Varanasi, India 2015

Varanasi is a chaotic mix of humanity and spirituality centered on the ghats along the Ganges river. The celebration of life occurs along side of the marking of death; the Hindu Brahman ceremonies of life celebration with their spectacular torch ceremonies accompanied with chanting/singing from the hindu writings; the cremation ceremonies, the washing of the body and the cremation fire; cleansing the body (spirit) in the Ganges.  We experienced spectacular sunsets and sunrises, and a great full moon view.  The ride and walk to the Ganges banks has to be experienced to appreciate the total life energy.
