Cows, bulls, goats and wild dogs intermingle with the human throngs at the burning ghat. “Watch out for cow shit,” says our volunteer, helpfully pointing out a huge mound as we get close to the first funeral pyre. “Look, burning skull. No smell,” he states. We look at the burning skull. How could you not? “We use a special wood that means the body doesn’t stink as it burns. You know, like a chicken would.” My 18-year-old son nods at him sagely, as if this is an everyday conversation that you have while watching bodies on fire. The thing is, it is here.
