CarrYing a Body to the Cremation Ghat in Varanasi

VARANASI, INDIA - OCTOBER 26, 2017: Relatives of a deceased man carry his body to Manikarnika Ghat ready to be dipped into Ganga River for an act of purification. Manikarnika Ghat is one of the holiest among the sacred riverfronts (ghats), alongside the river Ganga. It is believed that a dead human's soul finds salvation (moksha), when cremated here. Varanasi or Banaras is a city in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh dating to the 11th century B.C. Regarded as the spiritual capital of India, the city draws Hindu pilgrims who bathe in the Ganges River's sacred waters and perform funeral rites. Along the city's winding streets are some 2,000 temples, including Kashi Vishwanath, the "Golden Temple," dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva.
