To perform various yagnas one should need the assistance of various factors.External factors plays vital role in conducting them. Not everyone will be in a position to perform certain yagnas. Certain yagnas requires severe rituals.
Japa yagna is very simple per Se. It does not require any outside help. It is between you and your mind. It is easier said than done. The most difficult part of any man's life is mind control. It just vacillate like monkey from one branch to another. In japa yagna, the saadhak recite the istha deivata's name. one could do japas with or without the help of rosary( each rosary contains 108 beads excluding meru bead. The meru bead is located in the middle of the rosary atop the bead a knot is tied while finishing one round of japas the saadhak should not cross the meru bead he should start the next round of japas by anti-clockwise.) The significance of 108 beads are : As per Hindu mythology we have12 raashis(zodiacs) and navagrahas (nine planets) when a saadhak does the japa for one round he is doing it for all raashis and entering each planet's house. In case, there are any malefic influences of a particular planet in one's horoscope that gets neutralised through japas. Even in bhagawad gita, Lord Krishna says"maharsinam bhrgur aham
giram asmy ekam aksharam
yajnanam japa-yajno ’smi
sthavaranam himalayah
among the maharishis he is bhrighu, Among the vibrations he is "om" the monosyallble (this was the sound pervaded when big bang tookplace)of the yagnas he is japayagna , of the mountains he is himalayas
The japa is not confined to hinduism . As a matter of fact people of all faiths practice it.
