Appreciation for India’s Spiritual and Cultural Heritage
Another visitor, Inga Murullarim, called Maha Kumbh “one of the world’s biggest pilgrimages” and was in awe of the arrangements.

Inga also expressed her admiration for India’s temples and spiritual energy.

Strengthening India-Estonia Ties Through Spiritual Bond
Speaking about India-Estonia relations, Inga highlighted how spirituality has strengthened the bond between the two nations.
“A year ago, we opened a Shiva temple in Estonia, and both Estonian and Hindu communities came together to celebrate this. Hundreds of people worked to make it happen, creating a strong cultural and spiritual bond between the two nations,” she shared.
