Burning Ghat











Visiting the burning ghats is obviously a must, not as a tourist, but as a reflection of our own humanity. Watching the bodies as they burn can become a powerful meditation on one's mortality; however for myself, I was almost immediately drawn into a deep prayer/trance where I was connecting with all the shifting energies and spirits as they navigate their way back home.
Please note: I was given permission to take some photos from a distance, but normally all photos are strictly prohibited.
