The priests is being hurt by the Moral and economic blame. The general population is low in reverence of saints, the problem is more in Akhara. So the council of Akhara parishad start individual inquiry of the concerned people who is going to take relinquishment. The moral, social and knowledge will be tested, it will live up to her retirement to his life. For those who have expressed their desire to retire in Kumbh 2013 investigation has just begun. Radhe Ma Mahamandleshwar issue is hurting enough to Council of Akhara Parishad. Many saint already have reached the dignity of his retirement from wrong actions. According to Swami Hari Chatany Brahmchari, anyone can take the relinquishment, but that everyone should follow the prescribed procedure. The spokesman of Council of Akhara Parishad Mahant Durgadas says, We will strictly follow the process it now, to relinquishment at the meet

Will Examine The Relinquishment

Where the person came from his retirement. What is the cause of his retirement, his family background, do not have a criminal history, school has many social and moral is not to blame.

Increasing numbers situation deteriorated

Some time in Akhara - increasing numbers are falling over each other. For this reason he will not try to learn the history of his retirement, the wrong people come into contact with them, which can cause further disrepute.  
 

This is the process of renunciation

Relinquishment in Kumbha and Ardhakumbh is more important. Retired person has to be a three-day fast. Very first day he takes only water, second day milk and third day fruits etc. During this time he start reding Brahmsutra, Panchdashi and Upnishad and as well as he has to complete 24 Lakhs Gaytri Mantra Jap.While Naga Saints just take fast and make note of your adorable.  After completion of fast, he takes tonsure (Kshurkarm)tonsure is left in it's peak with hair, then he makes himself Pind Dan, so no other's do this. After this Vijyahawan takes, Through it he takes determination to distance themselves from each good work (Shubkarm). At the end Acharya Mahamandleshwar cut his peak's of hair from his head and give him a new cloth and name, according to his wisdom responsibility given.

Illegaly No. of website start booking for Kumbh Mela


Come January and the uneven banks of the Ganga-Yamuna will yet again play host to a jamboree of religiosity, culture, beliefs and plenty of frolic. An estimated 100 million people — s adhus , pilgrims, merchants, crooks, curious foreigners and revellers — will swarm the ghats of the s angam for 55 days.
The Sangam: Thousands swarm these ghats during the Kumbh Mela


Some hope to wash their sins into the Ganga, while others get dragged by tradition and faith. And there are those who cannot resist but be part of an unmatched human congregation called the Maha Kumbh Mela. Journalists will vie for exclusive shots of ash smeared s adhus bathing in icy waters, while anecdote after anecdote will be shelled at public memory.

However, some tales will remain unsaid and some pictures will never be framed. These stories are of the few hundred people, who break bread, gather water and make their living by the ghats and areas nearby. They occupy these lands illegally but with nowhere else to go, this is home.

“It’s uncertain. Sometimes I sell enough but sometimes I sell nothing at all,” says Janki. She feeds her two children by selling ‘puja items’, while her husband rows the boat for tourists.

Like her, many men, women and children here use their thatch-roofed bamboo huts or wooden trolleys to sell anything from oily snacks, beverages, coconuts and prasadam to necklaces, bangles, photos, idols, tikas and saffron cloths. Those who have nothing to sell need the ghats for shelter. But, with the water level rising rapidly, these ‘ghatwallahs’ will soon need to relocate to higher ground, where only those who already own ‘stalls’ will be allocated space. But beyond the ghats they will also have to reckon with congestion and competing vendors. And once the grand mela begins, the big merchants will set up shop.

For the many homeless who beg for survival, there is no respite. They will have to find new hunting grounds till the mela is over. They are usually banned from the premises but many still manage to sneak in. “Beggars have been traditionally known to be sent to forests till the mela got over. These days they leave on their own before the authorities come and chase them out,” says 62-year-old Ramesh Mishra, a Hindu priest from a village by the Ganga.

The rag tents, tied to trees, poles and signboards, and supported by the odd bricks, will be dismantled once the Army starts clearing the 500 acre mela ground. “Last time, I managed to save whatever clothes I could from the water. My husband can't work as he has tuberculosis. What shall we do? Save our children or our grains?” asks Munni, who traces her roots to Madhya Pradesh.

In the 46 villages of the three neighbouring tehsils , however, residents harbour a mixed feeling for the mela . While they revere the legend and sanctity of the Maha Kumbh, they also lament the disruption of normal life caused every year. With ever-increasing footfall, the number of villages allotted for the mela has increased since 2001, when 26 villages were allotted. This time, the mela will spread over an area of 20 km. Mela authorities have begun acquiring the allotted 5,522 bigha village lands for the next six months.

Though the villagers have been promised “a fair compensation”, some of them are not convinced. “Only those with ‘setting’ get proper compensation. Nothing is done for the poor ones. Nobody cares whether we live or die,” says Kishen Lal, a farmer.

