the train is rushing by and on the hill you can see the Sati Temples.
Sati- wife of Shiva became a sati ( honorouble woman) by destroying herself by fire.

Although banned a century ago, occasionally sati is still performed.
The woman climbes on to the funeralpyre of her husband and destroys herself by fire.
