The significance of bathing during the Maha Kumbh is immense. The bath on special dates is called the royal bath. Maghi Purnima is considered an auspicious day for the Sangam bath.

Maha Kumbh Maghi Purnima 2025: The Maha Kumbh is one of the world's largest spiritual and religious events. The Kumbh Mela, held every 12 years in Prayagraj, holds special significance for saints and devotees. The Maha Kumbh, however, occurs only once every 144 years. During this time, people from all over the world visit the Triveni Sangam to bathe and achieve spiritual purification.

The Maha Kumbh is a bathing festival, as the sacred baths take place from January 13 to February 26, 2025. However, baths on certain special dates are called Amrit Snan and Royal Snan. The last Amrit Snan took place on February 3, during Basant Panchami, and now, the Royal Snans will follow.
