A Sambrani Havan Cup is a ready-to-use incense product made from a blend of aromatic natural ingredients such as sambrani (benzoin resin), temple flowers, herbs, and wood powders. Shaped like a small cup, it is designed to burn slowly and release dense, fragrant smoke, traditionally used for purification, spiritual rituals, and creating a serene atmosphere. Unlike loose powders or resins that require a separate burner, these self-burning cups offer convenience, cleanliness, and long-lasting aroma.
The main component—Sambrani—is known for its antibacterial, stress-relieving, and energy-cleansing properties. When lit, it emits a warm, balsamic fragrance that is believed to remove negative energies and invite peace and positivity. It’s widely used during puja (prayer), havan (fire rituals), meditation, and festivals.
History of Havan (Yajna or Homam)
Havan (also known as Yajna or Homam) is an ancient Vedic ritual involving the sacred offering of materials into a consecrated fire, performed to purify the environment and seek divine blessings. Originating thousands of years ago in the Rigvedic period (around 1500 BCE), it holds a deep significance in Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism.
Purpose: The core idea of a havan is to offer ghee, herbs, grains, and other sacred items into fire while chanting mantras to invoke deities, purify the space, and fulfill specific intentions—like health, peace, prosperity, and protection.
Spiritual Science: In Vedic philosophy, Agni (fire) is considered a messenger between the human and divine realms. It transforms material offerings into subtle energy, which is believed to reach the gods and return blessings.
Modern Use: Today, the essence of havan lives on in more accessible forms like Sambrani Havan Cups, which provide the purifying smoke of ancient rituals in a compact and convenient way—bringing tradition into everyday life.
