00:00Not only the Kumbh Mela, but also the Siddhas, Yogas, Munnus, Rishis, Charangas, and many others who live in the Himalayan mountains, come and bathe in this Kumbh Mela.
00:13It may or may not be more than what we normally do.
00:18The first thing we do in this Kumbh Mela is to bathe for 4 hours in the morning.
00:25This is called Raja Snanam.
00:27This Kumbh Mela also starts with this bath.
00:30In this Kumbh Mela, we are seeing a few Sadhus.
00:35A Sadhu who has raised his hand and sat for 9 years.
00:38A Sadhu who has a fan on his head.
00:40A Sadhu who has not taken a bath for a long time.
00:43A Sadhu who does all kinds of sadhanas.
00:48Whether it is Kriya Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Maraiyathra Yoga, or the Nagasadhus.
00:53All of them come.
00:55The speciality is that no one knows where the Nagasadhus come from and how they go.
01:02Because they travel in small bodies.
01:05That is why so many Siddhas come together and bathe in the nectar.
01:11They bathe in the Aghamarshana. That is why it is so important.
01:15Pani Bhaskarji, what is Kalpavasam in Sangamal?
01:18It is in the name itself, Kalpavasam.
01:21Even now, we are living in the villages.
01:26What is Upavasam?
01:28It is to be close to God.
01:30There are a few types of Upavasams.
01:33For the human birth to take place,
01:36Punarapi Jananam, Punarapi Maranam, Punarapi Janane Jathare Sayanam,
01:40Ihasamsare, Bahudukkare, Pahimurare,
01:43Shankara Bhagavatpada says,
01:45Once we are born, we should be born in the highest position.
01:49We should not be born again in the 3rd house or in any other animal.
01:56That is why, what did God do for us?
01:58Kashi Antu Maranam Mukthihi.
02:01He said, I will give you salvation from death in Kashi.
02:03We can do that or not.
02:06But what should we do for this body to come to us?
02:08We have to smell it.
02:09For example, Garbhavasam.
02:12There are 9 days and 9 days in Kashi Kshetra.
02:14It is called Garbhavasam.
02:16In such smells, Kalpavasam is produced.
02:19It is produced in Prayag.
02:22What does it mean?
02:23In every year,
02:25for a period of a month from Pushyapurnima to Maghapurnima,
02:30the smell produced in Prayag Kshetra is called Kalpavasam.
02:35For a month, in Prayag Kshetra,
02:38you can listen to the stories of the Puranas here.
02:41Swamiji,
02:42if everyone wants to get rid of it,
02:44what advice would you give to the devotees who go for a holy bath in Mahakumbhameda?
02:49We consider the river as our mother.
02:52As we say, Gandhamma Thalli, Godhavar Thalli, Krishnamaini Krishnamma Thalli,
02:56the first thing we have to do is to protect the purity of the river.
03:01After that,
03:02for the protection of the environment,
03:04we have to do our own efforts.
03:06For the protection of the environment,
03:08we have to avoid using harmful plastics.
03:12After that,
03:13we are told that we bathe to purify our body.
03:17We donate to purify our wealth.
03:20We have to meditate to purify our mind.
03:23That is,
03:24bathing,
03:25donation,
03:25and meditation.
03:26We have to pay attention to these three things,
03:29we have to work hard,
03:30to attain Bhagavan,
03:32and to lead our lives in the right path,
03:35and we have to maintain the purity of the Kumbh Mela.
03:41After that,
03:42since the river is our mother,
03:48it is very important to protect the river from pollution.
