Legend
Kumbh means pot or pitcher. Mela means festival or fair. Hence, the Kumbh Mela means festival of the pot. It specifically relates to the pot of nectar in Hindu mythology. Legend has it that the gods once lost their strength. In order to regain it, they agreed with the demons to churn the primordial ocean of milk for amrit (the nectar of immortality). The Mandara Mountain acted as the churning rod and Vasuki (king of serpents) was used as a rope for churning. Kumbh was the pot which consist the nectar of immortality and was recovered from Samudramanthan. This was to be shared equally between them. They churned the ocean for 1000 years, where demons were holding Vasuki’s head and Gods were holding its tail. Finally after this entire churning process, Dhanwantari appeared with Kumbh in his palms. To prevent the amrita (elixir of immortality) from demons, its safety was entrusted to Gods Brahaspati, Surya, Shani and Chandra. After learning the conspiracy of the Devtas, demons turned vicious and attacked them. However, a fight broke out, which went on for 12 human years. During the battle, the celestial bird, Garuda, flew away with the Kumbh that held the nectar. Drops of nectar are believed to have fallen in the places that the Kumbh Mela is now held -- Prayag (Allahabad), Haridwar, Nashik, and Ujjain.
It is believed that these drops gave mystical powers to these places. It is to make oneself gain on those powers that Kumbh Mela has been celebrated in each of the four places. Pilgrims who attend the Kumbh Mela come to see and listen to these men, in order to gain spiritual enlightenment. The main ritual performed at that Kumbh Mela is the ritual bath. Hindus believe that submerging themselves in the sacred waters on the most auspicious day of the new moon will absolve them and their ancestors of sin, thus ending the cycle of rebirth.

2012 NUMEROLOGY ~Will It Be A Beautiful New Beginning? Or The End Of Life On Earth?


21 DECEMBER 2012
21+12+2012=11
1+1=2

It is the grand date set seemingly by the Mayans,for the destruction of humanity. The end of the world has been predicted many times in the history of mankind. A new date for the end of the world is set on the winter solstice 2012, Friday, December 21, 2012. On December 21 the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar will complete a “great cycle”. This day is predicted to be a day where a major and world changing event will happen. It is said that on Friday, December 21, 2012, about 11:11 minutes, the Earth's magnetic field will reverse and the Earth will change its axis. A new planet, Nibiru, hidden for the moment in the orbit of the Earth, will hit our planet Earth. This alignment of the planets is expected to have catastrophic consequences for the Earth. The cataclysm will also take the form of drift of Earth's crust caused by the warming of Earth's core, natural disasters, earthquakes, ice melting submerging continents, emission of deadly gases, changes in the Earth's magnetic field and shift in North-South poles.

The year 2012 is rapidly approaching and many believe that December 21, 2012 is a day of special significance. The Maya believed that the year indicated an end of a calendar cycle, and a major change would occur. For others, like Nostrodamus and practitioners of I Ching, the year implies either great destruction or great spiritual revolutions.

Many believe that December 21, 2012 marks the beginning of a 10,000 year period of peace and prosperity. 2012 is claimed to be a great year of spiritual transformation mean there will be a major change in world order. Numbers hold the clues as to what will happen in the transition and where the new age will take us. The actual date for this massive worldwide change set by the Mayans is December 21, 2012. When you look at the numbers of this date - 21.12.2012 and then reduce the date down to single digits you get 11. The number 11, when reduced further, results to the number 2. The number 2 in 12/21/2012 represents the world’s challenges, while number 11 represents the “Life Path”. This combination, according to them, is what makes this date particularly promising. The year 2012 is a "5" year. 2+0+1+2=5. Five is a number associated with change. New elements, a changing order and great movement is expected in this year. The number 11 is considered the highly charged brother of 2. Peace and inspiration are the bailiwick of this number, suggesting that the year may be a conduit for great change and a movement toward reform and a new spiritual era. The number 11 is a very significant number in numerology. In fact, it is considered a Master Number. There is an especially high level of spirituality surrounding this number and it is associated with a new age of awareness. It is also connected with high level spiritual practices such as clairvoyance, intuition, ESP, spiritual healing, etc. One of the numerological meanings of number 11 is that it marks the beginning of new cycles. It also indicates the increased spiritual leanings and compassion, and considered as one of the master numbers. Rise of an important personality (God incarnation) to maintain peace and harmony among people and to same the earth from destruction.

According to the 2012 Mayan calendars, December 21, 2012 indicates the next stage of spiritual development for the world and a much needed new set of values. It’s time to get back in touch with the values of love, brotherhood and unity of the next Great Age. It’s appears to be time to move away from unbridled technology, competition and greed the values of the present Great Cycle. People with life path no. 11 and 2 will feel more strong effect of this change.
