We force our way as best we can through a colourful crowd, surprised to see a few Westerners lost in these parts. The women bathe and wash together, alone or next to the men of the family. The water clings to their saris, highlighting the grace and beauty of the multicoloured figures reflected in the waves. A few ablutions, one or two sips of water, a few chanted prayers, and that's almost all there is to it. Water here is a deity. Each person offers their being to it.

Never mind that the river carries rubbish and debris, that everyone does their washing and their ablutions in it! One must plunge in, splash oneself and drink this \u00abnectar of immortality\u00bb. And immortality in India is not up for debate. Hindus know well that, sooner or later, in this life or another, they will achieve osmosis between their soul and the divine. Ceaselessly renewed births and deaths are our lot, all of us. And in this game, every being has eternity before them to win!

Baneshwar is at once a sacred place, a meeting place and a gigantic market. In this unusual bric-a-brac, there's something for everyone: tools for working the land, kitchen utensils, kitschy knick-knacks or icons from the Hindu pantheon... Dressed in their brightly coloured saris and jewellery, the women go in groups to visit the stalls. The men sell, buy or barter. They wear simple white clothes, a symbol of simplicity and modesty.
