In December of 2016, I decided to visit Varanasi, India, In search of the Aghori Sadhus. The Aghori are infamous for doing all that is taboo to other hindus and people around the world, these rituals can include some cannibalistic acts and other unusual ceremonies. After learning more about them, I decided to go and see them for my own eyes. This is some of that experience.
