The holy city of
Varanasi is situated on the banks of Ganga. Its name
has been derived from the two steams flowing through
it namely, Varuna and Assi. Pilgrims to the holy
land, follow the age-old tradition of bathing and
performing puja at the ghats(A ghat is a series of
well-paved steps that lead to the water). For
centuries, the Hindus considered it very auspicious
to bathe at the ghats of Varanasi. Everyday at dawn
thousands of pilgrims can be seen offering
salutations to the Sun God in waist-deep water,
secure in their conviction that the muddy waters of
the Ganges will wash away all the accumulated sins
of their life. The oil lamps (diyas) and flowers set
afloat on the river at dusk make a fascinating
sight. |
