Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayag:

Travel is my love and I am a professional travel consultant. When it was a lovely moment. I got a call from my office telling me to get ready for Allahabad. I received a PDF with a comprehensive description of a place I had never heard of. information about Allahabad’s voyage, which taught me and my college a fresh lesson about the Maha Kumbh, Harry was instructed to prepare for this trip and a new endeavor.

We had our paperwork and backpacks ready. You were both given the go-ahead from our office to spend the entire three months at a small town called Allahabad on the banks of three rivers. The emergence of a new vigor in my veins and the start of my thoughts turning to the varied work we were doing in our lives marked an exciting time in my life office. We were both travel consultants when our offices immediately informed us that your train tickets had been reserved. We have to look after roughly 1500 guests, who come from different nations and backgrounds yet have a similar trait.

Our team has to take care of each one of them without travel-related accommodation-related services. Our date was finalized both of us boarded the train which started from Anand Vihar train station in the evening and reached Allahabad the next day after noon our seats were booked in a seating chair car we were not comfortable. but we had to cross a full night and half a day. because the air condition of the train was too high.

We were wearing jackets that could not keep us chilled and the temperature outside was around 3 degrees temperature too cold we had tea many times with snacks it was like a nightmare we were just going through our files and list of guests checking their names and their date of arrivals because we have to arrange transportation services for them schedule was huge and big enough for us for two months approx. Finally, we reached Allahabad train station the real story starts from here when we reached our the afternoon our main destination Pragraj
we were too tired.

 

Train Station Pan shop at Allahabad.

We both came out of the train station and suddenly stopped at the Pan shop to enjoy Banaras’s famous PAN which is now famous in the world you can find some of the shops in Europe and North America USA where Indian stores are available. We can say Pan is a lifeline for Banaras and the entire Uttar Pradesh Pan is a famous mouth freshener for people who are addicted to it. Then our real journey started we took a tuk tuk and reached the main ghat Allahabad and walked down to our camping.

It was all a sandy walk and I cannot believe the arrangements made by the local government Maya Wati at that time made fabulous arrangements for the Kumbh Mela. We cannot expect such arrangements in such a desert place finally we saw river Ganga very next to me I put some water on myself and started walking again its holy water was so clear all across. We reached around 3:45 at our base camping crossing a village but all over it was the biggest Kumbh mela of all time.

 

The Ganges River peace and a Holy dip.

The Ganga river looked simply wide and huge you cannot even imagine the silence and flow of it I removed my bag from my shoulder removed my clothes and took a holy dip inside the river Ganga. it is a combination of three rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and Swaraswati what a place Allahabad amazing place to take a holy dip all tiredness is gone within a second.

In one straight dip in chilled water on a sunny afternoon. After half an hour we again walked towards our camping site with too heavy bags on our shoulders and tripods in our hands we just walked and crossed all the camps with saffron and color full pandals and religious music was keeping our minds more soothing and touching our heart which makes our walk slower pace. Once reaching our camp side we were relaxed had a cup of hot tea checked into our camp again a disappointment with our camp we got a last corner camp.

Camp Structure in Maha Kumbh Mela Ground

It was a muddy cottage with an English toilet The owner of the camp welcomed us Mr. johny nice man said if you need any kind of assistance or help you can call us. We said thanks to him and asked if any new guests arrived or not. he smiled and said to us just relax and take some rest. In the evening time, we met our new friend Ganesh who was the owner of a Canteen on the camp premises.

He offered us tea and coffee with some evening snacks we had and then gathered in the front reception area of our camp. we all were happy to meet Hymn because for daily food needs, he would assist us with food tea, and coffee then we met our new guests total of 08 guests from the UK, the USA, and Paris now the real journey starts about kummels. We made a group and started from our camp and moved towards.

Mela ground with all tripods and cameras on our shoulders and hands it was just a 5 k.m. walk with so many colorful camps all around We all walked on a sandy road across a pool of around 2 k.m. walk down and so many loudspeakers with chanting mantras of Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Krishna hare hare hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare hare hair bol, om namah shiva in some loudspeakers colors full atmosphere all around feels like a different island Quick Questions Arose in mind.

 

Guests with us had a small chit-chat between them they had ample questions about why this Kumbh mela happened ?, and why there was a need to conduct such a Kumbh mela in India? why did the Kumbh Mela happen in Allahabad? Why are media across the world coming to India for coverage? why do people come to these religious places? One by one we replied to all their answers best of our knowledge.

The amazing feeling from the bottom of my heart we saw many things so many small kids enjoying at the Ghats different sadhus and religious people doing their chanting. It was a first-day walk so we came back in the evening and had a hot dinner every night we had a born fire all our guests came and had a long exchange of thoughts from our different guests as the days progressed.

we had a bunch of people and new guest arrivals increased a lot at everyday crosses from time to time. we have got an opportunity to travel with so many new people our arrivals are increasing day by day we have to arrange for n number of vehicles for pick up and drops.

On Day 10 we were a little bit expert about the places and what we had to do take action of two of us went with the guests for a small tour and the other person was managing the local transportation from the airport and railway station. rush was really too much in Kumbh Mela.

Upcoming Maha Kumbh Mela in Pryagraj

As we have been learning day by day so many guests now added some professional photographers from all across the world to join our hands their main attractions was the mela ground to capture all the best photography worldwide and some media team all across the world to take the best footage for their channel one person I met he was from Guadeloupe, Paula and Hanna from uk, marc from Paris water brothers and many more they all have one concept tell the real story of Ganga Yamuna and Saraswati.

