According to Hindu tradition, a dip in the holy confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati during Maha Kumbh is believed to absolve sins. It is thought to pave the path to salvation. The origins of the Kumbh come from the Puranic tale of the Samudra Manthan. In this tale, drops of divine nectar (amrita) spilled at four locations:
Prayagraj, Haridwar, Nashik, and Ujjain. These sites became sanctified forever.
