Varanasi is a place of every kind, it can be traffic heavy by day and dog loud by night. It is a place of chaos and order manifesting itself in the city of cars, pharmaceuticals and technology along with a medieval religious practices. For which people bring food products to use them by the Linga-yoni, super simplified for ‘vagina’, in belief of improving fertility. Around the areas of open air crematoriums air linger particularly sweet. Not so long time ago those who poor came here to die in waters of Ganges without being cremated. Today it is almost impossible to see a floating body of a common person in the river anymore. However as one man said “for good karma” Sadhus aren’t being cremated, but being put to Ganges to rot.
