Manikarnika Ghat is one of the most significant and revered ghats in Varanasi, known for its deep spiritual importance and connection to life, death, and the afterlife. Located along the banks of the River Ganga, this ghat is primarily known as the "cremation ghat," where the last rites of the deceased are performed. It is believed that those who are cremated at Manikarnika Ghat attain moksha (liberation from the cycle of birth and death) and are blessed to be free from the cycle of reincarnation.
The ghat has a profound spiritual energy, where the ongoing cremation rituals symbolize the transient nature of life and the eternal journey of the soul. The sight of fire, chanting, and ritualistic offerings create a powerful and deeply reflective atmosphere. Pilgrims from across India and the world visit Manikarnika Ghat to witness these rituals, offering prayers and connecting with the sacred significance of this ancient site.
