 Preface

The Kumbh Mela is a celebration, a festival of the glory of Kumbh. It

is, therefore, a celebration of all knowledge and all life. It symbolises
divinity and knowledge. The Kumbh or Pot of Nectar was churned
from the ocean and meant for distribution- not hoarding. Likewise,
the Nectar of knowledge and spirituality must be churned from
within us and shared with humanity. Magh Mela is celebrated every
year whereas Maha Kumbh is celebrated every 12 years and Kumbh
Mela is celebrated every 6 years.

Read Less The Magh Mela case study stands in stark contrast to the
conception of the anti-social crowd that dominated the early decades
of crowd psychology. But the crowd that undergoes a cognitive and
relational transformation, and whose members may be intimate and
cooperative with each other towards their progressive goals, may
also be in political opposition to other groups. It is worth considering
both what is present within the Magh Mela crowd that promotes
well-being, and also what is absent. There is an absence of tension
within the Magh Mela crowd because other groups with different
identities are not simultaneously present. This may be a key factor in
the way that crowds enhance well-being.
