Aghoris

Aghoris are a small, ascetic sect within Hinduism, known for their radical spiritual practices aimed at transcending dualities like purity and impurity. They often live on cremation grounds, use human ashes in rituals, and seek to confront mortality and materialism. Rooted in devotion to Lord Shiva, Aghoris pursue spiritual enlightenment through extreme discipline, meditation, and unconventional rituals, challenging societal norms to attain a higher state of consciousness. Their practices symbolize unity with all life, emphasizing the impermanence of the physical body and the importance of spiritual transformation.
