Which Deity To Worship Before Taking A Dip At Triveni Sangam?
Before taking the sacred dip at Triveni Sangam, it is essential to worship the right deities. According to tradition, devotees should first offer prayers to Lord Varuna, the deity of water and oceans.
Lord Varuna plays a pivotal role in sanctifying the water that grants spiritual merit to those who bathe in it. Ancient scriptures, including the Vedas and Puranas, extol the greatness of Lord Varuna, emphasizing his connection to the purity of water. Without his blessings, the significance of a holy dip remains incomplete.
Visitors to Maha Kumbh 2025 should also worship Lord Vishnu, who is often referred to as Pundarikaksha, meaning "the one with lotus-like eyes." Seeking his blessings ensures spiritual well-being and divine grace before entering the sacred confluence.
By adhering to these traditions and performing the prescribed rituals, devotees can enhance their spiritual experience at the Maha Kumbh Mela, making their visit to Prayagraj truly fulfilling.
