A sight peculiar
to India and Hinduism is that of saffron-clad hermits
with matted locks who often travel from one holy place
to another with scarcely a possession in the world.
Just look around you, whether you are in a major metro,
a state capital, a small town or a tiny hamlet, you’ll
spot a sadhu somewhere on the landscape. Their bodies
smeared with ash, forehead anointed with sandalwood
paste, sadhus carry all their material possessions with
them: a begging or alms bowl, a wooden staff, a woolen
blanket and many a rudraksha or tulsi mala around their
neck or wrists.
Some of them travel alone, others in small groups. Some
have taken vows of silence, some can be found standing
on one foot for years while others unpredictably burst
into songs of religious ecstasy, especially when high
on ganja (hash or grass).
Others go about chanting hymns or indecipherable mantras.
