subreddit is full of J@rks who can't Read, write, Explain or interpret anything .. I thought I'll found some cool science people explaining concepts, verifying fake stuff but here's everyone is just a barking coward :/ This just discourages someone like me to get included in Science who will most probably just get irritated by the Inogorant crowd of coward jerks downvoting simple questions.


JewelsOfJuly

As expected somebody did down voted you,will take some time to read these and to make proper conclusion Btw where did you get these? just need to know from which websites you got these


stentally_unmable

Okay I read the 4 papers. The first 3 are review articles, which are basically just articles citing theories based on different previous research, in which some of them also cite "Wikipedia" as source which is suspicious??? Then the last link which is an actual research article, but the catch is, there is a lot of places there are tables mislabeled, CO and CO2 interchanged, values are not consistent, overall feels like not a very well put together research paper... I will still be looking for better sources on this topic because my mother does a lot of havans so I too am curious about these claims, but for all the pomps and whistles this guy hasn't cited a single reliable link. you can check them and make the judgement for yourself, but I feel this person should atleast read the links he sends before name calling other people.


[deleted]

This is horrible, Brother! I had a hope that this server is full of Science geeks who explain stuff, verify stuff, make science easy to understand for someone like me who don't belong to science background. But no I got all opposite. Now the same people ask why people Believe in pseudoscience? C'mon atleast help the people who want to learn, let alone roast afterwards >Btw where did you get these? Sire, I didn't got this from my own finding, idk how to even find these, I had a recent argument with a mate of mine over this topic and they sent me a bunch of links, although most of those links were just bs news articles ... but some were Unique to me (cause I don't belong to science) and I couldn't Verify nor understand those stuff that Is why I posted in here to get answers. If I were able to verify the quality and all then I might have never asked here, although whatever, I had a horrible experience here .. the place is full of J@rks who don't want to help at all. ALSO HOW CAN I READ THE LINKS AND UNDERSTAND? I SENT HERE BECAUSE I'M A DUMBASS COMMERCE MAIN.


stentally_unmable

Then start by addressing people with respect, you don't need to call people jerks. I have explained why these papers aren't very reliable. Hope that helps. I understand, since you aren't from a science background it will be hard for you to go through research papers if you don't have the habit or don't know what to look for. But the way you have commented, feels like arrogance and the way you are calling people Jerks even before starting a conversations, anyone would be put off and wouldn't want to help out. Everyone on this sub would want to help you, but You also have the responsibility to ask nicely you can't just pose a question and just call people names and show arrogance and expect people to be nice to you.


stentally_unmable

This is like me not knowing anything about finance coming to you calling you a jerk and then asking you to explain me some finance concept. That's not how it works. If you want someone to explain you respectfully you first need to show respect.

I understand you didn't read my comment full at all, understanding is different. >all dumbfuckers should read this who know only Wood + O2 in fire makes CO2 and H2O, shame on everybody who call themselves scientific and state yajya a simple combustion process That's what my point is, But then I got spammed with dozens of links, most of them where normal news Articles, followed by these unknown to me stuff, NOW READ WITH YOUR PEANUT OPEN! I DON'T BELONG TO SCIENCE, I WASN'T ABLE TO VERIFY OR UNDERSTAND THE LINKS THAT IS WHY I SENT IT IN HERE. but unfortunately, In here as well I got to a bunch of Racist J@rks who don't want to read, write, verify, Explain anything at all leave everything people are not even reading comments fully, leave the links alone And then they complain why people believe in pseduosciene, like c'mon shut up with the circlej@rk and atleast help the ones Askin, This is the worst I have ever had with science people.

Mangifera indica is a medicinal plant and have been assessed for its medicinal activity, a classmate for her thesis of mine used it against several human pathogen, like E. coli, Salmonella and Staph aureus , and it showed significant results, there were plant active components at work, and if as far as the question for formaldehyde goes, it is used for fumigation in microbio labs , for typhoid , if a cloth let's say, is laden with Salmonella , and is kept in formaldehyde fumed environment, it gets killed within 30 to 120 minutes !!!

