a sward reconstruction, a son who found a car reporting and that is our show for now. i'm clear, richardson and berlin, thank you so much for joining us. the long voyage through the ocean. another. how well was it costs? for a long time, they had to be humans on the journey. now the trenches have become very protective of whales until the results of the ocean conservation start september full. i'm dw the about on i see india is holy city. the use of hindus believe whoever dies here will be saved so

much for us. that's a celebration here i meet people who make a living from dying. lots of another young people you dreamed of studying. i'm leading a better life. it's not having to do this job for us. i mean, but honestly i'm pushed to my limits the but i also meet people with incredible strength. i'm never really afraid the and i learned that dying doesn't have to be a terrible thing. the problem should make peace that

the a few years ago i lost my mother. it took me quite some time to process or death. i was offering extremely sad. it said that here in this hospice in but honestly, death is approached very differently. it's known as the by one house of salvation. the only country is a priest year at about one. the begins

is rituals early in the morning the usually the priests would carry them out in private. an exception has been made for me to be present. while the applies wholly ash to a stone through the process, the stone becomes the symbol of a hymn. do god. yeah. but the people who come to us are seeking salvation guests believe that if they die and are honestly, they can escape the cycle of return and reverse. we accompany them by playing songs on some different basel die and water from the countries. so on. if i make an image that can you explain to me again, the main route woods of multi by on and why you have these woods? and i mean, is the unit up? how do i get people who come to us have 15 days to die? the only those seeking salivation should come here, so i know what should stay here for free accommodation. for months,

no minutes. the only i am here is salvation that he's actually on a most. can you help him much about anybody but some of the 15 days to die? to me that sounds almost stressful. like having a clock ticking for your final brands, but devout hindus don't seem bothered by it. the you are all attend rooms full sometimes. huh. for the system. yes. of course. sometimes all the rooms are occupied with some of september or october. all the rooms were really full. the yeah. hey, so this is the room. you don't have the cup. yes, exactly. this is that we have 2 beds from top to bottom,

one for the person seeking salvation, and one for the person accompanying them. sometimes more family members come up now, then we laugh mattresses on the floor. and what were your most hearted at their own? was the 18 but with the votes, that's the room only costs $0.20 a night. why is it so cheap? i mean, it sounds approaching that are missing. people basically stay here for free. we only charge $0.20. so that's not too much electricity is used for the heard that that'd be necessary and the low amount is also to remind them they shouldn't stay here with us. and definitely the room is really just meant for moving into salvation is should it be so the that the heck there for me. so, you know, kind of the, to me, it seems rather sparse, almost stereo,

the contents in india for many, it's the best thing to die right here in a completely unfamiliar environment without any comfort, some for the future. i'll meet another person whose final wish is to dine, but honestly it's an encounter that will touch me deeply. the core, devout hindus thought honestly, is a very special city. it's here that one of their principal deities shiva is said to reside the india, as long as the river also flows through here, the ganges for many hindus. it's the physical manifestation of the goddess congo. it's believed that the eating and again jesus can help wash away all

sins. the building this is to are said to be cured with just one sip of the holy water. the i'm body also believes in the power of the river for over 50 years. he's been growing on the ganges. i'm gonna say, noah. hello, how are you? yeah. how they're both very well and that's how i've come down here. what's your name? my name is ron bonnie, that i'm not modeling oliver. ron rom is a god. body stands for the monkey guard. the monkey room is an especially powerful god to

run by the is 73 years old. he spent his whole life in, but honestly he tells me that he owes all his energy and health to the ganges. come pick up here. you sometimes drink the water as well. me. he thought, oh, yes, of course. yes dick know, even now this one. now he's drinking the water. is the water divided under his water? you are totally water. what do you like? the studies have shown how polluted the ganges can be, and around us the water is so toxic that fish can barely survive. you though, the science seems to play are less important role than face the

i'm you know, got a person must have based in the ganges at least 3 times, like the tended. once off the bus, i'll be coming. park big about the 2nd time, the 2nd time off to the wedding. it's just the time after data is the date, the jess is ever present on the ganges sometimes even with corpses floating in the water, the would you like that to me? i don't know, but i do problems and things like that done with both to me and to chicago. just keep growing. i do believe that it's just a body. the soul has long since left it towards the middle. go after we die here, your bottle that snapped is unlikely phone to you. i money, i get the money but it isn't surprisingly silver thorn. for me i find it hard to separate the body from the essence of the deceased.

