Mahakumbh LIVE: Flood of faith on Makar Sankranti, more than 3.50 crore devotees took bath in nectar

The nectar bath of Makar Sankranti took place on Tuesday on the occasion of Mahakumbh, the great festival of Sanatan faith in Tirtharaj, Prayagraj. According to mythological belief, taking bath in Mahakumbh on Makar Sankranti is considered as taking bath in nectar. Today, on the day of Lord Sun’s entry into Capricorn, as per tradition, the Akharas of Sadhus and Sannyasis took out a procession with full rituals and took the nectar bath.

Devotees having faith in Sanatan tradition were standing in queues to see the nectar bath of the Akharas and to get the blessings of Naga and Bairagi saints and sages. Naga Sadhus holding garlands, spears, arrows, swords and tridents in their hands took the nectar bath in the Sangam during the Brahmamuhurta itself. The common people were overwhelmed to see the eternal tradition of bathing in nectar coming alive in the Mahakumbh which has been going on for thousands of years. Nagas, the protectors of religion living in the caves, monasteries and temples of the Himalayas, adorned themselves and descended into the lap of Mother Ganga to frolic.
