I know several (Western) Christians and a few Muslims who perform Ganapati homa themselves reasonably regularly and follow the Niyama required to a significant extent. The Shakti and fame of the significance of Ganesha worship precedes him.
Ganesha iccha.
In fact but for COVID, I would have taken a few holidays to Italy, Germany and other places where many Europeans are extremely eager to learn Ganesha worship.
There is a body of scientific research conducted in Germany on efficacy of homam on environment.
I am thinking that this time I will teach them a stanza of the Ganapati aarti in Marathi also!!
Let them also enjoy the prachiti of Ganesha!
One of the places where I stay in Germany, (they have a room shrine dedicated to Yogananda Paramhans whose disciple used to stay nearby) they do Ganapati homa outdoors in 15ft x 15 feet x 15 feet homa fire pit in the earth, with tree trunk size logs of wood.
If I can find the footage, I will try and see if I can share the video of a group of people from Germany singing Hanuman chalisa to welcome me a few years ago... it’s all archived somewhere ...

Thread on homa:
Majority of people nowadays do not do japa or homa.
15 years back I discovered how amazing the homa ritual is when my sister who was in throes of severe mental health problems used to become “normal” when I used to come to India and stay at our house.
Thread
The first time I noticed it was I think 2005/6 something like that. First day homam was being done by me, sister who never came out of her room being heavily sedated... just chirpily came to the homa and sat there.
She described it as “a black cloud lifted from my head”...
By that evening my late father commented “she almost feels normal”... next day as I started my homa... same response... same answer “black cloud is lifting”...
Remember at this time she was on a cocktail of drugs for years.
After 5-6 days the penny dropped... I began to wonder

IMHO, one of the interesting things we will see over the coming decades is that a good number of Westerners will become fluent at various Pathas: Rudram and Saptashati Durga eg while many Indians will avoid it due to fear/lack of knowledge/lack of interest.
Another thing I foresee is that Diksha Gurus especially if we consider what the texts say about Diksha will become much less in number anyway...
Since Brahmacharya and stillness will be near non existent ... around 2 decades from now ... the ability of anyone to show any tangible result with a mantra will diminish.

To further demolish the hypothesis of 5561BCE... now that everyone has realised that the Moonphases and Nakshatras for the entire year and their sequence is wrong in @NileshOak ‘s thesis:
Do look at this thread
👇🏻
In summary:
AV observation as warranted from NCP occurs every year in July/August 1000-3800BCE. There is NO ARUNDHATI VASISTHA Epoch.
Saraswati river observations favour a 3K BCE date.
Burckle crater favours a 3K BCE sinking of Dwarka!

By the way, today is the third day from Revati Nakshatra. Check that today is Bharani Nakshatra and today/tomorrow can be Krittika Nakshatra max.
If Krishna reaches Hastinapur as per epic, there has to be a Purnima happening around this time and by definition it’s at Kartika!
This is because in 3067BCE, later on from here is Krishna Karna Samvada and verse 140:18 of an Amavasya at Jyestha (Which by calculation/inference we can show is happening 15 Tithis later)
Hence Kartika Purnima PRECEDED Jyestha Amavasya (Debunks 5561BCE and proves Vedic calender)
Because that Jyestha Amavasya has to be preceded by that Kartika Purnima, by definition, there has to be lunar eclipse happening 15 Tithis prior to that Jyestha Amavasya !!
Check the verse, it specifies Kartika Purnima eclipse!

The methodology used for Buddha Nirvana:
Samuttanikaya verses:
First fixing that Lunar eclipse comes first and then a solar eclipse (verses 9/10 Samuttanikaya)
Thread
We know he comes to Shravasthi and stays for 90 days.
We also know that the Deva putras come in a particular sequence!
First verse points out Kashyapa-Dhata-
Aruna Prashna clarifies that it is Winter solstice that is being referred to here.
Therefore the sequence becomes WS-Lunar eclipse -Solar Eclipse -Vaishakha Purnima (Nirvana)
Then we need to know where the lunar eclipse occured at?

So 5561BCE was actually thought of by Vartak because of Halley’s Comet periodicity (calculated wrong at 77 years) and verse 3:12 of chapter 3 of Bhisma Parva.
Let’s check of what I say is true:
5661 + 1986 (last seen Halley’s) = 7547 years
Divide by 77: answer is 98.01
Check it.
Of course, Vartak went wrong because the date of 5561BCE wasn’t the 98th return of Halley’s Comet.
The period of Halley’s Comet is actually 75.32 years.
So in actual fact, Halley’s Comet return was 5546BCE.
Let’s check if what I say is true:
5546 + 1986 = 7532 divide by 75.32
Now, let’s go further:
Suppose hypothetically we accept Saturn and Jupiter near Vishakha.
Then Saturn and Jupiter should be near Vishakha in 5561BCE
But they are not. They are 5 and 3 Nakshatras away. Is this reproducible research?
I can show you how this looks eg 3819BCE
