Burning ghat sent on December 19, 2018 (12:32) by Xxand85xx. 0 comments, 637 views. [retina]

, 1/400 f/8.0, ISO 125, hand held. Varanasi, India.

“Il nome di rama è verita”. Il più famoso ghat (scalinata che porta al sacro giume gange) della cremazione a varanasi, in funzione 24 ore al giorno 7 giorni su 7. Vengono induisti da tutta l'india per poter cremare i propri cari qui sulle sponde del gange e si vede arrivare un corpo dopo l'altro trasportato su una lettiga di bambù dai parenti stessi. La cerimonia prevede che il corpo, avvolte in stoffe colorate, venga prima bagnato con le acque del fiume sacro per poi essere adagiato su una pira per poter essere cremato. I parenti dovranno comprare un quantitativo di legna tale da poter bruciare il corpo in circa 3 ore, al termine della quale le ossa non ancora carbonizzate completamente saranno gettate nel gange. Il parente più stretto sarà spogliato dei suoi abiti personali e rasato prima di poter incendiare la pira con il sacro fuoco di Shiva.
