Science behind Kumbh Mela -- By: Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev

Kumbh Melas are held at specific spots in the country around which a whole energy system was created. Because the earth is spinning, it creates a centrifugal force. From 0 to 33 degrees latitude, this force is largely working in a vertical manner in your system, and particularly at 11 degrees, the energies are shooting straight up. So, the ancients calculated and marked out points on the planet where there is a supportive influence on people. Many points happen to be confluences of rivers and there is a benefit to bathing in those areas. If one is at that spot on a particular day, rare possibilities become available, so people moved there to benefit from this. Nowhere else on the planet does such a large number of people long for liberation with such intensity.
