Aghora, or the Absence of Darkness, is a rare path chosen by very few people. These yogis live in the cremation grounds in India, seeking to utterly destroy the illusion of the world by bizarre austerities, unbelievable practices, and constant reminders of mortality. But this process involves great risks, and the cremation grounds are said to be haunted at night by Demons hungry for Fools; most people lose their mind before gaining the Ultimate Reality.
