Some Aghori practitioners are believed to consume human remains in ritualistic cannibalism, aiming to transcend societal taboos and achieve spiritual enlightenment.
Aghoris consume intoxicants like marijuana, alcohol, and hallucinogens to detach from physical senses and reach higher spiritual states.
Some Aghoris are associated with blood sacrifices, including animal or darker rituals, symbolizing ego destruction and the pursuit of liberation.
They use corpses in rituals, meditating in cremation grounds, with some controversial reports suggesting acts of necrophilia, though not universally accepted.
Aghoris reject societal norms, choose isolation, with their disregard for cleanliness, order, and morality often seen as harmful to themselves and society.
Aghoris engage in extreme ascetic practices to transcend pain and ego, though these rituals can lead to serious health consequences.
