Daily Rituals (Nithyotsavam)
The Daily Rituals (Nithyotsavam) in KAILASA Toronto encompass a comprehensive series of Hindu rituals and spiritual technologies designed by THE SPH to enable devotees to manifest the state, space, powers, being and superconsciousness of Paramashiva. The day began with traditional practices including Yoga, followed by the heartfelt Guru Puja and Pada Puja performed to the holy sandals of THE SPH, honoring the Guru-disciple lineage and invoking divine grace. This was complemented by the Naivedyam offering, symbolizing the dedication of all efforts and resources to the Divine, and Siddhas Puja, paying reverence to the enlightened masters of the Hindu tradition. The seamless execution of this extensive spiritual schedule was ensured by the dedication of 7 volunteers.
A significant focus of the day was the detailed preparations for the forthcoming annual mega-festival, the Shivaratri Brahmotsavam. Specific preparatory rituals, known as Mandaha Padi, were conducted to create the auspicious atmosphere necessary for the 10-day festival. This diligent maintenance of authentic Hindu ritualistic protocol demonstrates KAILASA's commitment to reviving and preserving the complexity and power of ancient Hindu traditions for the modern world. These efforts lay the spiritual groundwork, ensuring that the global celebration of Shivaratri is conducted with the highest sacred integrity.
In alignment with the divine life mission of THE SPH, the Nithyotsavam included special observances for the day coinciding with THE SPH’s birth star, Chithrai Nakshatram. Devotees performed Abishekam (sacred bath), Alankaram (adornment), and Puja in devotion, celebrating the Paramavatara's manifestation on Earth. Furthermore, the schedule integrated powerful consciousness-based spiritual technologies, including healing sessions and intense meditation practices such as Argoya, visualization, and group prayer, enabling participants to harness their inner potential.
