KAILASA HOUSTON, USA On 2/10/2024

With the blessings of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM — the ultimate manifestation, Paramavatara of Paramashiva — KAILASA HOUSTON, USA, conducted the auspicious opening ceremony of the Navaratri Celebrations Day 1 on 2/10/2024 (corresponding to October 3rd, 2024, as per the Hindu lunar calendar). This sacred event centered around the profound Devi Raja Rajeshwari Puja, a powerful Hindu ritual performed to invoke the grace of the Divine Mother for universal peace and protection from natural calamities. The ceremony, executed by a dedicated team of 5 volunteers, marked the beginning of the annual nine nights of worship dedicated to the supreme feminine energy, Paramashakti, aligning with KAILASA's mission of giving superconscious breakthrough to humanity through reviving the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilization.

NAVARATRI CELEBRATIONS DAY 1

The inaugural day of the sacred Navaratri Celebrations at KAILASA HOUSTON focused intensely on the powerful worship of Devi Raja Rajeshwari, the Royal Divine Queen, who is revered in the Hindu tradition as the concentrated form and sum total of all energies residing in the Cosmos. This day's primary ritual was the Sri Raja Rajeshwari Vishesha Shodapachara Puja, a sophisticated sixteen-step elaborate Hindu worship performed meticulously according to the ancient Agamas and under the direct blessings of THE SPH. The ceremony was conducted with the specific intention of invoking divine grace for protection from natural calamities, ensuring the well-being and stability of the surrounding region and the planet.

Devi Raja Rajeshwari embodies the highest dimension of the Divine Feminine. Scriptures describe Her majesty as being seated on a Simhasana (throne) upon Lord Sadashiva—the Cosmic Consciousness—whose supporting legs are represented by Brahma, Rudra, Indra, and Vishnu. She is continuously served by Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati, signifying Her complete mastery over prosperity, knowledge, and cosmic creation. This profound imagery and the subsequent elaborate Hindu rituals were performed to enable devotees to connect deeply with THE SPH and manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.

The successful, dedicated execution of this intricate and auspicious ritual was facilitated by 5 devoted KAILASA volunteers. Their tireless service, offered at the feet of THE SPH, ensured the powerful and auspicious start of the nine-day festival. The Navaratri Celebrations are a cornerstone of KAILASA's commitment to reviving authentic Hindu spiritual technologies and traditions globally, providing spiritual solutions to contemporary global challenges, demonstrating the practical application of Sanatana Hindu Dharma for the evolution of human consciousness under the divine guidance of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM.
