From elephants getting a ride in a tractor to wild festivals, here are the Craziest photos taken in India
7. Portable Elephants
Elephants play an important role in Hindu mythology! One of the most recognizable dieties in this religion is certainly Lord Ganesha, who takes the role as the lord of wisdom, with the head of an elephant. This symbol of intellect, and wisdom is getting a quick lift via tractor and this is something you might only see in india!
6. Public Transportation
Although donkeys like we mentioned earlier, aren’t allowed to take the bus, cows are pretty much allowed to go pretty much anywhere people are allowed to in india! Cow slaughter in india is banned, so this cow can feel safe that this bus isn’t going to the slaughterhouse. After the cow walks in, the citizen will feel as though it’s been blessed with its presence
5. Cow Urine Therapy
So instead of eating the cow, people in India might just drink their urine. Although it was an ancient practice, it became more popular in recent years and some people swear by it’s medicinal properties. They feel as though it has purifying properties to it and any toxins that were consumed previously will be cleansed. The person in this photo claims he was suffering from diabetes until be began this treatment. No other modern day medicine would make a mark on his disability. As he noticed the cow urinating, he runs over there with a cup to collect the medicine. What do you think about this? Going a little too far or wht?
4. Sewer Cleaner
Tough job but someone’s got to do it! Some people get paid pretty well for doing this depending what country you're in. This man here in India is in one of the worst places to do one of the worst jobs. First of all, this wouldn’t be your job if you’re claustrophobic. These people are paid to jump into sewage holes and scrape up raw waste then put it in a bucket. We can only hope a shower could get rid of this smell. And if you’re in New York, you might have to deal with alligators.
3. What a Dog!
We told you before they might have some crazy weddings in india and you gotta see the photos to believe it. This photo here shows a woman in India, marrying a stray dog in a ceremonial practice. She’s a little worried he might run astray but with good reason. This teenager in India was advised by religious elders to marry a stray dog. In order to ward off evil spells that were put on her, this is what she was supposed to do. Once she’s divorced, she’s expected to have happy marriage with the next man she has a relationship with.
2. Cow Wedding
Who said people were the only ones who could have extravagant weddings? A bull and a cow had been in a serious relationship for quite sometime and decided to finally get married. A lavish wedding with more than 5000 guests was held supposedly to prevent natural disasters and save the harvest. Not really sure I see the ties between animal marriages and natural disasters but I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade. Since cows are sacred in India, this ritual spared no expense around 15000 dollars to be exact.
Craziest Festival of All
A shocking festival takes place in India which involves self flagulation among the Shiite Sect of muslims here. We can’t show you all the photos because it gets a little too out of control. In order to mourn the death of one of their martyrs, they might whip themselves with knives attached to chains. This shocking image seems to show a man who’s getting ready to gouge out his own eyeball with a large knife. Thousands of people participate in this and many are rushed to the hospital for going a little overboard!
