Vranasi - After the cremation of the first member of the family, the whole family went up on the stairs of the burning Ghat and asked to a group of young guys to shave them completely, head beard etc. This ritual it's part of the hinduism tradition. This girl, the daughter was incredibly sensitive and sweet, but still the approach to death it's completely understood and accepted from these people that they believe that death it's only another step of our lives as the life after death.
