- Purushamedha abstract "Purushamedha (literally translated, Purusha means Vishnu "Yagna or Fire sacrifice performed for Vishnu") is a Vedic yajna (ritual) described in the Yajurveda (VS 30–31). This is a yagna or fire sacrifice performed to please Vishnu. Renowned Hindu scholar, Swami Prabhupada explains the so-called violence in the Yajna in the following words,“Although animal killing in a sacrifice is recommended in the Vedic literature, the animal is not considered to be killed. The sacrifice is to give a new life to the animal. Sometimes the animal is given a new animal life after being killed in the sacrifice, and sometimes the animal is promoted immediately to the human form of life.”[Bhagavad Gita As It Is 18/3]The Purusha Sukta describes the process of creation of matter from the cosmic Purusha (universal spirit) Maha Vishnu in the causal ocean.".
