The Biggest Gathering of
Humanity on Planet Earth is the Largest Religious Gathering of Hindus. It is pure joy and
ecstasy.
No
Animal Sacrifices, No Bloodshed, No Uniform, No Violence, No Politics, No Conversions,
No Sects, No Segregation, No Trade, No Business.
IT’S HINDUISM.
Nowhere else HUMANS ever congregate (d) for a single event in such a number; be that religious, sports, war, funeral or festivity. It’s always been the Kumbh Mela and this year it’s Maha Kumbh. It is significant due to its “alignment with rare celestial configurations that occur once every 144 years.” Source
The
world of statistics look with awe at the statistics; 400 million people over 44
days, over 15 million taking the holy dip on the first day, a temporary city
across 4,000 hectares, 150,000 tents, 3,000 kitchens, 145,000 restrooms, with
40,000 security personnel, 2,700 AI-enabled cameras, etc. These are mind
boggling numbers but is not what makes me wonder.
MY
AWE IS NOT ABOUT MATERIALISM, STATISTICS OR PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF THIS EVENT
It’s not about what our eyes can see. It’s not about size or numbers. What amazes me is (what we call ancient) knowledge of the humanity’s connection with the universe.
It amazes me that its rituals are performed with reference to the alignment, positioning and timing of the celestial bodies in the heavens signifying human relationship with the Cosmos and its physical and spiritual effect on human destiny and future. It has no power structure or political polity driving it. It’s indigenous to the faith. It’s not about an organized religion. It’s not about a hierarchy.
This Hindus Dharma’s understanding of the humanity’s relationship with the universe, from vegetation (under our feet) to the stars (in the milky way) is an evidence of the advanced knowledge in Hinduism which has extraterrestrial roots and connections. The meditating Sadhus’ consciousness is able to reach frontiers beyond space and time. It breaks the illusion of duality of me & the universe.
Beyond
Material Science
I think today’s space travel through rockets is a primitive technology. Our physical bodies are not us. We don’t need to physically travel anywhere as once we understand that we are souls having a physical experience, from localised particles, we become infinite, part of the whole, present everywhere, as entangled particles exhibit; distance and time barriers lose existence. When we become pure consciousness; part of the divine light; timeless and formless.
It’s the awe when Sadhus of Himalayas and Quantum mechanics take a holy dip together in the vast ocean of knowledge. It’s not enough to say that Hinduism is aligned with nature.
There is no duality; it’s nature itself. Being a Hindu is coming back to your natural state.
Nature
is Hindu!
