A religious group in India eats their dead!

The Aghori Babas group if India see nothing big in it though. This is a Hindu sect that primarily resides in India. The Aghori people are known for their extreme nonconformities to the typical Hindu religious and social norms. Even the mainstream Indian population finds it grotesque and condemns the activity.

But what makes these people partake such a ritual? One of their primary beliefs hinges around the fact that spiritual enlightenment can only be realized when one is able to vanquish his/her fear of death. As such, when a member of their group passes away, the Aghori Babas will be awaiting them in open arms – ready to consume the corpse. Not only that, at times, the dead are set afloat the River Ganges in India.
This cannibalistic group will fish them out and feast on them like it was the most normal thing. Another source of dead bodies is the cremation grounds. The corpses may be consumed raw or cooked over open flame.
