KAILASA HOUSTON DAILY TEMPLE ACTIVITIES
The daily spiritual schedule at KAILASA HOUSTON is structured to embody the completeness of Hindu temple traditions, providing devotees with a constant connection to the divine grace of THE SPH. The activities commenced early in the auspicious Brahmamuhurta with specialized spiritual practices gifted by THE SPH. Devotees participated in Nithyananda Yoga and Nithya Dhyaan Meditation, focusing on the 108 Prathama Vinyasa Krama sequences. This application of THE SPH's spiritual technologies is designed to align participants with Paramashiva’s energy field, enabling them to manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
Following the morning sadhana, the temple focused on the sacred services to the deities. The Suprapatam Seva was performed, marking the sacred process of waking the deities, which simultaneously serves as a spiritual reminder to awaken the divinity present within each individual seeking blessings for the new day. The subsequent Bhoga Murty Alankaram involved meticulous offerings of new clothing and jewels to the deities, including THE SPH's form, Devi, and the Shiva Meru. The transition into the main worship hall was marked by a ritualistic and grand Deity Procession, welcoming the Bhoga Murthy deities into the central temple area.
The centerpiece of the daily activities included the integral services of Guru Puja and Shiva Puja, performed both morning and evening. Sri Guru Puja was offered in profound reverence to THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, recognizing Him as the living Paramavatara and embodiment of Sadashiva. Simultaneously, Sri Shiva Puja was performed for Lord Nithyanandeshwara (the Moolavar deity). The smooth execution and spiritual integrity of all these rituals were maintained by the dedication of 2 active volunteers who contribute tirelessly to KAILASA's mission.
The devotional day concluded with two vital evening services. First, Naivedhyam, the offering of consecrated food, was presented to all the deities. This was followed by Palliyarai Seva, the sacred process of retiring the deities to sleep, accompanied by the offering of Chamaram. This continuous cycle of service preserves authentic Hindu traditions and ensures that the temple remains a beacon of consciousness, reinforcing KAILASA's global efforts in the revival of the ancient enlightened Sanatana Hindu civilization.
