LePictorium_0146057.jpg
During the Khumb Mela, millions of pilgrims attend the great pujas every night on the banks of the river Shipra. The puja is a hindu ritual of offering and adoration. The ceremony starts with a bell tinkling to call the deities and follows with the offering of fresh flowers, incense, spices and candies going with music and mantras. The puja has a predominant role during the Khumb Mela combined with the holy baths in the river, which at this time are charged with healing powers due to the magnetic radiations of the sun, the moon and Jupiter.