We have to wake up in the middle of the night around 3;30 a.m. to capture the best pictures said to be a mid-night shooting. The major concern was the main bathing dates of Kumbh Mela Shahi snans from Sadhus from their different akharas were the best attraction of this Kumbh Mela, for international guests we have arranged guest passes from the international media center.

 

Shahi Snans Dates

If you are aware of the Shahi Snans dates that are just before the arrival in Kumbh Mela every date has its own relevance to the Shahi Snans dates we have to try for the best spot for our guests those who have come from a long way to see this festival it looks like some festival happening in the heart of Ganga that was amazing it’s a great opportunity for those who are in a learning phase.

This Kumbh mela has put an impression in my life about the Nagga Baba how they act, and what they do we went many times with Nagga Babas 514:36 08-10-2023 in different akharas to find out why this Nagga Baba has become a Nagga why they use to live on the Himalayas why they always remain cloth less there were so many questions in my mind and my guests mind also they sir for many hours with Nagga babas to enjoy charas and ganja also, I have given n number of interviews during the Kumbh Mela by Water Brothers from Canada by Mark Sellier he won’t know English but he understands everything.

 

Why did this Kumbh Mela happen in Allahabad?

Kumbh Mela was based on a mythological story about the fight between gods and demons it was a huge fight between the two and all the gods were involved in it then in the end they all decided to talk to lord Shiva. they took Mount Meru which was a very huge mountain, they put it in an ocean of the worlds and took a huge snake also, mythology is so special and colorful that they had to churn this ocean.

It is a pot of nectar so both gods and demons want to take that nectar At one end demons pull the string and other end god wants to pull the string to churn the mountain lots of poison comes down and drinks all the poison so that it does not harm anyone actually everyone needs pot nectar.  pot up next lord Vishnu also came sown proctor nectar was taken away from their few drops drop-down at different kumbh mela places   Haridwar, Nasik, Ujjain, and Allahabad were the major places of Kumbh Mela is held at each place .so this was the entire story of why this auspicious kumbh mela kumbh refers to a pot in which leaves are. it happens at every new home entry purchased.

Purna Kumbh Mela happens every 12 years and Ardhi Kumbh Mela happens every three years the Ardh Kumbh Mela happens every year depending on the lunar. After 144 years super huge Kumbh Mela will be held in Allahabad which I was lucky to attend.

The Kumbh Mela after 144 years

Some people come into your life for a short period but they become near to your heart. The Kumbh Mela Allahabad auspicious event happens once in 144 years according to the lunar calendar I was the lucky one to present there, and I am always ready to talk to Naga Baba. It is really hard to understand Nagga Baba they are unpredictable and can do anything some of the guests visiting Nagga Baba offer them Rs 500/ he put that note on the wooden plank and cut it into two pieces with his hammer one shocked at that time.

I was also shocked that Nagga Baba was not in a good mood at times they were so harsh if something happened but overall that’s the kind of attitude. Since they have to live at high altitudes with no resources nothing but I am not very aware of how these sadhus manage their lively hood one of my friend’s water brothers from Canada Alex and Tyflin make videos on water pollution and how we can save water on Earth that was the most interesting point of clean Ganga.

The drive has been going on for many years the dirty water comes from New Delhi to Kanpur then Kanpur to Allahabad then Varanasi. all the killing water garbage plastic materials are thrown in the river Ganges which leads to so many harmful diseases then the mixture of three rivers comes to a point same place Sangam. We went in the middle of the river the place where the three rivers meet Sangam and give the holy blessings to Sangam by small rituals. The major attraction of Allahabad is Ganga arti which is done every night and day on a regular basis.

Taking a dip there at Sangam was a mind-blowing evening back the camping we had a hot dinner at the camping had fixed spot after dinner we all sat together and discussed the points and exchanged different cultural talks with people from different parts of the world. We salute to Indian railways for their dedication and extra trains running at the time of the Kumbh Mela for the passengers traveling people all across the world. Indian railway worked day and night 24×7 for the Kumbh Mela all credit goes to top management who designed everything in such a way that people didn’t suffer they reached on time.

One day a stampede happened at Allahabad train station due to the excess rush so many people died in that incident very serious matter Kumbh Mela stopped for a time at that particular moment.

You have seen lots of enjoyment and a mixed blend of ups and downs marriages happen to like a dream if I remember one marriage which was attended by me as well In the marriage of a French couple according to the Hindu rituals the bride was ready for the groom was ready we attended the marriage with full heartedly dance too much in that marriage the barat started from our camping with huge loud music and reached the nearby temple and they both got married according to Indian mythology with Pandit doing all the rituals we had food also so these moments were never forgettable moments.

One incidence I remember three days before the final Kumbh Mela huge rain in the area which spoils the whole tents and the surrounding area the moment was really messed up some of the guests immediately ran away in the middle of the Kumbh Mela they just needed to leave this place because of the thunder and storms everywhere. there is water dust inside the camps Guests don’t want to stay over here for a second. It was the most difficult time but we managed it and destroyed so many camping sights huge loss to the vendors. it was really bitter and I remember the guests were running putting their luggage on their heads and just sitting in the car and going back to the airport in Delhi or other big cities.

I remember one thing in mind challenges will come in life it depends on how we tackle the situation That is very important again preparations started and all our guests were ready for a new task. their high-tech cameras were ready to take new clips and we all were mentally prepared.

Anything could happen anywhere so finally they came back home back to the office after a long duration of Two months was amazing my wife was pregnant at that particular moment so a new baby arrived at my home what a time it was I went back back home with happy memories in mind and better experience. to work more and more.
