Il Gange, il fiume sacro dell'India, è adorato dagli Indù, che ritengono che effettuando il bagno nel fiume si possa ottenere il perdono dei peccati e un aiuto per raggiungere la salvezza. Le abluzioni mattutine e serali sono normalmente effettuate presso alcune strutture dedicate costituite da scalinate che terminano nel fiume, dette ghats. Molte persone compiono lunghi viaggi per immergere le ceneri della cremazione dei loro familiari nelle acque del Gange; si crede che questa immersione possa far salire l'anima al cielo. I cadaveri, prima della cremazione, vengono lavati, profumati, truccati e circondati da fiori, poi fotografati per i parenti e le immagini sono esposte (ve le risparmio) come foto-ricordo.?Gli induisti credono anche che la vita sia incompleta senza la balneazione nel Gange almeno una volta nella propria esistenza. Una buona parte delle famiglie indù tiene un flaconcino di acqua del Gange nella propria casa. Viene considerato prestigioso detenere l'acqua della Santa Ganga in casa, e in tal modo, se qualcuno sta morendo, sarà sempre in grado di bere la sua acqua. Anche dopo il funerale, gli indiani spesso immergono i corpi dei loro morti nel fiume, ritenendo così di purificarli dai loro peccati.
