Life in Varanasi
Cycle rickshaw in Varanasi
The muscular rickshaw puller of Varanasi
Sai Krishna ,the lovable kid in the neighborhood where we stayed in Varanasi
A busy street in varanasi
The maddhwa priest who performs the obsequies ceremony for the departed ones on the banks of the Ganges
The side-streets skirting the river-front of the Ganga where people live in ancestral houses and live off the mighty river and the faith of the pilgrims
The senior Madhwa priest who specialises in the ritual ceremony of the ashes immersion of the dead
An ancient house in the side-streets fanning out from the Ganga river-front
The math (religious seat) where the priests perform the ritualistic ceremonies and live as well
A woman has just taken the purificatory bath in the Ganga and is walking back to the temple in the side-street
A woman is climbing the steps of the river steps after the ritual bath in the Ganga
An ancestral house in the side-streets of the Ganga promenade
