Mahakumbh 2025:Every year, when the Maha Kumbh Mela is held, it is not just a religious event. The timing and organization of this fair is decided on the basis of amazing scientific and astronomical events. Do you know that the organization of Maha Kumbh is based on the combination of certain planets? This fair is a unique opportunity to understand the relationship between humanity and the universe. Let us know about the science of Mahakumbh and the astronomical facts hidden behind it.
Maha Kumbh is organized at a special time, when a special combination of Jupiter, Sun and Moon is formed. The position of the planets at this time affects the Earth's magnetic field and biological effects, which further increases its spiritual importance. The organization of Maha Kumbh reflects a deep understanding of ancient Indian astronomical science, as both the venue and timing are decided on the basis of magnetic fields and planetary positions.
Maha Kumbh begins with the mythological story of Samudra Manthan, where gods and demons churned the ocean to obtain nectar. The four major places where the nectar fell – Prayagraj, Haridwar, Ujjain and Nashik – were chosen as the venues for the Maha Kumbh. This is the place where Maha Kumbh Mela is organized every time.
If we look at the Kumbh Snan from a scientific point of view, it highlights the amazing connection of energy between the body and the universe. According to bio-magnetism, the human body emits magnetic fields and is affected by external energy fields. During the Maha Kumbh, devotees experience these energy flows during the Ganga bath, which lead to peace and positivity.
The timing and organization of Maha Kumbh mainly depends on the position of Jupiter and the particular conjunction of Sun and Moon. When these planets are in their special positions, it affects the magnetic field of the Earth, which increases the spiritual and scientific importance of bathing. For example, Jupiter was in its prime on December 7 in 2024, when the conjunction between Earth, the Sun, and Jupiter made Jupiter bright in the night sky. This incident is a sign of preparation for the next Mahakumbh.
The Maha Kumbh is held at specific places, such as river confluence areas, which are connected to the Earth's geomagnetic energy flow. These places were considered by the ancient sages to be most suitable for spiritual progress. While doing meditation and yoga at these places, positive energy is experienced, which is felt during bathing and meditation.
The Mahakumbh of 2025 will be held in Prayagraj starting from January 13, where crores of devotees will gather. This fair is not only important from religious point of view, but it is also a wonderful confluence of science and culture. From Mahakumbh we can learn that there is no division between faith and science, rather both of them together provide guidance to humanity.
The celebration of Maha Kumbh reflects a deep understanding of ancient Indian science, astronomy and geography, and it gives us a unique opportunity to understand the cosmic connections of our existence.
