Here’s some extra info: Kumbh Mela is a major pilgrimage and festival that is currently underway at Prayagraj, India. It is considered the largest spiritual gathering in the world, attracting millions of devotees, sadhus (holy men), and tourists.

The 2025 Maha Kumbh Mela is particularly significant due to its occurrence after a rare celestial alignment that happens once every 144 years. This alignment enhances the festival’s spiritual importance, attracting an estimated 400 million+ pilgrims over its 45-day duration.

Meditation Has Ancient Roots – So Does Sattva. Discover, explore, immerse and unwind with Sattva, where ancient meets modern in the palm of your hand.
