Devotees feel blessed after taking amrit snan

Tuesday, 04 February 2025 | PNS | Mahakumbh Nagar

On Monday, crores of devotees gathered for the amrit snan on Basant Panchami at the grand Maha Kumbh, a sacred celebration of Sanatan faith. Pilgrims from Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Odisha and various cities across Uttar Pradesh started arriving in Prayagraj early morning to take a holy dip in Sangam.

The devotees marveled at the scale and divinity of Maha Kumbh, calling it the most magnificent and well-organised event they had ever seen. Grateful for the seamless arrangements, they thanked the Yogi Adityanath government for ensuring a smooth, spiritually enriching experience. Many also refuted social media rumours, affirming their firsthand experience as proof of their falsehood.

The amrit snan on Basant Panchami at Maha Kumbh attracts millions of devotees to Prayagraj. This sacred event, beginning with the auspicious Brahma muhurta, sees devotees and akharas participating in ritual baths at the Sangam.

The devotees dismissed rumours circulating on social media about Maha Kumbh as “baseless”, and praised the seamless administration and the grandeur of the divine event, describing it as an unforgettable experience. Ravi, a pilgrim from Hubli, Karnataka, expressed his appreciation, stating that all arrangements were excellent and there were no difficulties in performing the ritual bath.

His fellow traveller, R Taksale, shared his excitement, calling Maha Kumbh a memorable experience and eagerly anticipating the amrit snan of the akharas.

Aditya Shukla, who travelled nearly 3,000 kilometres from Mumbai, Maharashtra, to take a holy dip in the Sangam, expressed his appreciation for the seamless arrangements at Maha Kumbh. He emphasised that he faced no difficulties reaching the Sangam bank and was in awe of the efficient management of such a massive spiritual gathering.

Similarly, Sahdev from Maharashtra, who arrived with his family, including his 9-year-old son, described the event as divine and well-organised. He commended the police administration for their cooperative approach, stating that they faced no inconvenience while taking the holy bath in Sangam.

Vivek Rastogi from Lucknow reinforced these sentiments, affirming that the arrangements are completely systematic, allowing devotees to take the holy dip without any hindrance. Dismissing social media rumours as baseless, he highlighted that crores of devotees are taking part in the sacred event peacefully, with no signs of disorder or difficulty.