i visit the place where most bodies are cremated, environment see the money kind of got the smoke, the smell, and what i see, overwhelms me. the gas is visible everywhere. the there's no attempt to hide the burning bodies organs or charged limbs. the for this man, it's all part of everyday life. cremating corpses is patrick cozy,

chilled harvey's job. the a. status has been moved. i get a new put but my 33 years old now side when we 1st came here aged about 13, they cut the lead today. barnes may be 4 or 5 corpse as a year upon me body. i later it became more of them. they watched the dad and the guns you saw, you know, they looked very different tier back then, you know who not one of the simple did, but they're not. but i basically work all the time in the go. and if i don't do the job, who will let me take care of everything points of job money at the job and they did die knowing what otherwise job money and then they job related that it must be tough. the jacuzzi is a member of the dom cast, one of the lowest in indian society,

the earns about 2 and a half euros for a fire. it takes about 3 hours to burn the body. the calendar again, i do see that i froze. it's all routine and oh cool. no, it's normal for you. go out there high, we have your habits. yes, i'm used to, but we would, we still treat the dentist, you wouldn't being some, one of them would even talk to them and kind of name a we did. what do you the, the date, patrick goes, he explains to me on to be buried with dignity. during breaks. he gets into the ganges where the ashes of the distinct star scattered the

here he looks for valuables. sometimes he gets lucky as he has now finding a chain. sure. in the murky, polluted water, you can barely see where he is stepping. the i can put myself in this glass here. best to throw it away. but it's hard for me to comprehend the conditions. patrick cozy has to work under and i haven't mence respect for what he does. the

i wonder if he would prefer another job. nicholson to allow me that will. of course, we'd like to follow another profession to work here means a lot to me though my god gave me the opportunity of a new job and i would take it. otherwise i'll stay here and see why minute because he has 3 children. it's his wish for them not to have to one day work here at the money kind of car got i'll meet him again in a few days. then he'll tell me, use plans to create a better future for them. the at 6 am, i receive

a message from the hospice. they wanted me to come as quickly as possible. so gone and looked about one has been empty. i guess i'm just out of here, we just received a call from the owner saying that a person arrived last night from the admins. he wants to die right here in foot on a seat, not enough to stay on the on deadlines besides, they've asked if we want to come and talk to the family. so we're on our way there now, you know, until the end of the make up in the i have great respect for the chance to meet a dying person and their family. the some 20 family members are taking care of the elderly man. i am suddenly

uncertain if we should even be here. we are doing a movie about the best in that and i see and then is it okay if we talk to you, if you like, look how you would deal with a one situation? is that okay for your help with today? i'm a, i found a problem at all about the speed we're happy to share with people who may be don't know much about our religion and show them how we approach this difficult situation . the problem that i learned that the sick man is his father in law. his name is shree, low connect to body. he's 82 years old and can only breeze with the help of a ventilator multi. he can't see anymore.

everything is doc my brother, this person, place it on for us very with the he is really in a critical condition package that we can pull family quotes. are you happy that you are human, but honestly not see me here. not a very happy look very, very happy you called your peace last thing is always with us because of the simple fact that low, but we thank you for talking to us in this difficult time. i am here, you know, you came to us and the answer to that is really kind of you really kind of feel like this so much the,

the service is so far. this has been for me the most extreme situation. we have sound he's the media and the this family, naturally concerned for a family member who's about to die has done the less welcoming us into their circle . out of the bias shabby on dealing slips in the in, in kind of wants to show us how their culture works and how they deal with death. give the quote to us on send me an amazing with them toward indian the

i ask one of his son to set tundra to body why it was important enough for the whole family to travel to about honestly young. take you to live with daddy guides of somebody except the day when my father ties i them, i want to install a happy, you know, i want to have a family to be that jammed up until now. he's been stuck in the attendance cycle every but the pacific dining here in toronto. so you should find me frank, that's totally cool. be guy put a not me to ask you to going to go to when my mother was about to die of health. very, very sad. i feel like you people are sad, but also happy at the same time. is that right? i seen the ripped and it would sell it as soon as i was gonna make sense. got them on. i definitely do see on my s death as a celebration for us. it's one of the most important rituals like about

a marriage. we celebrate that is or leave so much behind you. so much pain open to the can him do is got it. talk about let being 8400000 different life forms to be on my on the phone as a human is to be blessed by golf. children off the left only as a human. can you a chief salvation be done with the product? the son just knew betterment the sort of the same model that if you missed the chart because you have to go through the entire cycle again because that i'll probably do little with that. i don't, but not in that you. when did you decide that he would come here to about and see, and how did you organize that? the whole family. and as i go to ask him the next question, it suddenly goes dark. and it's got to stay among his kind of slaves, a power outage here, which of course, isn't terrible because the ventilator for his father has now stopped in stands

