Tour to Dev Diwali in Varanasi India
Varanasi is a city in
the Indian state of UP ( Uttar Pradesh) dating to the 11th century B.C. Popular
as the spiritual capital of India, the
city draws Hindu pilgrims who bathe in the Ganges River’s sacred waters and
perform funeral rites. Along the city's winding streets are some 2,000 temples,
including Kashi Vishwanath, the “Golden Temple,” dedicated to the Hindu god
Shiva.
The Dev Deepavali is
the festival of Kartik months at the day of Poornima special celebration in Varanasi,
India.
Varanasi is best places for spiritual seekers. Dev
Deepawali means God’s Festival of Light.
Varanasi, lovingly
dubbed the city of Shiva, Varanasi linked you to Hindu rituals, delving into this
teeming and tortuous; It is acknowledging not understanding everything but
getting to let go of it to simply welcome what the men and the gods have to
offer us.
In the heart of a
landmark of artists and musicians, secret of a well guarded place where the
emulation of the group brings me into endless dreamlike daydreams. On the
terrace, the sounds of tablas, zithers and other Jew mingle with the
psychedelic drawings of frescoes covering the walls. Observe the Ganges, both
theatre and witness to the mighty fervor of the Hindus. On the opposite shore,
the nudity of the land gives relief to the inextricable lassis of the historic
city and reinforces the diffuse feeling of a population every day more
numerous.
Varanasi - At dawn, under a light
still soft and caressing, the ghats-these steps descending to the Ganges-, give
body on kilometers to the cycle of life: here, a wet sari reveals the lewd
forms of a woman taking her ritual bath while, with her hands clasped towards
the star, she addresses her prayers; There, men in white Longhi beat the linen
on the flat stones; Again, children play kites while their elders are playing
cricket.
Hindus who came to die
in Varanasi to reach the Moshka. Impressive stocks of
wood up on the cremation ghat, waiting to be weighed to create a pyre. The
amount of wood used depends on the income of the family, the sandalwood
remaining the most expensive. Now and for a lower cost, an electric oven is
also available. It is not unusual to cross a funeral procession at the turn of
an alley, the draped stretcher of warmly colored linens before being plunged
into the purifying waters of the Ganges and deposited on the pyre. Thus, they
are thousands each year to undertake the journey so far, to live or to die, but
especially to pray.
This city remains a
hymn to life, in the noisy morning rumor as in the coolness of Twilight. Its
narrow and crowded lanes, keeping between their stones a relative freshness,
smell good spices and milk and invite to the wandering without purpose. Sometimes too narrow to let a man pass when a
huge bull nonchalantly ruminates in the middle, careless of the chaos he feeds.
Taking advantage of a
spare street space, we take the time to taste my buttermilk,. When the Sun takes its
bow, darting its last rosy rays over the tumultuous waters of the river,
hundreds of small lights dance on the water. Cradle of the wishes and wishes of
the pilgrims, the baskets of leaves, flowers and flame, carry with them their
secrets ... The songs of the Pujas resonate and the scent of the incense mingle
with the heady scent of jasmine, to compete to give at the moment an
overwhelming solemnity.
Fascinated by the
Hindu religion, this sacred city carries every day a little more in a world
populated by gods and legends, where each of the daily gestures are carried by
a cosmic breath of indescribable power. At the ends of life and death, Varanasi
and his secular rituals make me live some of the most beautiful moments of my
journey ... A city with magnetic appeal and charms captivating.
