Kumbh Mela is a sacred festival that only happens once every twelve years, which is celebrated by millions of Hindu pilgrims living in India. It has been noted to be one of the largest and most peaceful gatherings in human history where Indians who practice Hinduism migrate to the Ganges River to wash off their sins to be purified. The two videos that were to be watched were very different from each other, but showed the difference between the insider and outsider perspective very well. In the promotional video made by the Indian government for the Kumbh Mela festival, we hear lively music and see a lot of celebration only surrounding the Ganges River. From an insider’s perspective, we can see that the Kumbh Mela festival would attract Indians to bathe in the Ganges River to be purified of their sins so that they can live life as a new person. The Indians in the promotional video were smiling and you could tell that this was a sacred ritual for them. On the other hand, the documentary with Diego Bunel, shows the whole Kumbh Mela festival from an outsider’s perspective, because it was explaining what the Hindus believe in and why they were practicing their traditions. There were a couple of times were Diego and his film crew were told not to film and he was told that outsider’s were not allowed to witness the shearing of the hair on the heads during the naga sadhu preparation. We can see that Diego proceeded to try and peer over the fences to see what was happening even when he was getting pushed from the fence that was blocking the ceremony. Diego wanted to know what was happening and why they were doing it. Diego wanted to know more about Hinduism traditions and asked questions that got the viewer interested about the religion.
