Wave upon wave of bliss. The darshan -- the blessings -- of all the
magnificent saints and yogis who come out of their Himalayan caves only once
very 12 years in order to bless the people. And this is the Maha Kumbh Mela
("the great festival of the pot of nectar - amrit kalash - of immortality") that
happens once every 144 years. A once in a lifetime, unforgettable event!
The guru of the famous saint Paramahansa Yogananda, author of
Autobiography of a Yogi, met his guru, the Mahavatar Babaji, at Kumbh Mela.
