Prayagraj, Feb 18 (UNI) Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and renowned South Indian film star Pawan Kalyan on Tuesday took a holy dip in the Triveni Sangam, embracing the spiritual significance of the Maha Kumbh.
Describing the grand religious gathering as a profound symbol of human unity, Kalyan emphasised the shared essence of faith. "We may differ in language and culture, but our religion is one. We are Sanatanis, and for every Sanatani, Maha Kumbh is the most significant moment," he said.
Janasena Party chief Pawan Kalyan called it 'a blessed experience.' He praised the Uttar Pradesh government for the excellent arrangements at Maha Kumbh and extended his best wishes to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
Recalling his long-standing fascination with the grand event, he said, "I once read a Yogi's autobiography when I was 16 or 17, and since then, I have been drawn to the Kumbh. Although I have visited Kumbh earlier also, taking a dip during the Maha Kumbh has been my biggest wish for decades, and today, it has finally come true."
Describing the Maha Kumbh as an extraordinary event, he said, "Imagine, more than half of the country's Hindu population gathers here to take a holy dip. This is the unwavering faith of Sanatan Dharma that has kept this tradition alive for centuries. The greatness of our heritage and Sanatan culture lies in the fact that such a vast and peaceful event continues with immense devotion and grandeur, purely on the strength of people's faith."
Expressing his reverence for Maha Kumbh, the Janasena Party chief described it as one of the most significant moments in Sanatan Dharma. "This is a time when sages, yogis, and spiritual masters converge, creating an aura of positive energy. It is a moment where one can truly experience divine realisations, an experience that will remain etched in memory for a lifetime," he said.
He said that Maha Kumbh serves as a meeting ground for people following different traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices, making it a deeply enriching and unifying experience.
"India has one soul, and the Maha Lumbh is a moment where one can truly feel its essence," he said.
Kalyan also lauded the grand arrangements made for the event, commending CM Yogi Adityanath and the local administration for their efforts in ensuring a seamless and spiritually uplifting experience for the devotees.
