History of Kumbh Mela: A Journey Through Time and Faith

History of Kumbh Mela

Retrospection into the Kumbha Mela-Kumbha Mela which for the most part has been the occasion of assembling into one really vast congregation of men even across history, after Hajj, plus this extraordinary splendor for the furtherance of soul travel in India, is well deserving to, as one would say, ‘remember.’ This Mela is held, auspiciously, once out of every twelve years at each of four places Haridwar, Prayaj, Nashik, and Ujjain, where millions of devotees throng to attend the Kumbha to purify themselves and revitalize their faith.

Legend has it that the Kumbh Mela derives its name from the mythological samudra-manthan (churning of the ocean) event. As per the haka text, ‘the drops of nectar of earns immortality fell at these four places. Hence, each of these became centers of the Kumbh observance’.

The Mela in Haridwar is along the bank of the Ganges where people converge for having a holy bath, believing that all of their sins will wash away. Nashik Mela also runs along the banks of the Godavari River toward the West.

This is the largest Kumbh Mela organized at Prayagraj-the confluence of the Ganges and the Yamuna and an imaginary third river Sarasvati. The site has been the venue for Maha Kumbh Mela, each of which occurs once in 144 years. This has become a phenomenon of immense dimensions, unparalleled in India. However, most of the respect is paid to Ujjain along the banks of the Shipra, where prayer and celebration have been religiously followed for ages.

The Kumbh Mela is a procession of the festival where most of the significance has been and is now established in association between the sacrosanct traditions and the material ones of the people. Thus, from the medieval period until now, the festival provides natural modes for accommodating thousands of millions of pilgrims without sacrificing its spiritual essence.

The Kumbh is more than a pilgrimage; it is an expression of faith, of unity and renewal. Each edition of the Mela reestablishes its standing as a crucial wellspring of vital expressions of Hindu spirituality and culture.
