00:00On the day of Amavasya of Magha, if the Sun, Moon and Capricorn are in the sign of Makar

00:07and Jupiter is in the sign of Vrish, then it becomes Kumbh Yoga.

00:12So that Amavasya is one day.

00:15It also has a special time.

00:17But the effect of that, since it goes on for 15 days before and 15 days after,

00:23so for a whole month, it is considered as Kumbh Parvah.

00:30So within that one month, people do the work that is to be done in Kumbh.

00:35In the Shastra, it is also said that when the Sun goes in the sign of Makar in Magha,

00:40then the day of the Gods begins.

00:42Actually, the significance of the Kumbh of Prayag also increases

00:46because the calculation of the time of the Gods and the calculation of the time of the humans

00:52is that when our one year is completed, then one day of the Gods is completed.

00:57So in such a situation, as you people see today's clock,

01:01when the minute hand puts a full circle in it, then the hour hand plays an hour.

01:07It goes a little further.

01:09So in the same way, this calculation of time has been accepted in our country.

01:13So when the Sun comes in the sign of Makar, then the morning of the Gods,

01:17the day of the Gods, then they come to take a bath.

01:21So it is believed that the Gods, to make themselves holy and to prepare for the work of the Gods,

01:27from the heavenly worlds, there are different worlds, different Gods,

01:31from those worlds, when the Sun comes in the sign of Makar,

01:35they come to Prayag Raj and take a bath here.

01:38So the time when the Gods, the bow, the bow, the bow, the bow,

01:42all these are gathered, at that time, we will take a bath with them,

01:46so we will get the result of taking a bath with the Gods.

01:49After taking a bath, people also, we also reach there.

01:53So that is why the speciality of the Kumbhak is here.

01:57So this is their dawn, morning time.

02:00At this time, they are taking a bath.

02:02There are different Yonis of the Gods.

02:04All the Yonis of the Gods will come and take a bath here.

02:08So there is also a desire to take a bath with them.

02:11The second thing is that these Gods go and worship their three main Gods,

02:17Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh.

02:21So the day of Brahma Ji is even more special,

02:25more special than the day of the Gods.

02:28So you understand that the day of Brahma Ji is called Kalpa.

02:32And the day of Brahma Ji means,

02:34like our day will be one day, then the next day,

02:38it will be 365 days and then one year,

02:42then one day of the Gods,

02:44then one day of the Gods and then one year,

02:48then there will be another day.

02:52So, according to our calculation,

02:55our day is 4,32,000 years old.

03:00When that happens, then we have a new era.

03:04and Kali Yuga, which is doubled to 8,64,000 years,

03:14which is doubled to 17,00,000 years,

03:17which is tripled to 36,00,000 years,

03:21which is the Satyug,

03:24then a Chatur Yuga passes.

03:27When a Chatur Yuga passes 1000 times,

03:30then Brahma Ji has one day.

03:33That one day is called Kalpa,

03:35that Brahma Ji has spent one Kalpa.

03:38So, if someone does penance till one Kalpa,

03:42then he gets the result.

03:44So, this month of Magha,

03:48in this month, those who go to Prayagraj,

03:51following the rules,

03:53i.e. waking up in the morning at Brahma Muhurta,

03:55doing Bhumi Sain,

03:57eating one meal,

03:59taking bath in the Ganges three times,

04:01not speaking untruths,

04:03following Brahmacharya,

04:05all these are the rules of our Sanyasis,

04:07following these rules,

04:09even a householder stays there,

04:11that we could not become a Sanyasi,

04:13we are not able to loot the spiritual bliss,

04:15but let us become a Sanyasi for one month.

04:17So, they go for one month

04:19and live a Sanyasi life for one month.

04:22But that one month,

04:24which is spent here in the human world,

04:26is equal to one Kalpa of Brahma Ji.

04:29So, one gets as much spiritual bliss

04:31as one does for one Kalpa.

04:33So, people think that

04:35there can be no better shortcut than this.

04:37If we follow the rules for one month,

04:39then we will get the result of one Kalpa.

04:41So, lakhs of people reach Prayag,

04:43every year,

04:45and for Magha month,

04:47they stay there,

04:49taking bath in the Ganges,

04:51following the rules,

04:53doing Satsang.

04:55It is a great pleasure.

04:57So, the people who are enjoying

04:59food and clothing,

05:01they should also stay there

05:03following the rules for one month.

05:05What happens with this?

05:07With this, they will know

05:09whether the Sanyasis' bliss

05:11is greater than ours or not.

05:13And those who do it there,

05:15they come to know

05:17that their bliss is greater than ours.

05:19Why?

05:21Because our bliss,

05:23when we enjoy things,

05:25it gives us bliss till the last moment,

05:27but not afterwards.

05:29And this bliss,

05:31when we remember it,

05:33it gives us bliss only then.

05:35So, this is the manifestation of

05:37the superiority of spiritual bliss.
