The coronation ceremony began auspiciously with the traditional ceremonial pooja, performed by Paramahamsa Nithyananda in the presence of thousands of his devotees, disciples, sadhus and mystics who had assembled at Prayag for the Maha Kumbha Mela celebrations. Following this, he received the traditional saffron shawl and kumkum offered by the other Mahamandaleshwars of Mahanirvani Peeth as a mark of their support and welcome to the newly coronated Mahamandaleshwar. Paramahamsa Nithyananda later led the grand coronation procession, much to the delight of devotees and onlookers.
