New Delhi, June 27. Nearly half a million pilgrims from all over India will plunge into the sacred waters of the lake at Kurukshetra, 90 miles north of Delhi, to cleanse themselves of their sins during the eclipse of the sun on Wednesday.

At 6.26 p.m. on that day, as the eclipse be- comes visible, the milling multitudes assembled an the dusty banks of the three-quarter mile long artificial lake will wade waist deep into the waters chanting sacred words and raising their cupped hands in prayer that the sun may overcome the demon god "Rahu", who is "swallowing" him and restore his light to the earth again.
