The world’s largest spiritual and cultural event, Maha Kumbh, commenced today in Prayagraj with the Amrit Snan on Paush Poornima. Millions of devotees, pilgrims, and visitors are participating in the holy dip at various ghats of the Triveni Sangam, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers converge. The grand event will continue until Mahashivaratri on February 26. This year’s Maha Kumbh is especially significant due to a rare celestial alignment that occurs only once every 144 years.
