Více o knize
The narrative provides a personal reflection on the cremation practices observed at a burning ghat in India, contrasting them with Christian burial traditions. It highlights the impersonal and commercial nature of the cremation process, emphasizing the low caste status of those who manage it. The description details the physical setting, including the structure by the river and the rituals performed, such as the shaving of the deceased and the pouring of sacred Ganges water, capturing the stark realities of death in this cultural context.
