I make my way to Pune... No, first to Varanasi.
Do you know about Varanasi?
No.
Okay, dude, look at a travel book.
Varanasi, aka Very Nasty, is the... Oh, no.
a place in india where you go and if you die there then you're not reborn into karma so you're you're instantly what they call like enlightened you don't have to be reborn as a human so imagine
the number of people coming there to die.
And that is, you look it up in guidebooks, I had no idea what I was walking into.
So you see there people at death's door, you see their bodies being cremated, you see them being put into the Ganges.
I think there's two types of people that don't need to be cremated, sadhus, like holy men,
And pregnant women, because the babies are pure or something.
Everybody else, you know, they do this burning.
They've kept the fire alight for thousands of years, they claim, right?
Yeah.
It is like from the funeral pyre and they bring it over.
So it was kind of like shocking, right?
I mean, I had been all around the world.
I'd been in slums.
This was just a culture that had existed for thousands of years.
I was totally unaware of.
