Following is an example of relief from Drug Addictions through agnihotra: An officer, 25 years in age, who had been a poly drug abuser in the past, was selected for the study by Lt. Col. G. R. Golecha, a senior advisor in the psychiatry division of the Indian army. The patient was at that time addicted to heroin for 2 years. He had undergone some de-addiction courses, twice in the past, with no benefit, and had become de-motivated and resistant to such methods. He was then introduced to agnihotra. The practice of agnihotra resulted in improving his motivation to abstain from smack, and showed significant decrease in his urge for it within a few weeks
