Thank you for the welcome. A 'secret' or private Yagna would be for the need of protection or to deflect a percieved evil away. It may also be that this particular chamber was in use during a period when Islamic and Buddist influences were causing upheavals in that particular place. There were hundreds of years of violent religious movements in that part of the world. Christians have no historical monopoly on being persecuted. Once again, Thank you for the welcome.

You certainly know your “Yagnas!”
