Maha Kumbh Mela 3

A spiritual narrative about a holy bath at the Kumbh Mela and its intended blessings for devotees.

"It is believed that on the holy occasion of the Kumbh Melā, not only mortal beings... but also invisible divine souls come to bathe."

"When I went to bathe there, my saṅkalpa or my wish was this: that I bathe for all my devotees throughout the world, that the fruits of my bath should go to all my devotees."

The speaker describes the belief that deities and sages bathe in astral form at the Kumbh Mela, washing away sins. He then shares his personal experience, explaining that during his own bath at around 2 a.m., his intention was to channel the blessings and purifying effects to all his devotees worldwide, whether physically present or perceiving it in a state of deep sleep or dream.

It is believed that on the holy occasion of the Kumbh Melā, not only mortal beings living in physical bodies go to bathe there, but also invisible divine souls come to bathe in the Saṅgam that day. Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, all holy saints, and ṛṣis all come to bathe there in their astral forms. Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, all the ṛṣis, and many saints come there to occupy themselves with their astral bodies. Therefore, those who have bathed on that constellation in that river have definitely washed away their sins. Fortunate are those who could bathe there. When I went to bathe there, my saṅkalpa or my wish was this: that I bathe for all my devotees throughout the world, that the fruits of my bath should go to all my devotees. I was throwing the water drops in different directions with this wish: that I make you pure, your sins should be washed away. Those who were there, who were physically present, they felt this water only. And others definitely felt it in deep sleep, because when I was bathing, that time here was about two o'clock in the night. They were there, they felt it in a deep dream, because when I was bathing, at that time it was about 2 a.m. Recording location: Hungary, Vep, Weekend seminar
