SUMMARY:Symposium On Kumbha Mela & Pushkaram
DESCRIPTION:Indica is organizing an online symposium on the topic of Kumbh Melas and Pushkara(m) /Pushkaraalu. Kumbh Mela is world’s biggest religious congregation. The most interesting aspect of a Kumbh Mela is that it is based both on Kshetra maahaatmya of a teertha in the form of a river and parva maahaatmya of the time in the form of certain astronomical positions. Pushkaram/Pushkaraalu is the Telugu or south Indian equivalent of Kumbh Mela. The symposium is going to have specially invited talks by researchers\, administrators \, practitioners and saints on a wide range of topics like Historicity\,  Puranic significance\, Administrative experience of an administrator\, Teertha Mahaatmya i.e.\, the spiritual power of rivers\,  Intercultural and Integrational Aspects\, Mahamakham i.e.\,  the Tamil Kumbh Mela\, Pushkaram i.e.\, the Telugu Kumbh Mela \, Spiritual Well being and Saadhanaa . \nSCHEDULE \n\n\n\n\nTimings\nScholar\nTitle\n\n\n02.00-02.15PM\nDr. Nagaraj Paturi\nSenior Director & Dean IKS Studies\, INDICA\nIntroduction & Opening Remarks\n\n\n02.15-03.00PM\nSri Mahesh Zagade\, IAS (Retd.)\nEx-Principal Secretary to Government of Maharashtra\n\nThe Management Of Mega Event Called Kumbhamela-Nashik Experience\n\n\n03.00-03.45PM\nDr. Devi Prasad Dubey\nProf [rtd] of Ancient History Culture & Archaeology\, University of Allahabad\nHistoricity Of The Kumbha Mela\n\n\n03.45-04.30PM\nProf. G Ramesh\nProfessor (Retd)\, IIM Bangalore\n\nBy Grace Of Ganga Mai: Managing A Temporary City On Sand\n\n\n04.30-5.15PM\nSri Mallepalli.
