Return to Kumbakonam for Mahamagham
Every twelve years, the day when constellation Magha rises in the lunar month of Masi is celebrated in grandeur at Kumbakonam as Mahamagham. Completing his above mentioned travels, Swamigal returned to Kumbakonam in March, 1909. The government and local businesses had made special arrangements for the Mahamagham that year.
Special arrangements for staying and food were made at the mutt also for devotees and pilgrims. One of the key sights of that year's Mahamagham was the sight of the Tanjore royalty in procession, followed by our Swamigal on the elephant, on their way to the tank for holy dip.
