Sitting by the banks of the sacred river Ganga, they immersed themselves in the ritual of bathing, their clothes clinging to their bodies, drenched in the holy waters, and wearing their sacred threads. Offering their thoughts to the guidance of their elders, they placed the ashes into the flowing water, symbolizing their acceptance of life's cynical nature.
Every ripple in the water seemed to carry the weight of countless stories and the enduring faith in reincarnation. The water gently caressed their wet garments reflecting their unwavering hope that through these rituals, their fore-elders would attain salvation, breaking free from the perpetual cycle of birth and death.
