KAILASA HOUSTON DAILY TEMPLE ACTIVITIES
The daily life at KAILASA HOUSTON is structured around the continuous cycle of devotion (Nithyotsavam), ensuring the temple’s environment is constantly charged with the divine grace of THE SPH and all the gods and goddesses of KAILASA. These rituals commence in the sacred hours of the morning, focusing first on Suprapata Seva, the auspicious process of awakening the deities. This spiritual technology is not merely an external act; it is performed to awaken the inner divinity within each devotee, preparing them to receive the highest blessings at the start of the new day. Following the awakening, Bhoga Murty Alankaram is lovingly performed, where beautiful clothing, ornaments, and jewels are offered to THE SPH, Devi, and the Shiva Meru, symbolizing the adoration and service offered to the Paramashiva principle.
The morning activities proceeded with the elaborate Deity Procession, welcoming the Bhoga Murthy deities into the main temple area with great reverence and ceremony, anchoring the divine presence for the day's events. The core of the daily worship revolves around Guru Puja offered directly to THE SPH BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, and Shiva Puja offered to the Moolavar deity, Lord Nithyanandeshwara. These pujas are conducted meticulously both in the morning and evening, ensuring a relentless connection with the source of enlightenment and consciousness as established by THE SPH. These ancient Hindu rituals are tirelessly maintained by dedicated volunteers, ensuring the steady flow of spiritual energy necessary for the revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma globally.
A vital aspect of the daily temple schedule is the integration of consciousness-based spiritual technologies gifted by THE SPH. Devotees gathered during the *Brahmamuhurta* (the time most conducive for spiritual practice) for sessions of Nithyananda Yoga and Nithya Dhyaan meditation, including 108 Prathama Vinyasa Krama. These practices enable deep connection with the superconscious dimension and are key mechanisms for manifesting spiritual powers (shaktis/powers of Paramashiva). Following the day’s activities, Naivedhyam (food offerings) are presented to all the deities in the evening, signifying gratitude and surrender. The day is concluded with Palliyarai Seva, the sacred process of ritually putting the deities to sleep with Chamaram, completing the devotional cycle and ensuring the profound spiritual energy established by THE SPH remains potent until the next dawn. This consistent cycle of sacred service and spiritual practice, supported by the dedication of the resident volunteer, affirms KAILASA Houston’s role as a beacon of the enlightened Hindu civilization.
