The religious fairs held in India from time immemorial are known as Kumbha Melas; they have kept spiritual goals in the sight of the multitude.
— Paramahansa Yogananda
Inspired by these words of our beloved Gurudeva, Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (YSS) has been organizing camps during Kumbha Melas. Likewise, we are planning to set up a YSS Camp at the Kumbha that will be held at Prayagraj (Allahabad) early next year. YSS/SRF devotees are welcome to attend this camp.
The Camp will be functional on the Kumbha Mela grounds from January 10 to February 15, 2025. This period will cover the bathing days of Paush Purnima (Monday, January 13), Makar Sankranti (Tuesday, January 14), Mauni Amavasya (Wednesday, January 29), Basant Panchami (Monday, February 3), and Magha Purnima (Wednesday, February 12).
Throughout the camp period at the Kumbha Mela, various spiritual programmes will be conducted by YSS sannyasis to enrich the stay of devotees. These will include morning and evening group meditations, kirtans (devotional chanting), and satsangas.
Registration Opens in September 2024
Registration for participating in the YSS camp will open in September this year.
Given the limited availability of space at the venue, and to cater to maximum number of devotees, we would be offering accommodation at the YSS camp for up to four days and three nights.
SRF Devotees
We welcome SRF devotees to participate in the spiritual programmes organized by YSS in the camp during the Kumbha Mela. Considering the austere living arrangements in the camp, we suggest that SRF devotees stay in nearby hotels. However, if you prefer to stay at the YSS camp, we shall accommodate.
Contact
We will share more information in September 2024 on how to register for this programme, along with other details necessary for YSS and SRF devotees to plan their travel for this unique spiritual event.