for the 1st time the room grows restless. it seems as if death is become more real, more tangible for the family. the i suspect the family would prefer to be alone for the time being the on the banks of the ganges. i need the seller, ron miasca, whose family is lived in. but on a see for 7 generations the

g was so close to me, monday, kindly. ca, gods. and what kind of people do you need? um, do you mean sad people? do you mean people that i have p a that they are relates has passed away here in about and i see what kind of impression do you get from the people here. there's one gun. god forbid of id. i've seen many people who have just lost a loved one and come to my 2 shots as though it's often the case of the saddle. cried peter, the little comment of yeah. so if we cut them up we tied, you might have some struggle with losing their fault them of our life and let us know how the family members of in my love, it just doesn't matter. they, how can you come for these people? do you would try to give them some comforts to your food? 3, a t through talking. how do you do it? yeah. what us out on zillow, whatever they put it, i remember the people tell me about their problems. i explained to them the gold

has given each of us a new set number of days. people are always looking for money, your happiness. everything from birth and death is predestined by god. tell them there's no reason to cry. yeah. they can live happily in and peace is in mind. everyone has lost someone they loved at some point. oh yeah, no one has a multiple. yes everyone has to go some the a separate point. okay. might i add it? i never really agree. i add a semi i thought of. yeah. not once again, i'm made aware that death here isn't necessarily seen is something terrible. i ask him if he's afraid of dying himself. he doesn't live in my. yeah. it's always gotten to the i'm not afraid of death. there's no reason to worry, i'll be afraid mark, but one day i will try to draw the brace the best to make friends with that is what's on. even on those i level you know that the

evenings in but honestly every day a ceremony to honor the ganges is held on the river bank, the thousands of worshippers gather here. the spiritual significance of the city holds means of many can make a living here. the job is 9 years old. each day, her mother paints her up as the he knew the chief, the family,

including a 5 year old brother has been homeless for some time. the mazda of the, i need, you know, kind of what i mean. i don't have a husband. that's why we live here on the river bank and really came him mainly because of my heart condition. when i give you guys to an at least a little money off the line, you just would like to have a room, but we can't afford it. how did you get the idea of her walking around, dressed as a lot cheaper? not the, the lots of people suggested it to me, you know, they told me to have no husband and you need to how to operate action by simply your daughter could walk around us. chiva does not need about 500 or 600 yours for the operation of so that'd be so we're trying to get the money this way. for example, the, the

contract collects around 500 rupees in one day, a little over 5 years. and again, i feel bad about it, but i can't see any other way. once i have enough money for the operation, i'll stop sending her out one from one of them. what does your daughter say? she seems like a happy child that she sometimes complain that she understand what she's doing there. naples, i know she never complains who's got a, she does a lot for me yet. she always tells me, i live only a few lives. that's why she's collecting money from my operation. the

every afternoon follows the same routine, the after applying makeup con john mean goes with the tourist, hoping to bring home as much money as possible. i send me money and i will attach. so just gives me $0.50, but don't have that much of that and just give it to me now for the the stuff that the yeah the golf show. i think that's enough. no, i'm not taking that. take this $0.20. yeah. this over to the,

to the congo has collected just under for yours and know for a little food for her family, but not enough to save for the operation the, the, but i don't feel good about what i'm doing. i'm only doing it from my mother in white glove. people even call me back or last long. i always tell them i'm not the bigger on the day. our phone, big mamma them do you sometimes get in dangerous situations or situations that you don't like? what sounds does that sound good then that actually i'm never afraid. i'm only scared at the thought that my mother might die, but i don't want my mother to dine miles selection yet.

the admire cottrell strings and i find it terrible that this 9 year old has to deal with death. so early in life, the death and life in the by one, they're close neighbors. a man dies and right next to him, children play the, the alongside them. the family of 20 also needs to be taken care of the

on human the ok, the be great. honda got a guy that's life. it shows the young people come here when the doctor says that there's nothing more that can do well. no. finally, wishes to come to go to relax to us. we're thinking about one cuz i don't know. maybe i never die is here in toronto. see, can consider themselves lucky. i've been said go to the children of course don't understand all of this year, but they have the they don't know what's happening here. a good i oh, yeah. and they would say what would you done design a focus on monday. have you done? no. they came with the whole family is stop study by to me. so can, as many people come as they like, i'm here to say comes, are going to the other thing, get me a while at least 2 people should have company and the sick person available. in this case, it's 15220140, sometimes 10 or 15 family members come i that, that those can hear william. i never say now i am here. everyone is offered

a roof over there. had to be somewhere else with in iowa and most of the the, the dying are blessed. 3 times a day. park of the ritual includes drinking a drop of the ganges holy water. the, the the family sees mainly the good for the relative do up in the future to do, hey, is let me go to the bottom. ok. i used to come in if it comes had noticed that will

