“Varanasi will confront you with a lot of things you won’t be confronted with anywhere else in the world. This uncomfortability is what spirituality is. A lot of people think that spirituality is the sunflowers, the sunset. These things are very beautiful, but when it all cracks, that’s the ‘real real’. When you watch a body burn, you think of everything in your life…your fate is ash, your fate is dirt, you will spend more time being dead than being whatever you are right now." – Dakota Wint
