The sacred Kalpvas, a significant spiritual tradition of the Maha Kumbh 2025, will conclude on Maghi Purnima, February 12. Devotees who have been observing Kalpvas since January 13, 2025, will mark the occasion by taking a holy dip in the Sangam, performing puja, and offering daan (charity) before returning home.
Kalpvas is an age-old Hindu practice where devotees reside near a sacred river for a specific period, engaging in self-discipline, spiritual reflection, and purification. Participating in Kalpvas during the Maha Kumbh is considered highly auspicious.
