Kumbh Mela is the largest religious gathering in the world. Although often considered primarily a Hindu pilgrimage, but Kumbh Mela is attended by people of all beliefs. In 2007 Ardh Kumbh was held in Prayag, Allahabad from 3rd January 2007 to 26th February 2007. Kumbha Mela is attended by millions of people on a single day. A ritual bath at a predetermined time and place is the major event of this festival. Other activities include religious discussions, devotional singing, mass feeding of holy men/women and the poor, and religious assemblies where doctrines are debated and standardized.
Kumbha Mela is the most sacred of all the Hindu pilgrimages. Thousands of holy men/women (monks, saints, sadhus) grace the occasion by their presence. It is believed that bathing during Kumbh cures of all sins and grants the bather, salvation.
Kumbh Mela has become a meeting place for the entire religious community -A Divine Confluence.
