Fire-Hūṃ Offering Ritual Manual

About the work

A one-fascicle anonymous Esoteric homa (fire-offering) ritual manual. The title’s huǒhūṃ 火𤙖 — combining the Chinese 火 (fire) with the Sanskrit bīja hūṃ (𤙖, the seed-syllable of cosmic transformation in Esoteric practice) — designates the central element of the ritual: the homa fire transformed by the hūṃ mantra into the cosmic-transformative agni-tantra fire that consumes karmic obstructions.

Abstract

The text gives a concise homa ritual manual focused on the central role of the hūṃ mantra in the fire-transformation. The four-fold karman sequence (śāntika / pauṣṭika / vaśikaraṇa / abhicāra) is present but compressed; the text emphasizes the soteriological-symbolic dimension of homa as cosmic-transformative ritual rather than the operational details. The text is anonymous and conventionally dated to the late Tang to early Sòng period.
