    A Hindu man has his head tonsured on the banks of the river Ganges in Kolkata, India, to pray for the peace and happiness of the departed soul. Cutting your hair or shaving your head is a symbolic offering to show your grief after the death of an elderly family member. You can spend hours on the Ghats searching for the meaning of life.
