Prayagraj, India – Ganga, Yamuna aur Saraswati ke sangam par, Kumbh Mela 2025 ki roshni, rang, aur bhakti se jagmaga raha hai. Yeh duniya ka ek sabse bada dharmik mela hai, jisme har saal laakhon log, sadhu, aur yatri apni bhakti aur man ki shanti ke liye yahan aate hain.
Dhun, bell ki awaaz, aur bhajans se poora mahaul bhara hota hai. Har subah aur shaam, ghato par ek nayi jeevan ki lehr chalti hai, jahan lakhs of log paani mein snan karte hain, apne paapon se mukt hone ke liye.
Insaniyat ka Ek Mela
Kumbh Mela sirf ek dharmik utstah nahi hai; yeh insaniyat ka ek zinda saboot hai. Yahan, sabhi log—chahe woh sadhu ho, dharmik yatri ho, ya phir tourist—ek saath ek hi rah mein chal rahe hote hain.
Rekha Devi, 63 saal ki ek widowed lady, jo Bihar se 500 km door se yahan ayi hain, kehti hain, “Yeh meri zindagi ka sabse bada ashirwad hai.” Unke liye yeh ek nayi ummid aur shanti ka pratik hai.
Indriyon Ki Mahfil
Kumbh Mela ek aisa jagah hai jahan sab kuch milta hai. Tented cities, hawkers ke stalls, aur community kitchens (langar) jo hazaron ko khana dete hain. Har corner mein alag-alag cheez milti hai—khubsurat jewelry, handicrafts, aur spiritual items.
Ghar se door, yahan ke street food ka apna hi charm hai. Chai se leke samose tak, har dish apne mein ek flavourful experience hai.
Jeevan Aur Technology Ka Milajula
Yeh ek aisa festival hai jahan purani paramparaayein aur modern technology dono ek saath chalti hain. Drones crowd ko monitor karte hain, digital maps help karte hain, aur social media pe log apne experiences share kar rahe hote hain. Phir bhi, yahan ka asli rang unki bhakti aur spirituality mein hai.
Sadhu, jo apni zindagi aksar himalayas ya jungle mein guzar dete hain, yeh samay apne darshan dene aur devotees ke saath connect karne ka hota hai. Shahi Snan, jisme sadhu log pravesh karte hain, ek bahut hi bhavya aur pavitra drishya hota hai.
Global Interest
Kumbh Mela ko UNESCO ne apne Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage mein bhi include kiya hai. Yeh mahaul, international tourists ko bhi apni or attract karta hai. Andrew Miller, ek tourist from London, kehte hain, “Yeh event sach mein ananddayak hai, aur India ki soul ko samajhne ka ek zabardast tareeka hai.”
Unity ka Sandesh
Jab lakhs of log sangam mein snan karte hain, toh Kumbh Mela ek mazboot sandesh deta hai—ki jab hum apni faith aur spirituality ko saath mein manate hain, toh hum ek doosre ko samajhne mein aur humare beech ki dooriyon ko mitaane mein safal hote hain.
Jaise-jaise suraj dhalta hai aur diyas jalte hain, Ganga ki lehron par “Har Har Gange” ke naare gungunate hain, aur yeh baatein har insaan ke dil mein gehri chhap chhod deti hain—ek misaal hai ki faith aur humanity ka koi mazhab ya boundries nahi hoti.
