Kumbh Mela is a Hindu festival and probably the largest spiritual gathering in the world. Hundreds of millions of visitors attended the near month-and-a-half-long event. You will discover here, through photographs and a story, the evolution of cultural curiosity, of a half-declared mystical quest transforming into a spiritual experience of openness and introspective exploration. In Spanish, recordar means to remember. The re invites us to call back or come back, through the cor, through the heart. To remember would therefore be to come back through the heart. I hope that the openness and adventures that have known mine will resonate in yours.

It contains details about where and how the KumbhMelas take place in our country. There are four places in India where the KumbhMela is organized every twelve years. Between two KumbhMelas occur ArdhaKumbhs. However, the most important of all where devotees get a life-time fortune to take a holy dip is MahaKumbhMela. It takes place once in 144 years.

In this lucid and enlightening account, Nityananda Misra takes the reader on a whirlwind journey through the modern Kumbha Mela, the largest pilgrimage and the biggest festival in the world attended by crores of people. The book details the origin and symbolism of the Kumbha Mela, its dates and venues, and its awe-inspiring organization that has been called a wonder of modern-day management. It provides a personal close-up view of the visitors at the largest human gathering on earth-the sadhus, the kalpavasis, the tirthayatris, and members of new-age Hindu movements. The author sheds considerable light on the cultural aspects (literature, arts, and music) of the Kumbha and argues how the mela is perhaps the most diverse and inclusive human gathering and how the tradition is immortal, as if made so by the nectar of immortality which is believed to have spilled on the sites of the Kumbha Mela. Throughout the book, the author shows how diverse participants come and work together at the Kumbha Mela following the spirit of samgacchadhvam (“come together”)-a spirit that permeates the mela in his view. The author captures his personal experience too in Prayaga, Nashik, and Ujjain, leaving an anecdotal touch to the narrative. The final chapter presents an overview of the upcoming Ardha Kumbha Mela in Prayaga in 2019.

April 2010. Haridwar, India. The Kumbh Mela draws to a close. For hundred days, from dawn to dusk, tens of millions of pilgrims arrived to free their sins bathing in the holy waters of river Ganges. They gathered from all over the country to attend this eternal ritual that cancels time and space, equalizes ethnicity and castes. A slow, incessant, growing procession of ordinary people has transformed the Kumbh Mela in the largest human gathering the world ever recorded. Tha aim of this book is to challenge the archetypical depiction of the festival showing the Sadhus, the holy men and point the lenses to the vastness of Kumbh Mela from the perspective of the silent multitude of Indian people with no holy credentials, that make it. This book is dedicated to the people of India, the silent majority that attends the Kumbh Mela.
