Devotees gathered both in-person and online to make the sacred *sankalpa* (spiritual resolution) and perform the preparatory rituals necessary for this deep spiritual process, aiming for the superconscious breakthrough taught by THE SPH. The extensive activities, which spanned from 9 am to 3 pm, included tying the divine *kankanam* (sacred thread), donning the *Guru Mudi*, and offering *Laghu Puja* to the sacred text, LIVING ENLIGHTENMENT, symbolizing the presence and grace of the Guru. A total of 12 participants joined the event, which strengthens KAILASA’s mission of human consciousness awakening and revival of the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilization in the Caribbean region.
Jeevan Mukthi Vatram Commencement
The Jeevan Mukthi Vatram Commencement on June 30, 2024, signaled the beginning of a profound 21-day spiritual commitment undertaken by devotees of KAILASA GOYAVE, GUADELOUPE, dedicated to accelerating their spiritual evolution under the direct guidance of THE SPH. The proceedings began with devotees formally establishing their *sankalpa* (sacred intention) for the entire duration of the spiritual vow. A total of 8 devotees gathered in person, with an additional 4 joining via Zoom, uniting the global KAILASA family in this sacred endeavor, which lasted from 9 am to 3 pm.
The core preparatory rituals were conducted to purify and prepare the devotees for the rigors and rewards of the vow. These ancient Hindu technologies included the preparation and wearing of the Guru Mudi, a symbolic offering and commitment made to the Guru, and tying the *kankanam*, a protective thread signifying the acceptance of the vow. These practices are meticulously preserved and revived by THE SPH to create the necessary inner space for manifesting the state, space, powers, being, and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
A significant focus of the day was the offering of Laghu Puja to the sacred literary deity, the book LIVING ENLIGHTENMENT. This text, authored by THE SPH BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, is recognized as a direct manifestation of His wisdom and grace, containing the essence of His enlightenment teachings. Worshipping the book as a deity is a powerful Hindu ritual reinforcing the devotees' connection to the ultimate truth and consciousness revealed by the Guru.
The sacred rituals culminated later in the evening with a second Laghu Puja offered at 7 pm, performed in spiritual alignment with the daily rituals occurring at the various KAILASA temples worldwide. This comprehensive day of devotion set a powerful spiritual foundation for the ensuing three weeks of the Jeevan Mukthi Vatram, securing the divine blessings of THE SPH and all the gods and goddesses of KAILASA for the devotees' journey towards *Jeevan Mukthi* (Living Enlightenment).
