84 Pillars of Faith to Greet Devotees at Maha Kumbh
The New Indian Express Kalaburagi
|January 09, 2025
WITH Mahakumbh just a few days away, 84 red sandstone pillars are engraved on the road to Prayagraj airport.
The installation of the pillars, "Aastha Ke Sthambh" (pillars of faith), has incurred ₹17 crore. Each pillar is adorned with 108 names of Lord Shiva engraved on it and a 'kumbh' (pitcher) atop it. The UP government sourced the red sandstone from Bansi Paharpur in neighboring Rajasthan.
These pillars have been erected in consonance with the Sanatan philosophy, symbolising 84 lakh yonis (forms of birth), which the living beings have to traverse through during the cycle of life and death before attaining salvation (moksha).
"By walking through these 84 pillars in a parikrama, the devotees will metaphorically complete a journey through all the yonis," said Amrit Abhijat, principal secretary (Urban Development Department).

After Men's Asia Cup, will drama spill over to Women's WC?
THE Asia Cup, perhaps, ended in the most apt manner possible. After three weeks of back and forth, multiple handshakegates, geopolitical intrigue, ugly verbals, and press conference point scoring, the post-tournament ceremony finished in farcical circumstances. India refused to take the trophy from the Asian Cricket Council chair Mohsin Naqvi (also Pakistan's interior minister), Naqvi refused to cede ground and India celebrated with an imaginary one to end the night.
