Kumbh Mela 2010
Kumbh's history originates from the beginning of the Creation. All devtas were under the influence of a curse that made them weak and coward, Brahma, (the creator God) advised them to churn the ocean for Amrit (Nectar), intake of which will make them immortal,
Devtas sought the help of demons for the purpose. gods and demons made a temporary agreement to work together in obtaining amrita (the nectar of immortality) from the Milky Ocean, and to share this
equally.
After
churning the ocean for a 1,000
years, Dhanwantari, the divine healer, appeared with the "Kumbh" containing nectar in his
palms. The demons ran away with the pot and were chased by the gods. A battle
was fought for twelve days and twelve nights (equivalent to twelve human years)
between the gods and demons in the sky for the possession of this pot of amrita. It is said that during the battle, drops of amrita fell on to four places : Prayag, Haridwar, Ujjain and Nasik. Kumbha mela is observed at these four locations where the nectar fell.
Maha Kumbh is held after every twelve years, which is once in life time
event. Ardh Kumbh which is half comes after every 6 years.
