Maha Kumbh 2025: A spiritual odyssey awaits you | Voice Of The Global South

From 13 January to 26 February, millions will gather in India for the Maha Kumbh Mela or the sacred pitcher festival. Anchored in Hindu mythology, the Maha Kumbh is a sacred congregation that takes place every 12 years -- a spiritual odyssey that celebrates the very essence of human existence. Prayagraj in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh will be the venue of the 45-day-long festival. The city is situated at the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and the mythical, or the invisible, Saraswati rivers. The Maha Kumbh is the world's largest public gathering on earth. It draws spiritual seekers from all over the world, including Hollywood stars, global thought leaders and influencers from the Americas, Europe, the Indo-Pacific, Africa and Asia. 400 million people are expected to take part in the Maha Kumbh Mela 2025. UNESCO named Kumbh Mela as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2017. The congregation includes saints, ascetics, hermits and pilgrims from all walks of life -- irrespective of caste, creed or gender. It's open to all -- no invitation required!
