Inside Varanasi’s Death Hotels! 🇮🇳

Inside Varanasi’s Death Hotels! 🇮🇳

Yo guys, have you heard about the death hotels in Varanasi? In Varanasi, “death hotels” or “Mukti Bhavans” (salvation houses) provide a unique and poignant service: they offer lodging to people who believe they are in their final days and wish to pass away in the holy city. This practice is deeply rooted in the Hindu belief that dying in Varanasi, especially along the sacred Ganges River, can break the cycle of birth and rebirth (samsara), granting the soul Moksha, or liberation.These facilities are relatively spartan and are designed to cater specifically to the spiritual needs of the dying and their families. They operate under the principle that providing a dignified and peaceful end is a service to the soul. Stays are typically limited (often to a maximum of two weeks) to accommodate the high demand and the belief that if death does not occur within this period, it is not yet meant to be.The concept might seem morbid or unsettling from a Western perspective, but in the context of Hindu culture and spirituality, it is considered a deeply respectful and compassionate service. These death hotels are integral to Varanasi’s identity as a city where life, death, spirituality, and the quest for liberation intertwine. Enjoy!
