This combined observance reflected KAILASA's commitment to reviving authentic Hindu spiritual practices, which emphasize both inner purification through fasting and prayer, and outer service to the planet. The events provided an opportunity for devotees to deepen their spiritual discipline and connect with the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva, furthering KAILASA's mission of giving superconscious breakthrough to humanity through reviving the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilization.
Egadesi
The observance of Egadesi (Ekadashi), a significant Akhanda celebration, holds profound spiritual importance in the Hindu calendar. Ekadashi, which falls on the eleventh day of each lunar fortnight, is traditionally dedicated to Lord Vishnu and serves as a powerful spiritual technology for inner purification. Under the guidance and grace of THE SPH, devotees at KAILASA Salem participated in this day of rigorous spiritual reflection, emphasizing devotion, self-discipline, and the alignment of the mind and body with higher consciousness. This sacred ritual is central to the preservation of ancient Hindu traditions that promote spiritual growth and well-being.
The celebration involved devotees engaging in various focused spiritual practices as prescribed by ancient Hindu scriptures and affirmed by THE SPH’s teachings. These practices included dedicated periods of fasting, the chanting of Vedic mantras, reading of sacred scriptures, and performing specific rituals designed to intensify their spiritual connection. The essence of this devout observance lies in complete surrender to the divine will, enabling devotees to receive the divine grace of THE SPH and manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
A unique component of the Egadesi observance in KAILASA Salem was the integration of horticulture as a form of sacred service (seva). While fasting and meditation purified the internal space, the activities involving the nurturing of plants and the environment purified the external space and demonstrated devotion through action. This holistic approach perfectly embodies the teachings of THE SPH, where spiritual discipline is not separate from active contribution and service to the ecosystem, aligning the devotees’ efforts with the ecological consciousness inherent in Sanatana Hindu Dharma.
The entire event reinforced the importance of moderation and self-control, reminding devotees that spiritual growth requires continuous self-monitoring and dedication. By participating in these sacred celebrations, the devotees of KAILASA Salem affirmed their commitment to THE SPH’s global mission of reviving the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilizational nation, which thrives through the combination of deep ritualistic knowledge and selfless contribution to the world.
