These essential daily spiritual duties, meticulously maintained by 2 dedicated volunteers, serve as the bedrock for KAILASA's mission of giving superconscious breakthrough to humanity.
KAILASA HOUSTON DAILY TEMPLE ACTIVITIES
The daily spiritual life at KAILASA Houston is anchored by rigorous adherence to the sacred Hindu rituals prescribed by THE SPH. The day commenced with Suprapatam Seva, the auspicious process of waking up the deities, which simultaneously serves as a spiritual practice for devotees to awaken the divinity present within their own being and seek divine blessings at the start of the day. This was followed by Bhoga Murty Alankaram, a devotional service where beautiful clothing and jewels are offered to the Bhoga Murty forms of THE SPH, Devi, and Shiva Meru, symbolizing reverence for the divine forms established by the Avatar.
The morning proceedings continued with the Deity Procession, welcoming the Bhoga Murthy deities into the main temple area ritualistically in a grand demonstration of devotion and respect for the tradition. Central to the daily worship is the performance of Guru Puja to THE SPH BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM and Shiva Puja to Lord Nithyanandeshwara (Moolavar), performed both in the morning and evening to maintain continuous connection to the ultimate source, Paramashiva. These pujas reinforce the sacred Guru-Disciple connection, which is the cornerstone of realizing the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
As the day progressed, the evening rituals included Naivedhyam, where blessed food offerings are made to all the deities present. The spiritual cycle concluded with Palliyarai Seva, the sacred process of putting the deities to sleep, often performed with Chamaram. This concluding ritual ensures that the entire physical space and the consciousness of the devotees remain immersed in the presence of Paramashiva throughout the 24-hour cycle. The continuity of these high-frequency Hindu rituals, diligently executed by 2 volunteers, demonstrates KAILASA’s commitment to preserving authentic Hindu civilization in the West.
In addition to the daily temple rituals, devotees participated in special spiritual offerings conducted during the highly potent Brahmamuhurta time. Participants engaged in the ancient Hindu science of Nithyananda Yoga and Nithya Dhyaan Meditation. The physical practice involved 108 rounds of Prathama Vinyasa Krama, a powerful sequence designed to prepare the inner space for the manifestation of the shaktis/powers of Paramashiva. By adhering to these strict spiritual disciplines gifted by THE SPH, devotees were blessed with the opportunity to deepen their connection with the Avatar and contribute to KAILASA's global mission of human consciousness awakening.
