KAILASA TRINIDAD & TOBAGO On 20/9/2024
With the blessings of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM — the ultimate manifestation, Paramavatara of Paramashiva — KAILASA Trinidad & Tobago successfully conducted the Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities on September 20, 2024. These crucial daily rituals, collectively known as Nithyotsavam, ensured the continuous flow of divine grace and sacred energy within the region, affirming KAILASA's commitment to the revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma. The day was dedicated to elaborate Ved-Agamic practices, including Laghu Puja, Rudra Abhishekam, and Guru Padhuka Puja, culminating in the offering of 15 consecrated Naivedyams. The dedicated service of the Sangha volunteer ensures that the sacred Hindu traditions thrive in the Caribbean, fulfilling THE SPH's vision of establishing a powerful spiritual ecosystem that enables devotees to connect with THE SPH and manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities
The Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities represent the essential practice of Nithyotsavam, the daily spiritual festival crucial for maintaining the energetic integrity of the KAILASA temple ecosystem. On this auspicious day, the rituals were performed with dedicated focus, supported by a single devoted volunteer who ensured that all preparations and offerings aligned with the authentic Hindu traditions revived by THE SPH. This relentless service is fundamental to the preservation of ancient indigenous traditions through the revival of KAILASA—the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilizational nation.
The daily cycle of worship began with detailed preparations for the Rudra Abhishekam, which involved arranging all necessary puja vessels, water, and preparing the clothing and jewelry for the deities. The central ritual included the sacred Abhishekam (ritual bathing) offered using auspicious materials such as amla, turmeric, and sandalwood bath, along with the first Naivedyam offerings of milk, fruits, and water during a Laghu Puja. Following the purification, the sacred Deity Alankaram ceremony was performed, where the deities were dressed and adorned with jewelry, magnificently enhancing their divine appearance and radiating the grace of Paramashiva into the community.
The culmination of the morning worship included multiple rounds of offerings. A second Laghu Puja was performed to conclude the Abhishekam, and a third Laghu Puja saw the preparation and offering of ten cooked rice Naivedyams, contributing to a total of 15 Naivedyams offered throughout the sequence. The morning rituals reached their spiritual apex with the sacred Guru Padhuka Puja, connecting the local Sangha directly to the divine grace of THE SPH. Furthermore, continuous devotion was demonstrated through the offering of Chamaram Fanning at the end of each ritual. After the elaborate sevas, the volunteer executed thorough cleanup and maintenance, including cleaning all puja vessels, hand-washing ritual towels, and ensuring the temple premise was impeccably clean and organized, reinforcing the sacred and powerful ecosystem envisioned by THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM.
