The Nagas on the eve of the Shahi Snan dont sleep, they are like bridegrooms and the grooming would put a womans cosmetic adventures to shame .I was also awake as the devotees of the Nagas kept coming throughout the night, the idea is to take the dip with the Nagas , as the common man takes a dip after all the Akhadas finish their turn.
Most of the Nagas had bycotted the Snan because of the sniffer dogs that were let lose at Sevagram, as a security measure but the Nagas took offence and were really fuming..My Guru with his Guru were not bycotting the Dip.
I followed them till a certain limit and had to move away from them as I did not get the valid permit to enter the concourse of the Holy Tank at Trimbakeshwar.