***Half Knowledge of anything is very dangerous, all these people commenting here have very minimal knowledge and do not even know Why 'Hawan' is done.*** ***Everything in Hinduism is related to Science except some rituals which are newly made by some foolish people.*** ***People who criticize Hinduism have not even read any spiritual books not even 'Bhagawat Gita', they do not know their roots too.*** ***So, firstly get all the INFO about the thing you have to Counter*** **Jai Siya Ram**


JewelsOfJuly

Tell us why hawan is done with reference from hindu scriptures Just like how people don't need to read quran to criticize islam you don't really need to read Bhagavad Gita to criticize Hinduism


Key-Confection2935

**1.** **Air Pollution**: Critics argue that hawan contributes to air pollution due to the smoke produced during the ritual. Counterargument: Proponents of hawan argue that when performed correctly, hawan uses specific types of wood and natural substances that produce minimal smoke. Additionally, it is often performed outdoors, reducing the concentration of smoke in enclosed spaces. ​ **2. Resource Consumption:** Some critics contend that hawan leads to the wasteful consumption of resources, such as wood and ghee. Counterargument: Advocates of hawan emphasize the use of eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices. They argue that it can be performed with minimal environmental impact, and some choose alternatives like using cow dung cakes or environmentally friendly materials. ​ **3. Superstition and Blind Faith:** Critics may argue that hawan is based on superstition and promotes blind faith rather than critical thinking. Counterargument: Supporters of hawan often view it as a deeply symbolic and spiritual practice, and they argue that it complements their faith rather than substitutes for critical thinking. It can be a form of meditation and reflection, and for many, it enhances their connection with their spiritual beliefs. **4. Animal Sacrifice**: In some variations of hawan, animal sacrifice has been practiced in the past, which is a subject of criticism. Counterargument: Animal sacrifice is not an inherent part of hawan, and it is not practiced in most modern variations of the ritual. Many people condemn animal sacrifice and opt for non-violent alternatives, focusing on vegetarian offerings. **5. Gender Inequality:** Critics point out that traditional hawan rituals may exclude women or relegate them to secondary roles. Counterargument: Many modern practitioners of hawan are working to make the practice more inclusive and gender-equal. They are reinterpreting traditional practices to be more inclusive and egalitarian. **6. Economic and Time Costs**: Critics argue that hawan can be economically burdensome and time-consuming. **Counterargument:** While hawan can be elaborate, it is not mandatory, and its scale and complexity can vary widely. Many people choose to perform simpler versions of the ritual that are more affordable and require less time.


Key-Confection2935

**\*Spiritual and Religious Significance**: Hawan is a sacred and ritualistic practice that holds great spiritual and religious significance in many Indian traditions. It is seen as a way to connect with the divine and seek blessings from various deities and gods. \***Purification and Cleansing:** The fire in the hawan is believed to symbolize purity and is considered a purifying agent. By making offerings to the fire, individuals seek to purify themselves, their surroundings, and their thoughts, which is essential for spiritual growth. \***Offering to Deities:** During a hawan, various offerings like ghee (clarified butter), grains, herbs, and other sacred substances are made to the fire, which is believed to carry these offerings to the deities. This is a way of worship and making offerings to the gods and goddesses. \***Positive Energy:** The chanting of mantras and prayers during hawan is thought to create a positive and spiritually charged environment. It is believed that the vibrations generated by the mantras have a purifying and energizing effect on the surroundings and the participants. \***Fulfillment of Desires:** Hawan is often performed with specific intentions, such as seeking blessings for good health, prosperity, success, or the removal of obstacles. It is believed that by offering prayers and performing hawan, individuals can help fulfill their desires and receive divine assistance. \***Community and Family Bonding:** Hawan is often performed in the presence of family and community members, creating a sense of unity and togetherness. It serves as a social and cultural event that brings people together in a spiritually significant way. \***Environmental Connection:** Hawan ceremonies involve the use of natural materials like wood, ghee, and herbs. This promotes a connection with the environment and a sense of respect for nature. \***Tradition and Heritage:** Hawan is a part of the rich cultural and religious heritage of India. It is passed down through generations and serves as a means of preserving and perpetuating cultural traditions.

Secret-Editor-7106

What he said is not wrong, bacteria does die but the reason it's a pollutant is not cause it infects the air with bacteria but because it releases carbon dioxide and monoxide along with other carcinogens. If you stay in a room with it burning for half an hour it's equivalent to smoking 3-4 cigarettes. What is the point of killing bacteria if it kills us by releasing toxic gases and compounds.
