Manikarnika Burning Ghat
瓦拉那西 恆河火葬儀式

 

First time being so closed to death in India,

I have realized that everything is meaningless in front of death.

 

Dead bodies have been wrapped in white cover (men) or yellow/ red cover (women),

then carried by stretchers by the priests.

 

The upper side of the burning ground usually is reserved for priest or high castes,

the 2nd layer one is for the rich, the lower ground is for the homeless or the poor.

 

All the ashes will head to same place - The Ganges River, after all the rituals completed.

 

No matter how rich you are, carried what kinds of positions, how famous you are,

all the Hindu would wish to come to Varanasi after one’s journey comes to an end.

And they all are buried in the same mother river under the bless of Lord Shiva.

 

Sooner or later we all will die,

it’s only the matter of how you treat yourself & live to the fullest in this journey.

 

In the preschool age, we follow whatever parents say.

In adolescence, we follow our fellows. 

In the post school age, we listen to what our boss direction.

 

Besides listening to your parents, teachers, fellows,

now it's time to listen to your intuition, your heart, and your mind.

 

Somehow we become a part of company property and forget who we are and what we want.

 

We work, we gain, so we should enjoy what we gain!

 

Life is too short to live under someone’s expectations.

 

We only have 1 decade from 20 to 30!
