You’ve never seen overcrowded such as this!

Those are Hindu devotees traveling in an obviously overcrowded passenger train last July 22, 2009. The people came from a holy dip and prayer offering in the waters of Brahma Sarovar, a sacred pond, during the solar eclipse in the northern Indian city of Kurukshetra.

Thousands of people gathered for a dip in the Ganges because they believe that it is an act that will lead them to salvation from th cycle of life and death.
