The History and Mythology of the Kumbh Mel

Focusing on the Kumbh Mela, the world's largest festival held in India every three years, this booklet offers a concise introduction to its rich history and mythology. Originally an appendix to a study on a specific sect of Indian sadhus, it has been reprinted for easier access. Although slightly outdated, as it references limited recent publications, it remains a valuable resource for understanding this significant cultural event.
