Almost every major religion breeds ascetics; wandering monks who have renounced all earthly possessions, dedicating their lives to the pursuit of spiritual liberation.Their reality is dictated only by the mind, not material objects. Even death is not a fearsome concept, but a passing from the world of illusion. ‘Beyond’ captures the essence of Varanasi and Aghoris and delivers a quality combination of breathtaking cinematography, a real-life account of these wandering monks and the philosophy that guides them.
