This is a sample of opinions about the Khumb Mela from the BBC, Artichoke and other forums.
It looks a bit scary as everyone seems to be smoking drugs and covered in ashes….can be very easy to catch a disease near the Ganges where the ashes of the dead are thrown and even dead bodies thrown in….
Imagine how many rapes take place during this “kumb mela” it must be the area with the most rape cases worldwide in the second picture they are cleaning each other while nude. Totally disgusting this is a gathering for the poor, uneducated and the illiterate. With these crampt conditions it must be hurrendus, disseases will spread like wild fire and peaple say Glastonburry is crampt. I dont even want to know whats in that river half burnt (cremated) bodies, dirt from peaple baving in the water, bacteria, viruses, hepatitis, many many disseses and peaple call this “holy water”. They think they are “washing away there sins” they are actualy washing themself with extremely dirty water and making themselves more un-hygienic.

Traders also sell bhang lassi, a sweet, bright green drink made of buffalo milk, yoghurt, sugar and hash, served in a clay mug. Non-psychoactive lassi may also be purchased and it may be more expensive than the wacky kind. Like much of Indian bureaucracy, the legal status of the drug is difficult to understand. There are government bhang lassi shops, and sadhus smoke charas openly and prodigiously, as Lord Shiva likes to in his Himalayan cave, but in some cases it does appear to be illegal (you may not smoke a joint in some of the guesthouses or in the street). When the drink is finished, partakers smash their mugs in the streets, and wait for about an hour for their sense of reality to meet the same fragmented fate.
At the river’s edge, the corpse is given a final bath in the water of the Ganges. Twenty yards down the river, the living are splashing around, shaving, brushing their teeth and pissing in the same holy water. Parmahansa Yogananda, founder of the Self-Realization Fellowship, tells us that the water of the Holy Ganges is perpetually clean, despite the massive amounts industrial and human waste emptied into it every day; the holy water acts as a kind of spiritual disinfectant. As corpses are considered unclean in Hinduism, as are the turds released into it every morning all the way from the Himalayas to the Bay of Bengal, perhaps the Indians washing happily share this conviction. The bathing of the living and the dead in the same stretch of water seems to embrace the idea that death is a part of life, and serves to remind us that it will come to all of us, and is not to be feared. Again, I think this is an acknowledgment of the importance of non-attachment to the flesh in the Hindu faith. Western doctors however, advise their charges not to go into the Ganges, and this advice is generally taken by all but the most Indophilic of seekers. A brave minority however cast away their passports, given names and senses of irony at the holy river, in addition to the words of their doctors.
The Ganges is said to flow from heaven to earth through the matted locks of Lord Shiva in the Himalayas, and it has a deep religious significance for Hindus. There are countless temples dotted along the murky river, some of them sinking into its soft sand, and Indians climb over and jump off the ruins to wash alongside the dead at all times of the day. You quickly become used to the smell of roasting flesh, which closely resembles that of burning hair, and is in any case preferable to the acrid stench of the detritus in every alleyway.
The holy dip in river Ganges is some thing that no Hindu ever wants to miss. It is believed that after taking a bath in the Ganges one becomes sacred and innocent as a new-born child. But belief is just a belief. The Ganges is now so polluted that taking bath or even just a dip is quite dangerous.
This whole Mela seems like a big GERM! How can people even think about going into the Ganges River which is polluted with god knows what? And all those men flashing their private parts in public is so disgusting! What kind of celebration is this?
I have smelled the river before 70 million people have bathed in it; I have no desire to be anywhere near it afterwards.
Some 60 million Hindus are usually attend Kumbh Mela which is a Hindu pilgrimage that occurs four times every twelve years and rotates among four locations: Allahabad (Prayag), Haridwar, Ujjain and Nashik. Each twelve-year cycle includes one Maha Kumbh Mela (Great Kumbh Mela) at Prayag, which is attended by millions of people, making it the largest gathering anywhere in the world
There are a lot of activities:
1) Millions of Naked Sadus show up. Activities include religious discussions, devotional singing, mass feeding of holy men and women and the poor, and religious assemblies where doctrines are debated and standardized. Kumbh Mela (especially the Maha Kumbh Mela) is the most sacred of all the pilgrimages.

2) Cows are there
3) Urine drinking is extolled (both Cow Urine and personal urine).
4) Drugs are also available to get to the higher level. Bhang is the drug of choice, but hashish and other drugs are everywhere.
5) “Dancers” from all of the country show up to entertain the naked millions.
