Ambubachi Festival and its Secrets! The Festival That Shocked the World

This temple closes every year for 4 mysterious days. Before the closure, priests dress the goddess in a white cloth. Amazingly, after 3 days, when the temple reopens, the cloth turns red. It is believed that the goddess menstruates during this time. The red cloth is then given to devotees, who keep it at home to ward off negative energies and bring prosperity. This is the famous Ambubachi Mela, also known as the Mahakumbh of the East. Welcome to Kamakhya Temple in Assam, India. Let’s visit and experience the powerful energy together. Nestled in the lush hills of Nilachal in Guwahati, Assam, the Kamakhya Temple is one of the oldest and most revered temples dedicated to the Goddess Kamakhya. Every year, this sacred site becomes the center of a grand celebration – the Ambubachi Mela Held during the Assamese month of Ahaar, which corresponds to mid-June, the festival attracts thousands of devotees, sadhus, and tourists from across the country and the world. The mela spans four days, marking the belief that during this period, the Goddess undergoes her annual cycle. The temple doors are closed for the first three days, signifying the Goddess’s period of rest and privacy and its called Pravritti Coming here during Ambubachi Mela is a deeply spiritual experience. We believe that the Goddess blesses all her devotees with prosperity and fertility. Worshipping Maa near the temple is the most auspicious thing to do during these 3 days. Tantric worshippers and devotees from all around the world come here to perform their rituals. It is believed that the energy from all 51 Shakti Peethas merges here during this time, allowing us to experience tremendous energy. Near the temple, there is a pond called Soubhagya Kund. Most tantric worshippers conduct their rituals here and later perform the parikrama, or circumambulation, around the temple. Maa Adi Shakthi is everywhere, she is the nature, so the believers of Maa never plucks any flowers, never cuts any trees or never do any farming work in these 3 days. Following the three-day period of the goddess's menstruation, the Nivritti ceremony is conducted. This ritual marks the end of her cycle and the reopening of the temple. The Nivritti ceremony takes place on the third day, and right after, the temple’s main door is reopened in the early morning. This allows devotees to enter the temple again and offer their prayers to the goddess Devotees then receive a special prasad called Rakta Bastra. These pieces of red cloth absorb the divine essence of the goddess during her menstrual period and are believed to carry her blessings. Keeping it at home or worshipping it can bring prosperity and help remove negative energy from the home. Apart from the religious rituals, the Ambubachi Mela is also a festival. Traditional music, dance, and local art forms make the atmosphere lively and show off Assam’s rich cultural heritage The mela also features a bustling marketplace where local artisans and vendors sell a variety of items, from handcrafted goods to traditional Assamese delicacies. For many, the Ambubachi Mela is not just a festival; it's a journey of faith and devotion. It’s a time when the spiritual and physical worlds come together, celebrating the deep connection between the Earth and the divine feminine energy.
