Tens of millions of Hindu pilgrims are now descending on Allahabad, India, joining an estimated 8 million already there for the Maha Kumbh Mela. Held every 12 years at one of four places in India, the Kumbh Mela lasts nearly two months and is considered to be an especially auspicious time to bathe in the holy river for purification from sin. In 2001, the last time the festival took place, more than 40 million people gathered in an area smaller than 20 sq km (7.7 sq mi). This year, the predicted number of visitors tops 100 million. Collected here are images from the preparation and first days of the Maha Kumbh Mela, with possibly more to come in the next few weeks. [33 photos]

River Ganges is polluted with Industrial chemicals, dead bodies, rubbish thrown into the river,
and they called it Holy!!
 
this is the holiest of the holiest places on earth...it gives me so much comfort to see so many devoted disciples and pilgrims. may heaven and earth bless all of them...may all the gods and spirits of the great ganges bless all of india and its people and of the universe too....

there is nothing more dirty and more filthy than a dirty and filthy mind....the rive is pure and holy.

thanks for the wonderful holy photos LITTLEREDDOT:)
