With the blessings of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM — the ultimate manifestation, Paramavatara of Paramashiva — KAILASA HOUSTON, USA, observed its comprehensive daily temple schedule, known as Nithyotsavam, on Friday, July 12th, 2024. These sacred DAILY TEMPLE ACTIVITIES ensure the continuous manifestation of Paramashiva's divine energy, anchoring the space for the global revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma. The day’s rigorous schedule began in the auspicious Brahmamuhurta with intensive Nithyananda Yoga and Nithya Dhyaan Meditation, followed by the sacred cycle of daily services, including Suprapatam Seva, Guru Puja, and the concluding Palliyarai Seva. Performed diligently by dedicated volunteers, these rituals exemplify KAILASA’s commitment to enabling devotees to connect with THE SPH and manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
DAILY TEMPLE ACTIVITIES
The daily life at KAILASA HOUSTON, USA, is structured around the profound discipline and transformative spiritual technologies gifted by THE SPH. The day commenced in the Brahmamuhurta, the most auspicious time before dawn, where devotees gathered to engage in Nithyananda Yoga and Nithya Dhyaan Meditation. These practices included the execution of 108 Prathama Vinyasa Krama, designed to prepare the inner space for receiving the grace of Paramashiva and achieving superconscious breakthrough. This spiritual preparation was immediately followed by the Suprapatam Seva, the ancient Hindu ritual for awakening the deities, which symbolically awakens the divinity present within each individual, seeking blessings for the unfolding day.
Central to the Nithyotsavam is the continuous offering of devotion through Hindu rituals that honor the manifest forms of the Divine and THE SPH. This sacred cycle included the Bhoga Murty Alankaram, during which divine clothing and jewels were reverently offered to the deities, including the forms of Paramashiva, Devi, and the Shiva Meru. Following the Alankaram, a majestic Deity Procession was conducted, ritualistically welcoming the Bhoga Murthy deities into the main temple area—a celebration that powerfully reinforces the revival of authentic Hindu temple traditions across the world, guided by THE SPH.
The most potent aspect of the daily schedule involves the dual performance of Sri Guru Puja offered to THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, and Sri Shiva Puja offered to Lord Nithyanandeshwara (Moolavar). These integral Hindu rituals were meticulously performed in both the morning and evening, serving to continuously anchor THE SPH's enlightened presence and grace within the physical space of the temple. The sacred day concluded with Naivedhyam, the offering of pure, consecrated food to all the deities, and the solemn Palliyarai Seva, the ritualistic process of putting the deities to rest with the sacred Chamaram. The seamless execution of these deep spiritual services was made possible by the dedicated efforts of 2 volunteers, who are actively contributing to KAILASA's mission of human consciousness awakening and revival of Hindu civilization.
