quando se fala no rio ganges todo mundo (pelo menos eu) sempre pensei em varanasi. em varanasi eles cremam os mortos. mas o lugar mais propicio para se banhar no ganges eh em haridwar. haridwar fica a algumas centenas de km antes de varanasi e a agua eh consideravelmente mais limpa, mas o mais importante eh foi la q vishnu deixou cair alguma coisa... tornando o lugar muito propicio espiritualmente. eh tb mais organizado, eles desviam um canal do rio para facilitar as coisas.

quando eu cheguei la imediatamente mudei de ideia quanto a passar a noite na cidade. hahaha. dei uma olhada nas pessoas se banhando e fui para rishikesh. voltei 2 dias depois para acompanhar a cerimonia ao por do sol. teoricamente a cerimonia eh mesma q acontece em varanasi (e q eu nao tinha gostado), mas a daqui eu gostei. ela foi rapidinha menos de 10 minutos, tinha uns autofalantes tocando musica e numa parte com milhares cantando junto foi bem bonito. depois eles jogam uns barquinhos com petalas de flores e velas no rio. o unico problema eh q com o rio agitado os barquinhos afundavam em menos de 10 segundos.
