Thank you for sharing this inspirational story of our ancient pilgrim ancestors, appreciate it. Rupkund is certainly a place worthy of a visit. I have added this place to my "List of places to visit in India at least once in this lifetime!" Kudos to the creative team of BBC New India. Best wishes and Comment from Athens, Greece 🙏🌻
I maybe Wrong: But given the scenario, it's possible that 1. Those people living nearby would belive that Submerging Bodies after Death in Lake would be a Path to Salvation or considered to a Sacred Ritual during their Pilgrimage. Or 2. Maybe an entire group was Crossing the Frozen lake in winter after returning from a Pilgrimage on their way back and Ice-sheet broke which caused everyone to Freeze to death collectively..