be no rebuff about it cuz he wasn't, even though i have there was so much pain. do you meet people then pause play upon and he was there was so much suffering. so many illnesses look at them as a task and drama. see millions, freedom for move outs within isn't that the ultimate freedom disease? will they see it? is this something we'll see? how much responsibility do you hear as a son right now in this situation that can lead to this will yet, but also well being a father is a big thing. i will have to worry no matter what i did, it could never be enough. but that could be, this could use, the lender wants to play a 9. and even if i gave my own skin for him, i'll never be able to replace my father. it's going to be like a middle retired. well, he's done for me, will never be. i'm so cousin and i'm john booth, or would you guys let me try to explain this to the children that a little it's an evening we pray and talk with each of us will be so out of them without the hunger. hannah were alive well known

to go the staff of every well it's a. c i noticed the family sadness that they will soon lose a loved one year at the same time. they're happy and grateful that they are fulfilled his last wish that he's able to die here in. but on, i see the or on the banks of the ganges touched cozy works late into the evening. bodies are burned here around the clock. it's a job. the 33 year old never really wanted

lots of another game before you tell, but i got a good man. i the problem i dream of studying leading a better life. i was having to do this job here for august. i have no proper education now. i've had many problems, so i tried different jobs, the full time delay got it, nothing really worked out for me. i'm not spending towards the end. he does not want his 3 children to one day have to risk their own health and the smoke more lucrative. where you near window, when my children have completed their education by google as engineers, for instance, they have a completely different future ahead of the people. they can choose other professions who by john, hurt to see the people who have ended up here, don't be money. it means that those who are blessed get better jobs nowadays. she

didn't know, i didn't know lots. i knew that obviously the government in that he wants his children to leave the dream that was denied to him. something either i can look at my dream is for them to get an education, so i'm going to become better people who don't have good circle of friends. if i can support their dreams with a lot of do something, i'll do everything i can to make it happen for the the, the, it's just after 5 am. it's on typically quiet in the by one. the

scientists amongst on demand just passed away. 2 minutes and i feel incredibly sorry for the family i to low because at the same time the media, i believe the family is glad it's over now since for bias on the and that he will hopefully find salvation here in for on i see you're losing that has. c c c c the the, the present given the,

i'm happy for him to push you to the everything for assembly. right? until the last moment to out of it. now, his family must let go near which getting they've brought him here to for honestly knowing this would be the last station of his life flashing and looking with the policy at the hold up. and then you'll be an investor instead of integrated daddy getting a hunch that the family will go through everything that's needed for the burning of the body. daniel then down carried the body from here to the banks that the guns use of it till they're going to be decorated with want and burned gully. that's on the investments. got a got the everything has to move quickly. now,

the soul is to be freed from the dead body while the men show to the physical weight, the women stay behind. they're not permitted to participate in the funeral ceremony . the start of the inside and now they're carrying him through the streets of around etc . for everyone to see, not even in spaces covered to meet it's very strange, of course is for everyone else around us, it's completely normal. and so tired of my relatives

carried the deceased man's possessions with them. his belongings will be given away . it would bring bad luck to keep them in the family after his death, the arrival at the banks of the ganges where the deceased is to be burned. in the moment of grief, fixed rituals provide support. before the funeral,

the eldest son of the family has his head shaved, a way to pay respect to his father. in the meantime, firewood for the funeral pyre needs to be organized. it costs about 100 euros, but the 400 kilos needed for the family places the relative onto the woods themselves. then finally, the fire is ignited. a man, the eldest son touches his father's go 3 times. a symbolic gesture, the school, the suppose to break open, releasing the soul each

time for the farewells, the i think of the family. what must be going through their minds during the fire for them a 13 day period of morning now begins the

i was invalid on a c for 3 weeks. it was the most intense shoot of my life. it was a period in which i felt sad. thoughtful and at the same time, happy as the shadow these all could call me. but now when i arrived, i thought to myself, how could anyone want to die here in this crowded, noisy place with a smell of burned bodies in the air. everywhere on give me some now i've at least to some extent developed an understanding of it. to mention, i've learned why people have a more positive approach to death and pulled this shoot as also change me personally that i've noticed that my fear of dealing with death has fallen away more and more in depth in a way is part of life. and i find that a really beautiful and reassuring thought isn't switching, i'm vaguely certain on all the way and then the down the

i just want to pursue what that's nice saw on 5, how are you going to buy your house? your job, your decision for your parent, the single, the money when generations clash for this you would, i don't remember because i wanted him to become a doctor. and in 30 minutes on the w ice coat. patrick, i need an expedition ventures on 2 places that no one has
