Aghori (A Biographical Novel)

Ghor is that which frightens, which leads to fear. All the delusionary activities of the world, be it happiness and sorrow, old age or sickness, tension, pride over one’s body, or the fear of death, all are but ghor. But once an ascetic gains this knowledge that death is but an illusion and through practice rids himself of it, then the inner energy pushes him onto that divine path which, through Shakti’s grace, leads to the aghor form of Lord Shiv, the calmest, most natural, simple and welfare-granting form of Shiv.
