Mahakumbh Episode 4 [FREE]

According to Hindu mythology, the Mahakumbh has its roots in the churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan), where the gods and demons fought over the nectar of immortality, known as Amrit. During this battle, four sacred drops of Amrit fell at four distinct locations, which are now considered the sites for the Mahakumbh - Haridwar, Allahabad, Nashik, and Ujjain. These locations are believed to be the spots where the divine nectar was spilled, and taking a dip in the holy waters at these sites during the Mahakumbh is thought to grant devotees eternal life and spiritual liberation.
