Banaras Quotes

Banaras is a tale of a city that has withstood the test of time, preserving its ancient culture, heritage, and spirituality while embracing modernity. It is a city that has inspired poets, scholars, and artists for centuries and continues to be a source of wonder and inspiration for visitors from all over the world.

Here religious feeling reigns supreme, and no sensual thought ever seems to assail these beauteous mingled forms. They come into unconscious contact with each other but only heed the river, the sun, and the splendor of the morning in a dream of ecstasy.

- Pierre Loti

Many people think they cannot have knowledge or understanding of God without reading books. But hearing is better than reading, and seeing is better than hearing. Hearing about Benares is different from reading about it; but seeing Benares is different from either hearing or reading.
