The grandeur and spiritual significance of the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj continue to attract visitors not only from across India but also from around the world. Among the international visitors deeply influenced by Indian culture are three friends from Italy who have arrived to witness the divinity of the Maha Kumbh Mela. Staying in a camp in the meal area, they have fully embraced the experience, even dressing in traditional saffron attire.

One of the visitors, Emma, a yoga instructor, expressed her fascination with India’s rich cultural heritage and spirituality. Sharing her sentiments, she remarked, “This is my first time visiting the Maha Kumbh. I am a yoga teacher, and many of my friends are Indians. I deeply admire Indian culture, and I feel as if I was Indian in my previous birth. I love Indian music, bhajans and kirtans. The arrangements here at the Maha Kumbh are excellent.”

Her companion, Pietro, also captivated by the spiritual atmosphere, shared his perspective. “I am a yoga practitioner and have some knowledge of Indian culture. The Kumbh Mela is the largest spiritual event of Sanatan Dharma, and this is my first visit here. When my friends planned this trip, I decided to join them to experience this extraordinary event.”

Another member of the group, Stefano, mentioned that his curiosity about the Maha Kumbh was sparked by his friends from Russia who had previously visited India and embraced the life of Naga sadhus. “This is my first visit to the Kumbh. Some of my sadhu friends from Russia shared their experiences about the event, which inspired me to come here,” he explained.
