_57A3904.jpg
One of many murals that adorn the building in Varanasi along the Ganges River. This Aghori sadhu, is ascetic sect of Hinduism. It is also not uncommon to see an Aghori with a bowl fashioned from a human skull, called a kapala, which they will use either as a drinking vessel for liquor, a dish for food, or as a begging bowl.