“We are at peace for 11 months. But once the melas start, we are thrown away from our own areas for outsiders to enjoy and bathe in the waters we live on,” says Mama, a frail old man.

Not much change for the boatmen either. They continue to ferry people for holy dips at the sangam , where the yellowish waters of the Yamuna delicately merge with the muddy Ganga.

Meanwhile, on the lush fields toward the city, hordes of metal pontoon bridges are being built. Preparations at the ghats, however, can only start once the rivers settle down after flooding.

Akbar's Fort, built in 1583, still stands daunting over the north bank of the Yamuna. Its high red walls partially shrouded by overgrowth of bushes and flags fluttering over the boats beneath, make it irresistible for the outsider.

The people who live under it, though, do not seem to care much about history.

As the ghats are readied for Allahabad’s Maha Kumbh in January, people who have made their homes on the banks of the Ganga-Yamuna await another season of eviction
Breaking bread on icy waters


Puri Shankaracharya, Swami Adhokshjanand Tirtha expressed his desire to invite the separatists to attend Kumbh Mela, the biggest religious festival of the country. Heading one of the five main religious seats of Hindus in the country, Swami is on a visit to Kashmir valley in connection with annual Amarnath Yatra.

During the visit he  met hard-line separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, moderate Hurriyat leader and chief Muslim Cleric Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front Chairman, Yasin Malik.

"Kumbh is a place where people from across the country converge. It is where Ganga, Jamuna and Saraswati meet. And we want to invite the people with separatist ideologies from Kashmir and other areas of North east to listen to them and discuss their problems with other countrymen," Swami told Hindustan Times.

"It is an attempt towards peace. We want to send a message to our countrymen that the issue in Kashmir is not Hindu versus Muslim or Indians versus Kashmiris but it is a political issue," he said.

The Shankaracharya, who met separatists in 1998 to convince them for talks, said that Kashmiris were not 'communal’ as was the belief across India.

"I have seen the real face of people of valley. Amarnath Yatra is successful only due to the efforts of local Kashmiri Muslims.  They carry the pilgrims on their shoulders, they guide and serve them during the Yatra. This image should be known to the whole World," Swami said.

"What one can infer from their thinking is that they respect Hindus but have some political issues which need to be addressed," he stated.

Mirwaiz Umar Farooq confirmed that Swami met him at his Nigeen residence. "He maintained that religious people always side with truth. And he has come to portray the real situation of Kashmir in India. He also expressed his desire to invite Hurriyat Chairman to Kumbh mela as a leader and a prominent religious figure of the valley," Hurriyat said in a statement.

JKLF Chairman Yasin Malik hailed Shankacharya  for 'inviting  him to this year's Kumbh Mela for reaching out to the people of India'.

"Shankaracharya Jee as a religious leader rules the hearts and minds of billions of Indians. Kashmiris have always stood for communal harmony and have looked towards Swami Jee a true leader of masses and one who stands for truth and humanity," Malik said in a statement.

"During a visit to Kashmir in 1997-98,  when Acharya Jee saw the sufferings of people here, he was furious. He went back and raised his voice for Kashmiris and despite a lot of pressures refused to budge and stood for the just cause," Malik stated.


Puri Shankaracharya to invite Kashmir separatists to Kumbh Mela 2013


In Hinduism, sadhu ( “good man, holy man”) denotes an ascetic, wandering monk. Although the vast majority of sadhus are yogis, not all yogis are sadhus. The sadhu is solely dedicated to achieving moksa (liberation), the fourth and final asrama (stage of life), through meditation and contemplation of brahman. Sadhus often wear ochre-colored clothing, symbolizing their sanyasa (renunciation). This way of life is open to women; the female form of the word is sadhvi. Sadhus are sanyasi, or renunciation, who have left behind all material and sexual attachments and live in caves, forests and temples all over World.

Kumbh Mela or the Kumbh festival invites millions of tourist, pilgrims and foreign national to be the part of this glory of history that hindu religion has to offer human kind. However, not only kumbh festival the major crowd puller to this religious event are Sadhus and Naga baba. These naga baba attracts the attention of all due to their rare appearance and their extra ordinary rituals.
Travelers from round the globe drop in to be a part of Kumbh Mela or Kumbh festival inorder to have a glance of these Naga sadhus meditate and perform the weird religious and spiritual activities. Naga Sadhus belongs to different Akharas (which means camps) and each akharash have their own set of Naga Babas who are living this world in most unconventional way and follow their own set of religion and spiritual activities without caring about this world.
The identification feature of Naga Sadhus include being naked with long hairs knotted with different metals and body smeared with ashes. Not only this, one can see Naga Sadhus could be seen wearing beads of Rudraksha, believe to posses positive healing power according to Hindu mythology. Not just a few but you can witness Naga sadhus wearing thousand of Rudraksha beads and is believed that wearing Eleven thousand Rudrakhsa beads will help them attain the form of Lord Shankara or Lord Shiva.

