Day's Event

Maheshwara Puja is one of Hinduism’s most ancient rituals.

Maheshwara Puja is usually offered in the remembrance of a person who is no more. It is offered so that the departed soul rests in peace. The real peace that a soul can experience is the peace of Enlightenment.

In our Nithyananda Sampradaya, Devotees offer Maheshwara Puja so that the departed soul can be liberated in the presence of The Avatar, His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda. In the Maheshwara Puja, His Holiness Paramahamsa Nithyananda, who is the embodiment of Cosmic energy, personally receives the Bhiksha or food offering and he liberates the departed soul . No matter how many births the person would have taken after leaving the body and no matter if the person has met the Master or not in the life, the Master can intervene and make His presence available in the departed soul’s life and lead it to Enlightenment.

A key component of the Maheshwara Puja is the offering of food to the Master along with His monastic disciples. This is when Swamiji blesses the ancestors to attain Enlightenment and offers them “pinda” or food for the journey to their Enlightenment.
