Mahakumbh : Young devotees leave engineering and modelling to embrace ancient Sanatan

Wednesday, 15 January 2025 | Biswajeet Banerjee | Mahakumbh Nagar

The ancient Sanatan culture is witnessing a growing attraction among today’s youth, especially those from professional backgrounds. Anchors, models, and engineers, both from India and abroad, are increasingly embracing the Sanatan faith and spirituality.

The Mahakumbh has become a platform where such transformations are evident.

Several inspiring stories have emerged during the Mahakumbh.

Among them, a young woman from Uttarakhand, Harsha, left the world of glamour to embrace spirituality and took initiation from Swami Kailashananda Giri. Similarly, Abhay Singh, known as “Engineer Baba,” a former Aerospace Engineering student from IIT Bombay, is introducing devotees to the profound depths of spirituality using scientific principles.

Harsha, a resident of Uttarakhand, was once a part of the national and international glamour industry. Seeking deeper fulfillment, she took spiritual initiation into Sanatan Dharma during the Maha Kumbh.

Sharing her experience, she said, “A life full of show and superficial glamour left me feeling empty. I realized that true happiness and peace lie in the teachings of Sanatan Dharma. After taking initiation from Swami Kailashanand Giri, I have discovered a new purpose in life.”

Abhay Singh, famously known as “Engineer Baba,” hails from Haryana and is a former Aerospace Engineering student from IIT Bombay.

He has captivated the devotees at Mahakumbh with his unique approach, blending scientific knowledge with spiritual wisdom.

Using diagrams and visual presentations, he simplifies complex spiritual concepts, making them relatable to modern minds.

“Science helps explain the physical world, but its deeper study inevitably leads one towards spirituality. A true understanding of life ultimately brings one closer to spirituality,” he shared while engaging with devotees.

The ongoing Mahakumbh has not only brought millions together but has also become a space where spiritual transformation is visibly unfolding. Personalities like Engineer Baba and Harsha stand as examples of how individuals, once immersed in modern professions, are seeking the peace and stability offered by Sanatan Dharma.

Their journey reflects a growing realization that material success alone cannot provide lasting fulfillment.

Mahakumbh not only showcases the greatness of Sanatan Dharma but also highlights the need for spirituality in the lives of professionals and youth.
