A place where people went to die and one where they went in hope of a cure are two very close theories, especially if the sick ones died... ;)

Then there's this thought, somewhere between the two!

There is a subtle difference at Varansi , the dying don't go to be healed but to die there . A hospice rather than a hospital although there is no hospice as such just lots of rooms for hire for the dier .
