00:00In Tantra and Aghor traditions, some of the most powerful Tantric rituals are performed in cremation grounds.
00:07To most people, a shamshan is a place of fear, silence and death.
00:13But in Tantra and Aghor, it is something else entirely.
00:17What no one understands is that the shamshan is the place where illusions end.
00:23Name, status, ego, wealth, identity, everything dissolves into ash.
00:30And that is exactly why many Tantric practitioners go there.
00:34Because the shamshan is believed to be a thin boundary between the physical and the subtle worlds.
00:40Many fierce forms of the deities like Kali, Shiva, Bhairav are said to dwell in these liminal spaces.
00:48For a sadhaq, meditating there is not about darkness or fear.
00:52It is about confronting the ultimate truth of existence.
00:57Where fear disappears and ego dissolves.
01:02Ultimately, the seeker comes face to face with the reality itself.
01:09And that is why.
