Dinesh Swaroop Brahmachari exemplifies this tradition, dedicating his life to spiritual pursuits and education.

In the heart of the Maha Kumbh celebrations, the age-old tradition of 'Kalpvas' commenced on Paush Purnima. This sacred practice sees thousands of devotees immerse themselves in the spiritual ambiance at the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers.

A standout figure among the Kalpvasis is Dinesh Swaroop Brahmachari. Hailing from Mahoba, Uttar Pradesh, Brahmachari has dedicated 41 years to this spiritual endeavor. After losing his father, he chose a path of renunciation over a teaching career, spending his life in spiritual devotion and community service. His daily routine is marked by strict discipline, rising early, performing rituals, and aiding others.

Not just a spiritual sage, Brahmachari contributes significantly to society by providing education to economically weaker sections. His camp in Prayagraj serves as an educational hub, housing resources for Provincial Civil Service exam preparation. He crafts concise, effective study materials, aiding numerous students in securing government jobs, embodying the essence of giving and enlightenment at Maha Kumbh.
