The discovery of fire is a very important event in the human civilization. In ancient times, however, it was difficult to create fire. This gave rise to the idea of maintaing the fire all the time and also to fire-worship. Thus, the fireworship is very common in most of the religion in the world.

In this book, J. C. Heesterman attempts to understand the origins and nature of Vedic sacrifice—the complex compound of ritual practices that stood at the center of ancient Indian religion. Paying close attention to anomalous elements within both the Vedic ritual texts, the brahmanas, and the ritual manuals, the srautasutras, Heesterman reconstructs the ideal sacrifice as consisting of four moments: killing, destruction, feasting, and contest. He shows that Vedic sacrifice all but exclusively stressed the offering in the fire—the element of destruction—at the expense of the other elements. Notably, the contest was radically eliminated. At the same time sacrifice was withdrawn from society to become the sole concern of the individual sacrificer. The ritual turns in on the individual as "self-sacrificer" who realizes through the internalized knowledge of the ritual the immortal Self. At this point the sacrificial cult of the fire recedes behind doctrine of the atman's transcendence and unity with the cosmic principle, the brahman. Based on his intensive analysis Heesterman argues that Vedic sacrifice was primarily concerned with the broken world of the warrior and sacrificer. This world, already broken in itself by the violence of the sacrificial contest, was definitively broken up and replaced with the ritrualism of the single, unopposed sacrificer. However, the basic problem of sacrifice—the riddle of life and death—keeps breaking too surface in the form of incongruities, contradictions, tensions, and oppositions that have perplexed both the ancient ritual theorists and the modern scholar.

Year 2023 is the centenary of discovery of Mohenjo Daro while Harappa was unearthed one year prior. But how much do we know about this great civilization? Instead of enlightening, the mysteries of the Indus Valley Civilization continue to baffle us, one of which is the fire worship. In the Vedas the essence of worship is the "Yajna", and we try to find its root in the Indus Civilization. But were the enigmatic fire-pits of the Harappans prototypes of the Yajna altars? Were the Harappans actually predecessors of the Vedic sages? Dipan Bhattacharya's widely acclaimed and award-winning book on this subject is being published by Hornbill Press titled "Indus Fire worship Cult and Vedic Yajna - a Comparative Study". Translated by Bibekananda Chatterjee.
