Almost every city which is a major tourist attraction in India is divided into two; For example,

Jodhpur and Jodhpore. Jaipur and Jaypore. Though thats not the official name

anymore, one can hear and feel in the essence of the city a dichotomy , so established

by the locals and the tourists alike despite the

fact that one lives off another and one is clueless

without the other's guide.

Fragments. Embers parting from flames.

Remnants.

Imagine a whole stretch of this over you,

well over your head. It would always

keep you on your toes, you would feel

like a cleansed individual, righteous,

somewhere not on earth, elevated.

You'd always be burning from inside to

do something.

A cool burn.

Context: Memorials of women who comitted themselves to the practice of sati.

Now remove the context. Now look again. You'll find:

Hierarchy.

The allocation of space even after death.

Naivity in forms.

Presence.

Demarcations.

Groupings/ Divisions.

Connections.

From one consciouness to another.

You would want to place your hands on of these hands and pray pray pray that you get a glimpse

of one of these lives somehow.
