January 26th ^Teerth  of Teerths Prayag Raj Eastern Part of Uttar Pradesh 

Purnakumbh- Purnakumbh or Kumbh mela is held in every 12 years at 4 sacred locations which are Ujjain, Nashik, Haridwar, Prayagraj. Millions of devotees and ascetics gather to take a ritual bath in the rivers to cleanse their sins and receive spiritual blessings.

Simhastha- Simhastha is just another name of Purnakumbh held in Ujjain and the reason behind it is named after the Zodiac sign (Leo), under which the planet Jupiter resides during this period.

Ardhkumbh- The term “Ardh” means half, signifying this event as a mid-point between the larger kumbh festivals. Ardhkumbh is held in Prayagraj and Haridwar in every six years and holds the same religious significance as Punakumbh.

Mahakumbh- “Maha” means great. The Maha Kumbh Mela, the rarest and grandest of all, is held after 12 Kumbh cycles (144 years) in Prayagraj. This once in a lifetime event draws millions including Sadhu, sages and Mahamandaleshwars from across the globe, who gather at the sangam of the Ganga, Yamuna and saraswati for a deeply transformative experience

I woke up out of my sleep at 02:00 AM of 25 ^th and came out of “Foreign Media Cottages” and walked towards the main road from where the “Nose of Sangam” is barely 1-1.5 kms away and saw thousands of people going towards “Sangam” starting from 09:00 PM each day and returning from 09:00 AM next day. Each day you witness a new crowd with many having intentions to wait and stay till “Mauni Amawasya” bath that falls on 29th ^of January. Yogi Adityanath popularity is at zenith and all his eyes and ears are focused to make the “Mahakumbh 2025” a grand success. When I asked many people why it's so that “Mahakumbh 2025” is a Cultural religious gathering but we see Modi and Yogi's posters everywhere across 10000 acres of “Mahakumbh Nagar”. I also added that we can accept Yogi's inclinations as he himself represent “Nath Sampradya” but why Modi' posters are every where. To this every one replied that Narendra Modi is also a Sage a saint and has taken Deeksha from his Guru and hence his photos are very important and must be show cased across “Mahakumbh Nagar”.

We asked a Naga Sadhu that what he feels when he envelops Ashes (Bhashm) on his body and does “Smashan Kriya”. He said all diseases and illness goes away and that he feels one with eternity. We met some homemakers from a Rastogi family inside “Vivekanand Pratishthanam” tents in Sect 20 or 21 across Ganges who have come all the way from Lucknow and all members said that it's time when “Sanatan Dharmavlambis” should unite and that's why they like Modi and Yogi duo. Before that we tried to ask a few questions to a “Nath Sampradayay” representative who told us how at the age of 14teen he became a Nath Sampradayay Matavalmbi and worships “Guru Goraksh Nath” and “Baba Machendra Nath”. A “Bal Vairagi” said that womens are restricted for him. When I was walking across Sanagam Bridge towards “Nose of Rivers” I saw huge lighting across City Especially across Mahakumbh Nagar. While taking three dips on Confluence of Ganges/Yamuna and Mystique Sarswati in a Dhoti with Janeu on my abdomen and Rudraksh Mala around my neck I felt the eternity flowing inside my body.

Here one thing is needed to make such 48 days mega event a successful and that is the person should be “Yug Drishta” means he who can see the future. Many will oppose me if Modi is “Yug Drishta” or not but I think he is. He is standing at a point where nothing is unachievable. He by extracting the findings from this “Mahakumbh” can create more historical visions and lead the nation to pinnacle. Yogi might not be his deputy at the center but Yogi's aura is independent from Modi and he had made local events a great success. My one question to my Media fellows wheather from Foreign or Indian that Ardhkumbh/Kumbh/Poornkumbh/Mahakumbh and Singhastha Kumbh has been organized since Vedic time but why this one is historical. The reason for the ongoing success of this “Mahakumbh 2025” is that it has a vision and administration of two Yogis. One is actual Yogi and the other one is Yogi by his Karmas and the second factor is that this Mahakumbh is falling after 144 years.
