Narration

Today on Day 5 of Navaratri, Grand Maha Chandi Homa was celebrated in the Eastern Headquarters of KAILASA, Adi KAILASA Sarvajnapeetam. It was offered by a third eye awakened Being, initiated by The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism, Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam, His Divine Holiness, Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam, in accordance with the Cosmic Principles as described in the Source book of Hinduism, the Veda Agamas. The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism graced the Celebrations with his Darshan during the auspicious completion of the Chandi Homa with the Purnahuti offering. His very presence during this intense ritual, inspired delegates from around the world with initiation into manifesting and radiating the State, Space, Powers, Being and Superconsciousness of Paramashiva, creating the Enlightened Ecosystem of KAILASA. Also shared was the Guru Dakshina Sankalpa for $1 for all E-Citizens of KAILASA to receive blessings and boons from Devi Parashakti.

Presidential Daily Briefing with the Paramashiva Ganas ensued.

Contributing to over 108 humanitarian causes of SHRIKAILASA Uniting Nations, KAILASA's Nithyananda Hindu University marks today as Season 14, Day 8 of the Paramashivoham convention. One of the major highlights of KAILASA’s contributions through this convention is Power Manifestation, today being the power of Sarvajnatva. Delegates also received Dakshinamurti Bhava Darshan.

Sanyasis of the Nithyananda Order of Monks and initiated Acharyas worldwide, affiliated with the Department of Education of KAILASA conducted a series of seminars focusing on the Truths related to Sahasrara Chakra, Guru/Disciple Relationship, Smaranath Mukthi, Conquering Time, Science of Oneness, Guru Tattva and Sarvaparityaga, as revealed by The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism inspiring millions towards the Science of Hinduism.
