Kashi..luminous ...always

The city is a fascination for many..

I find it more interesting than just living in Kashi...

An evening at the ghats,

looking at the endless ghats..

and the steep steps leading to in-lanes


 Got a wonderful experience today..

was stressful after a long hot day

and the decision to walk on the ghats in the

evening got me some new exposures of the city
 started my walk at Dashashwamed Ghat today,

moved further and saw a scene of feeding the destitute and poor people by a family near the Mir Ghat

just proceeded further, reached Manikarnika Ghat...

as usual, bodies merge with the nature back in the form of ashes

Manikarnika kund still stands as the witness of time,

Ratneshwar Temple, stands ahead with sign

of the latest lightening effect.

two small side elevations broken and fell down

as the water level is pretty low,

you can still view the Shivlinga inside



 Further ahead, the Panchaganga Ghat,

Aarti is just going on in the riverside,

the chanting and the music take your mind a height of

meditation as it light your heavy thoughts down
Kashi is an eternal city,

it needs to be felt at your heart

and the heard through the inner mind....
