With the blessings of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM — the ultimate manifestation, Paramavatara of Paramashiva — KAILASA Salem conducted a day of profound devotion and ecological commitment on 2/11/2024. The daily activities, categorized under Nithyotsavam (Daily Rituals), combined essential Hindu rituals, including sacred Daily Abhishekam and Laghupuja, with the significant ecological initiative known as the Kadukka trees planting function. This auspicious occasion manifested THE SPH's vision for the holistic revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma, integrating spiritual awakening with responsible stewardship of Mother Earth, enabled by the dedicated service of 30 participants and 30 volunteers who contributed to the spiritual and environmental sustenance of the ecosystem.

The daily spiritual cadence at KAILASA Salem was marked by the performance of the Daily Abhishekam and Laghupuja, foundational Hindu rituals that serve to elevate human consciousness and offer sincere gratitude to the divine. The Daily Abhishekam is a sacred bathing ritual where the installed deity is consecrated with auspicious substances, including milk, honey, curd, ghee, and water. Devotees participated actively in this powerful ritual, offering these items while chanting Vedic mantras and prayers, connecting them directly to the blessings of Paramashiva, transmitted through the divine grace of THE SPH. Following the cleansing ritual, the community engaged in the Laghupuja, a simplified yet deeply significant form of worship.
The Laghupuja involves offerings such as fresh flowers, incense, lamps, and food (Naivedyam) to the deity. This practice, often conducted daily, signifies deep reverence and gratitude towards the Guru, THE SPH, for guiding humanity on the path to superconscious breakthrough. Though conducted throughout the year, this style of heartfelt worship mirrors the intensity and devotion characteristic of large sacred festivals such as the Gurupurnima Brahmotsavam, ensuring that the participants constantly maintain the high spiritual vibration established by THE SPH. A total of 30 participants, supported by 30 dedicated volunteers, contributed to the pristine execution of these daily sacred services, enabling the entire community to manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
Integrating spiritual devotion with environmental responsibility, the day also featured the Kadukka trees planting function. This horticultural initiative aligns perfectly with KAILASA’s mission to revive authentic Hindu sciences, which includes sacred ecology and traditional holistic medicine. Kadukka (Terminalia chebula) is a highly medicinal tree revered in Hindu traditions, playing a vital role in Ayurveda. By planting these sacred trees, KAILASA Salem reinforced THE SPH's vision for creating sustainable, enlightened ecosystems that support both human and planetary well-being. This activity underscores KAILASA's commitment to the revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma as a holistic civilization that upholds spiritual, ecological, and societal integrity.
