The Aghoris are a small sect of Hindu ascetics known for their unconventional practices and beliefs. They primarily worship Lord Shiva and seek to attain spiritual enlightenment through extreme rituals, which often include meditation in cremation grounds and the use of human skulls as bowls. Their philosophy emphasizes the acceptance of all aspects of life, including death and decay. Aghoris challenge societal norms and taboos, believing that true liberation comes from transcending the dualities of purity and impurity. They often engage in practices that shock mainstream society, such as consuming ritualistic offerings that may include meat and alcohol, to demonstrate their rejection of conventional values.
