About
The Maha Kumbh Mela is the oldest and largest gathering of human beings on the planet. More than 1000 Kumbh Mela festivals have happened over the ages. It is a massive Hindu pilgrimage aimed at keeping the spiritual goals in sight for the multitude of seekers who merge into the ocean of humanity and become one. Sanatana Dharma (known in modern times as Hinduism) boasts a glorious history of tens of thousands of years. Hinduism is known for its tenets of religious tolerance and harmony.
The Akhil Bharatiya Akhada Parishad (ABAP) has been organizing the Kumbh Mela in India since time immemorial. It is the apex body of Hinduism, including all the 13 Akhadas (houses of monks) and over 1 million sadhus (spiritual seekers). On October 24, 2015, the previous Kumbh Mela USA was celebrated in a grand fashion in Norwalk, California.
The upcoming Kumbh Mela USA will be celebrated on February 2, 2025 in Los Angeles, California.
