Prayagraj, 15 December (HS). Apart from the saints coming from every corner of the country, the number of saints and sages from abroad is also increasing in the Maha Kumbh. These foreign sages and saints who reached Mahakumbh in the tradition of religious flag of Akharas, city entry and Kumbh Cantonment entry journey, are also liking the new arrangement of Mahakumbh.
Foreign saints liked the divine, grand and organized Mahakumbh. The presence of saints is increasing in the Akhara sector of the Mahakumbh area. Sadhus and saints have started arriving from across the country and abroad. The foreign saints who have come to participate in the Cantonment Entry Yatra of Shri Panch Dashnam Juna Akhara are enjoying the Mahakumbh. Yoga Mata and Mahamandaleshwar Keiko Aikawa, Japanese disciple of Mahamandaleshwar Som Giri alias Pilot Baba of Juna Akhara, along with many Japanese Sadhvis, participated in the cantonment entry. He says that from the Cantonment Entry Yatra of Juna Akhara, an idea of organizing the upcoming Maha Kumbh has started. From air connectivity to transportation system is good.
Hemanand Giri, a female saint from Nepal and Mahamandaleshwar of Juna Akhara, says that it is the good fortune of the saints that the Chief Minister of the state where the Maha Kumbh is being organised, is also a saint. The way Yogi ji has resolved to organize a grand and divine Maha Kumbh and is making preparations for it, the propagation of Sanatan Dharma is now happening rapidly in various countries of the world including Nepal.
Foreign saints are also happy with the clean and digital Mahakumbh. The priority of the Yogi government of the state is to give a divine and grand form to the Prayagraj Mahakumbh and emphasis is being laid on cleanliness and digitalization. Foreign saints are also happy with this. Anjana Giri, Avdhoot of Juna Akhara, whose first name was Angela, who came from Spain to participate in various events of the Akharas, says that for the last 30 years, she has been continuously coming to Mahakumbh with her Guru. But this time the experience of Mahakumbh is different. The focus has been on sanitation so that there is cleanliness everywhere. Information is also available on digital platforms, which has made it easier for devotees and tourists coming from outside countries.
Bruno Giri, who came from France to participate in the event of Juna Akhara in the Mahakumbh, says that he has already come twice to organize the Mahakumbh, but this time the city seems to have changed, there is a feeling of celebration.
