Early morning on the Ghats of Banaras..
>> Wednesday, April 8, 2009
Just an amazing feeling to be on the Ghats of Banaras early morning at 4.30 Am, the "Ganga snan" people bathing pilgrims and daily bathers alike.
The business of vendors begins early.... its about the faith people have when they float a lamp with flowers in Ganga..
The Ganga Aarti...full of dedication .. , was watching this person, the duration of the aarti was more than 15 minutes.. this person performed with great dedication. I asked another regular there, was it that this person is new here so he has a display of dedication( My dirty mind), he answered.. these people take pride in performing the Ganga aarti…
There are people who come everyday to bathe in ganga.. a ritual performed every day early in the morning..
Whatever it was, was a pleasant experience.
