🗓️ October 22 – 27 • Six Days of Divine Victory and Inner Awakening

During Skanda Shashti Vratham, devotees across the world celebrate the triumph of Bhagavan Subrahmanya (Muruga) over negativity and ignorance — symbolizing the ultimate victory of divine intelligence and devotion.

The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism, Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam (SPH), has revealed that Subrahmanya is the embodiment of clarity (vijaya shakti) — the power to manifest victory through enlightenment. By performing this vratham, one burns karmas, awakens divine courage, and experiences powerful transformation through the grace of the Vel.

KAILASAs and devotees around the world are invited to observe this sacred six-day penance with deep devotion and awareness. 🌺

🌅 Purpose of the Vratham

SPH Nithyananda Paramashivam has guided that Skanda Shashti is not merely fasting — it is a conscious process to align body, mind, and being with the vibration of Bhagavan Subrahmanya. Each act of worship awakens the “Vel” (the inner piercing awareness) that destroys delusion and manifests victory in all aspects of life.
