The Prayag Kumbh Mela, also known as Allahabad Kumbh Mela, is a mela, or religious gathering, associated with Hinduism and held in the city of Prayagraj, India, at the Triveni Sangam, the confluence of the Ganges, the Yamuna, and the mythical Sarasvati river. The festival is marked by a ritual dip in the waters, but it is also a celebration of community commerce with numerous fairs, education, religious discourses by saints, mass feedings of monks or the poor. The full Kumbh mela is held every 12 years and this year's Kumbh Mela is even more special because of the special astrological alignment of Jupiter (Guru), Sun (Surya), and Moon (Chandra)
This year's Kumbh Mela is being conducted between January 13 to February 26, 2025.
On this auspicious occasion, we will be performing a special Homam (Shiva Tattva Homam) for Lord Sri Tryambakeswara and performing a special Abhishekam with waters from Kumbh Mela by using 12 Kalasha representing Mithra, Ravi, Surya, Bhanu, Kha, Pusha, Hiranyagarbha, Maricha, Aaditya, Savitru, Arka and Bhaskara.
