Human Pyramid

“In the lexicon of youth, which fate reserves For a bright manhood, there is no such word As - fail.”

(Sam Keen - American Philosopher and Writer)

 

Those young men formed a human pyramid in the holy waters of the Ganges in Varanasi (benaras).

It was at Panchaganga ghat which is one of the water-front sacred sites of the Eternel city.

As the name indicates this place is supposed to be the confluence of five rivers such as the Ganges, the Yamuna, the Saraswati, the Kirana and the Dhupapapa.

During summers (May-June) people come there early in the morning in order to find a kind of freshness.
