MahaKumbh 2025

At the Holy Sangam of Ganga, Yamuna & Saraswati – Prayagraj, India

The MahaKumbh is the largest spiritual gathering on Earth that unites millions of devotees, ascetics, and seekers on the sacred banks of India’s revered rivers. This year’s Kumbh at Prayagraj holds extraordinary significance, marking the first MahaKumbh in 144 years after the completion of 12 Purna Kumbhs. It offers an opportunity for seekers to deepen their practice and participate in an ancient tradition.  The word “Kumbh” is derived from Kumbhak, symbolizing a sacred vessel filled with the elixir of immortality. According to ancient myth, when the Devas (gods) and Asuras (demons) churned the ocean (Samudra Manthan), several divine objects emerged, including the coveted Amrita—the nectar of immortality—contained in the Kumbh (divine pot).

Welcome to Yogadham, 2025

The Yogadham is being planned in the VIP area of the MahaKumbh, close to the Someshwar Mahadev Temple and the DPS School, on the banks of the Ganges, not far from the Triveni Sangam area. Apart from the various activities organized within the Yogadham, the location facilitates a variety of experiences including Snaans, Akhada visits, interaction with local artisans etc. The proximity to the police control center and the liaison with Safai Karamcharis makes it a very safe and clean zone.

Each of the 45 days at the Yogadham is being meticulously planned to incorporate a holistic MahaKumbh experience for the attendees. The MahaKumbh is a rare opportunity to be in the presence of many spiritual masters from across our great land who gather for this sacred event. It brings together millions of seekers, showcasing both the everyday life and the deeper spiritual side of our country, all for the benefit of humanity. True to its name, The Satsang Foundation, is facilitating this ‘sat-sang’ for all those interested.

Sri M’s Kumbh Message

The first mention of the Kumbh Mela comes from Hiuen Tsang, the Chinese traveller who visited the Kumbh Mela in Prayag during the reign of the King Harshavardhan. 

Adi Shankara is considered the founder of the founder of the Kumbh Mela in its present form. The intention was to bring together sages and scholars belonging to the different traditions in one space on the banks of the confluence of the three sacred rivers – Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati – to discuss spiritual and religious scriptures from all the 6 darshanas.

Sadhus and saints of all varieties take part in the Kumbh Mela, staying in temporary abodes called Akadas, attending satsangs and on appointed days taking a dip in the confluence of the three rivers.

The four places where the Kumbh takes place are Haridwar, Prayag, Nasik and Ujjain. Tradition asserts that these are the places where drops of Amrit (nectar) fell when the Devas and Asuras tried to snatch the Kumbh, the pot which contained the Amrit, after the churning of the ocean (Samundra Manthan).

This Kumbh Mela in Prayag is the Purna (full) Kumbh Mela which comes once every 12 years.
We, the Yoga Dham – the Akada of the Satsang Foundation, whose guiding saints are Sri Guru Babaji and Maheshwarnathji will conduct Satsangs and Yoga Shibirs, and feed the Sadhus led by Sri M (Madhukarnath), a disciple of the above Saints.

We welcome you to this great event.
