WHAT BANARAS STANDS FOR!

Banaras or Kashi is a unique spiritual light where life and death, both are seen in their full fervour. Banaras’s spiritual heritage is built on the Trinity of ‘Shiva, Ganga and Death’. Banaras’ existential legacy is sustained by the joy of living the life fully with all its elements. The spiritual heritage and the existential legacy of the city complement each-other and that, in turn, sustains Banaras.

Banaras is both, सुखदा (Sukhada) and मोक्षदा (Mokshada), a place that gives happiness and the joy of living as well as the salvation in death, as defined in the literary works.
