Lucknow,

22 Nov (HS): A historic moment for Indian culture in London was recorded when

the current Mayor of the London Borough of Harrow released the English version

of the book Mahakumbh, written by environmentalist and founder of

the Panchtatva Foundation, Shipra Pathak. This book establishes the divinity of

the Mahakumbh, its cultural continuity, and the unique nature of river-based

Indian philosophy on the world stage.

Speaking

on the occasion, the Mayor said, The book Mahakumbh introduces us to the

depths of the Indian Sanatan tradition. The clarity with which Shipra Pathak

has presented Indian river worship, Indian Sanatan philosophy in Parliament,

and environmental thinking is truly inspiring.

It

is noteworthy that Shipra Pathak was specially invited by the London Mayor's

Office to participate in the Prakriti Samvad. This honor not only

recognizes her environmental work but also symbolizes the global acceptance of

Indian thought. During the launch, more than 250 copies were dedicated to

British citizens and NRIs present, who expressed their eagerness to remain

connected to India's eternal culture.

Speaking

about the book's significance, Shipra Pathak said that the Maha Kumbh is not

just a religious event, but a direct manifestation of the collective

consciousness of millions of people. She explained, Through this book,

you will understand how millions of devotees, energized by the power of the

Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati, take a holy dip to the sound of 'Har Har

Mahadev,' and return to their homes without any discrimination.

She

further explained that her organization, Panchtatva, distributed millions of

bags and plates for environmental protection during the Mahakumbh, which gave a

major boost to the cleanliness and plastic-free campaign. At the end of the

ceremony, Shipra Pathak invited all guests to visit the Narmada, Gomti, and

other major rivers of the country when they visit India. This launch in London

was not only a book unveiling, but also an important milestone in the global

dissemination of Indian Sanatan culture and environmental awareness.
