The camp of the akhadas has been decorated and prepared in the Prayagraj Mahakumbh. The saints and mahatmas of all the akhadas have also camped in their respective camps. In the Mahakumbh, this camp of the akhadas remains bustling with the crowd of saints and devotees throughout the day. The ganga of religion and spirituality keeps flowing in the camp throughout the day. Worship and yagya keep going on. The most special evening aarti in the spiritual event of the akhadas is. When the aarti of the Isht Dev and Pradhan Devta of the akhada installed under the dharma Dhwaj starts, the whole atmosphere becomes devotional.

To know what is special in the evening aarti of the akhadas, the team of ABP Live reached the Agni Akhara of the sanyasis. Here every day at around 7 pm, first of all the presiding deity of the Akhara, Mata gayatri and the main deity, Lord Bholenath, are decorated afresh. Both of them have been installed side by side in the camp of the Akhara, just below the dharma Dhwaj. After this, a group of saints and sages gather. After this, the Aarti is started. First of all, the Aarti of the Yagyashala is performed. After this, the Aarti of the Akhada's revered Mata gayatri and then the main deity Lord Bhole Shankar. Lastly, the Aarti of the dharma Dhwaj is performed.

Aarti is performed to the beat of drums, cymbals and tabla

Here, Aarti is performed for about half an hour to the beat of drums, cymbals, tabla and dhak. After this, the series of Bhajan Kirtan begins. The saints themselves present devotional songs and pour the ganga of tunes. After the long Bhajan Kirtan, the phase of Pukar begins. The group of saints participating in the Aarti roams around the entire camp and greets the saints and Mahatmas. Before this, circumambulations are also done around the temples of Isht Dev and Pradhan Devta.

According to Mahant Virendranand Brahmachari associated with the Akhara and the secretary of the Akhara, Gianand Brahmachari, the mistakes committed knowingly or unknowingly are atoned for in the Aarti and the well-being of all is prayed for. A large number of devotees gather daily to see the sandhya Aarti held in the Akharas and take a dip in the ganga of religion and spirituality.
