Along
with these, in certain places like Kumbhakonam this sacred festival
is held in a huge tank and it is called Mahamaham. Similar rituals
are observed there also. So, it is a water festival to be precise.
Before closing a mention about Kumbha Mela is quite
indispensable closing is held like others once in 12 years and
it is at the Pavana Triveni Sangam, where the most sacred rivers
Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati meet. Normally 5 to 6 crore people
attend from all parts of the world, where Hinduism is held in
reverence, besides following. Volumes can be written on it. It is
second to none but to itself and raises the banner Bharatiya Sanskriti to the Everest and beyond it too.
