I Spent The Day With An AGHORI in VARANASI!

Varanasi (वाराणसी), also known as Benaras, is the most holy of India's holy cities. It's a place made famous here on YouTube and in the media due to the Aghori, a sect of ascetic Shaivite sadhus who practice a unique and extreme form of Hinduism. They're known for their strange and unconventional practices such as staying on cremation grounds, covering themselves with the ashes, using human skulls as utensils, and cannibalism. Any videos you see on here will focus in on these images - I'm here to speak to real people and show you the truth, not the sensationalist lies. I'll show you the real Varansi and the real Aghori people - It won't be what you expect! ---------------------------------------------- The great people I met, who taught me so much about the Varanasi and the Aghori: Nandan Bharat (+91-9936180896 whatsapp / https://pragyabodh.com) Rajan Upadhyay (+91-9651031426 whatsapp / https://www.facebook.com/karunendra.upadhyay) I strongly recommend you get in touch with these guys if you're coming to Varanasi and want some really interesting tours beyond just tourist sights. ---------------------------------------------- 🔔 Subscribe and hit notify for regular new videos: https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisKermis ---------------------------------------------- 🔗 Want to see more from India?
