KAILASA TRINIDAD & TOBAGO On 5/11/2024
With the blessings of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM — the ultimate manifestation, Paramavatara of Paramashiva — KAILASA Trinidad & Tobago conducted the sacred daily services on November 5, 2024, thereby maintaining the continuous spiritual integrity of the ecosystem. These activities, documented under the title Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities, are an essential component of Nithyotsavam, the daily Ved-Agamic rituals performed globally by KAILASA. The sacred day included the performance of Morning Aarti, Laghu Puja, and Guru Padhuka Puja, alongside three specific Naivedyam offerings. These consistent acts of devotion underscore KAILASA’s global humanitarian and civilizational mission: the revival of Sanatana Hindu Dharma and the preservation of ancient indigenous traditions in the Caribbean region, ensuring devotees are blessed with the opportunity to manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva.
Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities
The Daily Temple Sevas & Sangha Activities at KAILASA Trinidad & Tobago serve as the foundation for the local Sangha’s spiritual growth, demonstrating the profound commitment to reviving the authentic Ved-Agamic practices gifted by THE SPH. On November 5, 2024, the day was dedicated to performing all necessary sevas (services), including ritual, cleaning, cooking, feeding, alankaram (decoration), and preparation, ensuring the deities were honored with utmost sincerity and respect.
The sacred schedule began with the auspicious Morning Aarti, a ritual involving the waving of lamps before the Deities to invoke divine light and protection. Following this, the Laghu Puja was performed, a complete but concise ritual of worship offered to the deities at KAILASA's Hindu Temple. The focus of the worship included the sacred offering of three Naivedyams (food offerings): warm sweetened milk, fresh fruit, and pure water, presented as symbols of devotion and gratitude to the Divine.
A particularly vital component of the daily worship was the performance of the Guru Padhuka Puja, honoring the sacred sandals of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM. This ritual is paramount for devotees, as it reinforces their connection and allegiance to the Guru, who is the living embodiment of Paramashiva. Through this ceremony, devotees are continuously blessed with the opportunity to connect with THE SPH, thereby manifesting the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva in their lives. These activities were meticulously carried out by one dedicated volunteer, ensuring the unbroken spiritual current flows through the KAILASA ecosystem in Trinidad & Tobago.
