Gangasagar at Night...... A Pilgrimage
Most of the devotees spend the cold winter night in open spaces as the temporary accommodations provided by the administration for million people are not enough. Some of them take on rent from the local villagers. They mostly cook their on own food!
The Ganga Sagar Mela continues to throb with life, with the energy of millions of pilgrims. The pilgrimage may be extremely tough, but the pilgrims know that the visit will purify their souls. The visit fulfils their lifelong desire and often one can see tears of joy rolling down their cheeks. That is the magic of religion!
