Ganga aarti . As evening descends on the holy city of Varanasi, hordes of people make their way to Dashaswamedh Ghat on the Ganga river for the unique and enchanting Ganga Aarti. Several priests perform this ritual facing the river. The collective chanting, the lamps, the river side and the priests with lamps make it a unique experience. #ganga #varanasi #varanasidiaries #india #banaras

When you have no one to talk, you talk to yourself.
About 22% of the population in India live below the poverty line. Mostly on the streets, below the bridges or sometimes in small huts.
Take a train journey in India and your trip is complete. Its here one can see almost all segments of the Indian population.
Vendors selling food, snacks, magazines etc to kids who beg in the trains. Blind people walking & singing or playing any musical instruments.
Truly, India is incredible!!
An eternal relation that comes with nothing but pure heart. Image taken on one of the ghats of Varanasi, India in December 2016.

Dhamek Stupa - Sarnath
#dhamekstupa #Sarnath #varanasiindia #varanasidiaries #sonyalpha6000 #bhudha
Dhamek Stupa (also spelled Dhamekh and Dhamekha) is a massive stupa located at the archaeological site of Sarnath in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. Dhamek Stupa marks the precise location where the Buddha preached his first discourse to his first five disciples (Kaundinya, Assaji, Bhaddiya, Vappa and Mahanama), and where all five eventually became fully liberated.
Dhamek Stupa is the most massive structure in Sarnath. In its current shape, the stupa is a solid cylinder of bricks and stone reaching a height of 43.6 meters and having a diameter of 28 meters. The basement seems to have survived from Ashoka's structure, while the stone facing displays delicate floral carvings characteristic of the Gupta era. The wall is covered with exquisitely carved figures of humans and birds, as well as inscriptions in Brahmi script.[6] The stupa was enlarged on six occasions but the upper part is still unfinished. While visiting Sarnath in 640 CE, Xuanzang recorded that the colony had over 1,500 priests and the main stupa was nearly 300 feet (91 m) high.
An Ashoka pillar with an edict engraved on it stands near the site.

On the Varanasi's ghats, along the river Gange, it's where I took the best photos of my trip in India. The colour of the Hindu gods exploded to my face when I was just walking around completely lost in my thoughts. It was like entering in deep intimacy with the locals and their normal activities of their personal life: in this case, it was about yoga exercising. January 2007
