Description

Introduction: The Hawan Kund (also spelled as Havan Kund) is a sacred fire pit or vessel used in Vedic rituals, particularly in Hawan or Homa ceremonies. These rituals involve offerings to a consecrated fire to invoke divine blessings and purify the environment. The hawan kund is central to these practices, symbolizing the medium through which offerings are made to deities, representing the element of fire (Agni), which is revered as a messenger between humans and the divine.

• Traditionally, a hawan kund is square or rectangular, though it can also be triangular or circular depending on the type of ritual. The shape has symbolic meanings, often representing the four cardinal directions.
• Hawan kunds are typically made of brick, clay, or metal (such as copper or brass), which are heat-resistant and durable. In homes, smaller metal kunds are commonly used.
