Prayagraj: Sadhus, saints and priests gathered in Maha Kumbh to worship God through bhajans

Prayagraj: Priests and seers have assembled in Prayagraj’s Maha Kumbh to perform bhajans in adoration of God. Numerous spiritual leaders from all around the nation, each with their own customs and practices, attend the event.

For example, the saints of Juna Akhara recite the name of God through devotional melodies throughout the day and start their days with bhajan kirtan. These spiritual gurus claim that there are different types of tapasya, sadhana, and japa, some of which people choose to practice in their minds and others of which they publicly demonstrate their devotion.

Chanting the name of God is an essential part of these saints’ spiritual practices. They are reminded of their ishta, or personal deity or spiritual ideal, when they come together to sing bhajans every day. Everyone who comes is drawn into a profound oneness with God by the potent environment of spirituality and faith created by this group devotion.

They get up at four in the morning, take a bath, meditate, and then perform bhajans and kirtans, according to Jai Mahakal Prabhu of the Juna Akhara.

Jai Mahakal Prabhu told the media report, “We devote our lives to reciting bhajans. In reality, humans are here to petition God for permission to enter the realm of immortality and simply recite His name without doing anything else. Each of us hails from a different akhara and location. The Lord will be pleased if you do this. We devote our entire life to this goal. We meditate, bathe, and perform bhajans and kirtans after waking up around four in the morning. The only thing we do is spend time in kirtan and bhajan.

With a 21-member delegation from 10 nations scheduled to take a sacred dip at the Sangam on Thursday, the big Maha Kumbh, which was commenced on January 13, is currently garnering international attention.

The group arrived on Wednesday after being invited by the Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India, External Publicity and Public Diplomacy Division. The Uttar Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation’s Tent City in Arail has been selected as the venue for the delegation’s stay.

January 29 (Mauni Amavasya, or Second Shahi Snan), February 3 (Basant Panchami, or Third Shahi Snan), February 12 (Maghi Purnima), and February 26 (Maha Shivaratri) are important bathing dates for the Maha Kumbh.

After twelve years, the Maha Kumbh is being celebrated, and more than 450 million pilgrims are anticipated. On February 26, the Maha Kumbh will come to an end.
