basically what i’m getting from these posts is that Burning Man sucks because it’s borne of Americana and Americana sucks because it’s mostly based in capitalism. so my question is whether or not Kumbh Mela sucks because of the caste system or if it sucks at all. when i hear about why festivals are totally rad and don’t suck, i’ll go to one. until then, drugs in my basement.

Seasons Greetings to Everyone Here…

Before making any comment on any subject about Kumbh Mela or Burning Man Festival, you should think twice for the facts.

They can’t be compared in any way. Both are entirely different things.

Burning Man: A place to express oneself. its all about Attitude!

Kumbh Mela: as Dirtwheel said it’s a ‘Short Cut to Nirvana’.
refer http://kumbhmelaallahabad.gov.in for more details….

Thanks

Kumbh Mela is seriously huge. I wouldn’t compare Burning Man to that festival. I think Burning Man would be better compared to the Mission District or downtown Oakland. The comparison is almost identical.

Unlike Burning Man, Kambh Mela looks like a lousy place to try and get a bacon double cheeseburger.

I’ve been to Kumbh Mela. I’d say it doesn’t compare in many ways. There are few if any egotistical assholes at Kumbh Mela. If you coped an attitude at Kumbh Mela, I think you would be laughed out of the festival. Burning Man is all about attitude, about appearing to be something or someone you’re not. It’s a masquerade vacation from your regular dreary life. You can pretend to be a really cool guy or chick at Burning Man – that’s what makes it great.

At Kumbh Mela, these people are really cool guys and chicks in real life. Basically, it’s a lifestyle. Not a poseur fest.

I’ve never been. A good visual on it is called ‘Short Cut to Nirvana’. Just happened upon it about three years ago one day. Wondering if the focus determines the type of gathering? Or is the simple act of gathering create a need for a focus? Is a focus even necessary? Long continuous gatherings always seem to gravitate towards creativity & spirituality.

Jules, you are the best. C.R.E.A.M. Burners are all tainted. That’s why am not going this year. Plus, I hear that next year is going to be WAY better.

I am Mariam used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes…i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Priests Meruja); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps
for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn’t mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I’m sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as oduakar1 here: oduakar1 (at) live.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,it’s all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
more!