Dashanami Sampradaya or Dasanami, literally Tradition of Ten Names (Dasa meaning ten and Naama meaning name in Sanskrit), is a Hindu monastic tradition of Ekadandis or wandering renunciates carrying a single staff or stick of knowledge, generally associated with the Advaita Vedanta tradition. It is supposed that they differ in their practices from the tridandi-sannyasis (who carry a triple staff) or Vaishnava sannyasis. The tridandi sanyasis keep the sacred thread on, upon accepting renunciation, while the Ekadandis often do not wear the sacred thread upon accepting renunciation.
The Ekadandi vedantins aim for moksha as the existence of the self in its natural condition indicated by the destruction of all its specific qualities. Any Hindu, irrespective of class, caste, age or gender can seek Sanyasa as an Ekadandi monk under the Dashanami tradition.
The Ekadandis or Dasanamis had established monasteries in India and Nepal in ancient unknown times [3]. After the decline of Buddhism, a section of the Ekadandis were organized by Adi Shankara in the 8th century in India to be associated with four mutts to provide a base for the growth of hinduism. However, the association of the dasanamis with the Shankara mutts remained a nominal one.

Ten Names (Dashanami)

Hindus who take up sanyasa in the Ekadandi tradition take up one of the ten names associated with this sampradaya.
1.    Saraswati
2.    Tirtha
3.    Aranya
4.    Bharati
5.    Ashrama
6.    Giri: The Kriya Yoga tradition comes under the Giri order.
7.    Parvata
8.    Sagara
9.    Vana
10.  Puri
  • Saraswati, Puri and Bharati are associated with the Sringeri Sharada Peetham. 
  • Tirtha and Ashrama are associated with the Dwaraka Pitha. 
  • Giri, Parvata and Sagara are associated with Jyotirmath. 
  • Vana and Aranya are associated with the Govardhana matha at Puri.
However, it is to be noted that the association of the Ekadandis with the above mathas is only a nominal one. One of the reasons for the nominal affiliation is believed to stem from the understanding of varna Varna in Hinduism as supposedly fixed by birth by the Shankara mutts, while the Dasanamis continue to allow anyone seeking Sanyasam into their fold irrespective of caste or gender. An example, is the Kriya Yoga tradition that admits anyone irrespective of caste, creed, sex and religion.

Maha Kumbha 2013 : Dashanami Sampradaya


Shri Adi Shankaracharya or the first Shankara with his remarkable reinterpretations of Hindu scriptures, especially on Upanishads or Vedanta, had a profound influence on the growth of Hinduism at a time when chaos, superstition and bigotry was rampant. Shankara advocated the greatness of the Vedas and was the most famous Advaita philosopher who restored the Vedic Dharma and Advaita Vedanta to its pristine purity and glory.

Shankaracharya's Monastic Centers

Shri Shankaracharya established four 'mutts' or monastic centers in four corners of India and put his four main disciples to head them and serve the spiritual needs of the ascetic community within the Vedantic tradition. He classified the wandering mendicants into 10 main groups to consolidate their spiritual strength.

Each mutt was assigned one Hinduism Veda. The mutts are Jyothir Mutt at Badrinath in northern India with Atharva Veda; Sarada Mutt at Sringeri in southern India with Yajur Veda; Govardhan Mutt at Jaganath Puri in eastern India with Rig Veda and Kalika Mutt at Dwarka in western India with Sama Veda.

It is believed that Shankara attained heavenly abode in Kedarnath and was only 32 years old when he died.

Maha Kumbha 2013 : The Major Attraction of Mutts (Monastery)


From Mahabharat Jarasandha's Akhara is an ancient historical monument at Rajgir in Bihar, India

What is Akhada ?
The word “Akhada”, according to one historical version is originated from Sanskrit word “Akhanda” (constant / continuous / undivided). Its usage started from the need to maintain continuous vigil against the adversaries by the group / outfit of armed Sadhus and Sants specially established to protect their own faith and traditions. Small section / wing of the Akhada is called ANI or KHALSA.

Foreign aggressions as well as intra-sampraday differences caused growth of the Akhadas (6th century onwards). Over the years, these Akhadas have grown up into an institution like the Mutts and they are managed and run by the office-bearers like Shri Mahant, Mukhya Mahants, Sthaniya Mahant (Thanapati), Sachiv, Adhikari, Karbaris, Kothari, Pujari, etc. The members of the Akhadas practice ‘Bramhacharya’ and ‘Virakti’ and they propagate their faith to instill moral, cultural and spiritual values in the society.

The AKHADA is an armed outfit of the Sampradayas. Avahan Akhada was the first one to come into existence in 547 AD.
