They are the only surviving sect derived from the kapalika tradition, a Tantric, non-Puranic form of Shaivism which originated in Medieval India between the 7th and 8th century CE. Similarly to their predecessors, Aghoris usually engage in post-mortem rituals, often dwell in charnel grounds, smear cremation ashes on their bodies and use bones from human corpses for crafting kapala (skull cups which Shiva and other Hindu deities are often iconically depicted holding or using) and jewellery. Their practices are sometimes considered contradictory to orthodox Hinduism. Many Aghori gurus command great reverence from rural populations and are widely referred to in medieval and modern works of Indian literature, as they are supposed to possess healing powers gained through their intensely eremitic rites and practices of renunciation and tapasya." border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="564" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaiV1QjEdvsEB3UETexLjUsLufAGRb616j3vttxRW7YOR7EQnwartoLjx2CRY9h6Dr2-HM65pK2cSx3FTlv4q0HlOSHjPhNii0h3QujeGZ_i0JikkIzph3ogzTRTGiMyqoUwFS2oIqGGZhtv2_oMfuqWNV8SGF-2pI_7d9njqoA6Vx5BzEq8Jo9xNw/s16000/Some%20visuals%20from%20Varanasi%20city%20of%20India%20-%20Kashi%20-%20Benaras%20-%20Sadhus%20-%20Faith%20-%20Aarti%20-%20Ghats%20-%20Boats-1-2.jpg" style="border: 0px; height: inherit; max-width: 100%;" title="Varanasi Travel Guide 2026: Ghats, Ganga Aarti, Itinerary, Hotels &amp; Cost" /></span></a></span></h1><h1 data-end="4858" data-section-id="s32oty" data-start="4829" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;">💡 Travel Tips for Varanasi</span></h1> <ul data-end="5040" data-start="4860"> <li data-end="4899" data-section-id="52rk0o" data-start="4860" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> Start early for sunrise experiences </span></li> <li data-end="4934" data-section-id="13rtjuo" data-start="4900" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> Expect crowds and narrow lanes </span></li> <li data-end="4964" data-section-id="khdsvy" data-start="4935" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> Wear comfortable footwear </span></li> <li data-end="5000" data-section-id="9ymx15" data-start="4965" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> Be mindful while visiting ghats </span></li> <li data-end="5040" data-section-id="16pl5es" data-start="5001" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"> Avoid falling for aggressive guides </span></li> </ul> <hr data-end="5045" data-start="5042" style="text-align: justify;" /> <h1 data-end="5068" data-section-id="wydy78" data-start="5047" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBjF0Jet9uKlsxbpkREaRj62Uhc8kCTJS3azZXzCcy0rEGR5zlukB-ZXzDUftUNTBV86VZsX3YZDrMeIvEHdqIq9z9tcRt4P7v3z72Wo52zx9--8CRe7WA5mse1Shy5e6znagYlbN2Kc31lAzjI5hwIwHXJwZVfJ8DpDzZ5Ow-RSZEiKga3Ees5UrA/s750/Some%20visuals%20from%20Varanasi%20city%20of%20India%20-%20Kashi%20-%20Benaras%20-%20Sadhus%20-%20Faith%20-%20Aarti%20-%20Ghats%20-%20Boats-7.jpg" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #729c0b; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; outline: 0px; text-decoration-line: none;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: x-large;"><img alt="It's the most common sight in most of the Indian cities but Varanasi is even special.
