Famous Mahakumbh sadhvi Harsha Richhariya steps away from ascetic life:Says, ‘It’s easy to question girl’s character, I’m not Sita to face agni-pariksha’

Harsha Richariya, who came into the limelight after adopting Sanatan Dharma during Mahakumbh, has now announced leaving the religious path. Harsha shared this information through a video released on Monday night. She said the story that began with Mahakumbh 2025 is now ending. In this one year, I have faced a lot of opposition. After Mauni Amavasya, I will leave this religious path and return to my previous profession. There, no one will question a girl’s character. I am not Maa Sita to go through the trial by fire. Now read exactly what Harsha Richariya said in the video… Harsha Richariya released a video on Instagram. She said – Jai Shri Ram, the story that started from Prayagraj Mahakumbh is now ending. In the last year, I faced a lot of opposition. This opposition started from Prayagraj. I thought that after Mahakumbh everything would end, but that did not happen. I tried to walk on the path of religion. I did not do anything wrong. Neither stole nor did any immoral act, nor did injustice to anyone. Still, whenever I tried to move forward on the path of religion, I was repeatedly stopped, and my morale was broken. People thought I was making crores by turning religion into a business. But that’s not true. I am drowning in debt. Among those who are earning crores of rupees by making religion a business today, I am drowning in debt. Before returning home, I was doing anchoring, and I was proud of my profession. I can proudly say that I was doing my job very well and was happy in it. I have faced many tests in the past year Harsha Richariya said – I was working more abroad than in the country and earning good money. But after coming here, I was left with only debt; nothing else remained. The saddest thing is that no one stands with me today. I am saying all this today because whatever I tried to do in the last one year was stopped. It was opposed and broken. The same happened to me at the Magh Mela, which left me extremely frustrated. While I did nothing that would warrant opposition against me. But perhaps in our country, it’s very easy to oppose a girl, break her morale, and question her character. I am not Mother Sita, who should give an agni pariksha (trial by fire). In the past year, I have taken all the tests that were required. Now it’s enough. This Mauni Amavasya, I will take a bath in the Magh Mela, and with that bath, I will put a full stop to the resolution I had taken to walk on the path of religion. I will go back to my old work. That work, which had no opposition, no character allegations. If any youth or any sister tells me that she wants to connect with religion, walk on the path of religion, I will only say this: stay connected with your family, worship in your home temple. Don’t follow anyone else beyond this. Who is Harsha Rijharia…?
