The center works for all aspect of the Yagya including Yagya Therapy.
The use of yagya as Therapy is well documented in Vedic and Ayurvedic literature. During the Vedic times, Yagya therapy manifested into a highly sophisticated therapeutic system, being the primary mode of treatment having protocols for different purposes. For example, which animals’ ghee needs to be used, which rishi will perform which type of yagya, what types of mantra are needed, what kinds of material and wood to be used etc. Yagyavalkya Rishi was the prominent Rishi who worked on its spiritual and scientific aspects. Gurukuls and Aaranyaks which served as hospitals during the Vedic times were lost during the dark ages.
Param Pujya Gurudev revived the yagya therapy in 1979, and under his direct guidance and protection, HH Chancellor Dr. Pranav Pandya continued his efforts helped in starting Brahmavarchas Shodh Sansthan (BSS). The fundamental and foundation work on Yagya Therapy and different aspect of Yagya in modern time was established and carried out at BSS.
