इंजिनियर से लेकर मैनेजमेंट ग्रेजुएट तक, दस हजार लोगों ने ली नागा साधु बनने की दीक्षा Thousands​ renounce world to choose tough life of Naga sadhu this Kumbh

Thousands including Muslims and Christians in an initiation ceremony last week attained vairagya or detachment became Naga sadhus

 Jana Akhara told TOI that in each initiation ceremony, thousands were inducted into akharas. Any person can achieve vairagya or detachment and become a Naga irrespective of their caste, religion or colour.

This year’s Kumbh saw thousands abjuring lucrative vocations like Engineering, Management to become Naga Sadhus More than 10000 people are expected to renounce the world and embrace the Naga sect in this year's Kumbh. 

The initiation ceremony of Naga sadhus happens only during Kumbh

According to the Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad (ABAP), the highest body of the country’s akharas (a sect of seers), it is estimated that over 10,000 men and women are taking Deeksha (initiation) and becoming Naga sadhus this Kumbh. Many of whom have degrees in Engineering, Management and other professions from prestigious institutes across the country. The largest of the akharas, Juna Akhara has initiated about 1100 so far and there have been planned a few more mass initiations by them in this month to initiate the enthusiasts into Naga way of life...

 प्रयागराज में इस वक्त जोरों शोरों से कुंभ का आयोजन चल रहा है। इस दौरान कई युवा नागा साधु भी बने हैं। बीते हफ्ते हुए दीक्षा समारोह में हजारों युवाओं ने अपने बाल त्यागे और अपना खुद का पिंड दान किया। रातभर चली अग्नि पूजा के बाद ये सभी प्राचीन परंपरा के अनुसार नागा साधु बने। हैरानी की बात तो ये है कि इन लोगों में बड़ी संख्या में इंजीनियरिंग और मैनेजमेंट के ग्रेजुएट भी शामिल हैं।
