00:00His name is Naga, which means the one who is a symbol of firmness,
00:04who never moves, who is not swayed by his own will.
00:07The person who has such a way of thinking is called Naga.
00:12Now, Naga has also been taken in the sense of nakedness,
00:15because the sanyasis, when they become sanyas,
00:19they give up everything.
00:20They give up everything, become completely naked,
00:23and are ready to go towards the Himalayas.
00:26So, at that time, their guru, just like we became sanyas,
00:30we also have the same way of thinking.
00:32We give up everything, we don't want to keep anything.
00:35We give up everything, like shikha, shudra, etc.
00:37We become naked and go towards the Himalayas to do penance.
00:41Then Guru Maharaj said, wait.
00:43As soon as you walk 8 steps, he stopped you.
00:45He gave you a cap and tight clothes.
00:49He said, wear this.
00:51You have to do sadhana as per our orders.
00:54So, the gurus stop them, that's why the sanyasis stop.
00:56Otherwise, they become completely naked and want to go to the Himalayas
01:01to do penance after becoming sanyas.
01:04So, this state of being completely naked,
01:06the word Naga has been added to that as well.
01:09So, the sanyasis who don't wear clothes,
01:12who remain naked,
01:14who are called Digambar,
01:16who remain in the disguise of Digambar,
01:17they also come.
01:20The importance of Nagas has increased in the society.
01:24This is their importance from a spiritual point of view.
01:27But what happened is that in our history,
01:31there were many religious attacks in the past.
01:35There were many attackers in our country
01:38who were interested in the wealth of this place,
01:41but they were also interested in the religion of this place.
01:43They wanted to destroy the religion of this place
01:46and establish their religion here.
01:48In such a time, when there was a need to protect the religion,
01:52the Nagas presented themselves and they fought battles.
01:56So, there are many such battles in history
01:58which the Nagas, the sanyasis, the sadhus fought.
02:01There were also detractors among them, there were also sanyasis.
02:04And these people dedicated their lives to protecting their religion.
02:07So, since they did this, their importance,
02:12in the eyes of the common people as well as in the eyes of the rulers of our country,
02:16because if there is someone who is ready to sacrifice his life for the religion,
02:23then people follow him.
02:25So, they were respected as brave men, as protectors of the religion, as brave men.
02:30And since then, they were given special respect.
02:34And the royal respect, when there were royal people,
02:38they gave it to them.
02:39So, they were given special trips to bathe.
02:42Since then, they have been made special Mahatmas in Kumbh Parbha.
02:45Is there any tradition in Kumbh Parbha to convert them?
02:51I mean, is there any tradition of making Nagas?
02:52It so happens that there are deekshas in Kumbh Parbha.
02:57So, a lot of people keep thinking, where will they find a Guru, where will they find a Guru?
03:00These days, through WhatsApp and media, everyone knows where the Guru is at this time.
03:06But at some time, there was no such facility in the media.
03:09So, it was not known where the Guru was.
03:11And the sanyasis used to roam around all the time.
03:14So, people used to know that wherever the Guru is,
03:16when Kumbh Parbha will come, he will come.
03:18So, we will go there and take deekshas from him.
03:20Till then, they used to wait.
03:22So, in Kumbh Parbha, from many directions,
03:24many disciples who wanted to take deekshas used to gather.
03:29So, there used to be a program of deekshas.
03:31So, deekshas used to take place there in detail.
03:33That tradition is still going on.
03:35So, when Kumbh Parbha is celebrated,
03:37the Gurus stay there.
03:39Many disciples pray for deekshas at that time.
03:42So, they take deekshas at that time.
03:47It takes place in all four Kumbhs,
03:49especially in Prayag.
03:51In Prayag, there is a special Mahatma who takes deekshas.
03:56Maharaj Ji, I have one last question.
03:58What is the meaning of Kalpavasa?
04:00And what is the word used to describe it?
04:05Like, people do Kalpavasa in Prayag,
04:08in such a severe cold.
04:09Here, it is like this.
04:11This is the Amavasya of Magha.
04:14On this day of Amavasya,
04:15if the sun, moon, and cuckoo are in the sign of Makar,
04:17and the householder, Guru, is in the sign of Vrish,
04:22then it becomes Kumbh Yoga.
04:24So, that Amavasya is one day.
04:26There is a special time for that as well.
04:28But the effect of that,
04:30because it goes on for 15 days before and 15 days after,
04:34that is why the whole month is considered Kumbh Parvahi.
04:40So, in that one month,
04:42people do all the work that is to be done in the Kumbh.
04:46In the Shastra, it is also said that
04:47when the sun goes in the sign of Makar in Magha,
04:50then the day of the deities begins.
04:53Actually, the significance of the Kumbh of Prayag
04:55increases because the work of the deities
