Samenvatting

The Aghori have been known as the most radical ascetics in India: living naked on the cremation grounds, meditating on corpses, engaging in cannibalism and coprophagy, and consuming intoxicants out of human skulls. This book explores the dynamics of pollution, death, and healing in Aghor medicine. It examines a range of Aghor therapies.
