High Tea with The Queen's Holy Men
It was high noon,and the Sadhus took a union break for tea. Out of sight,a few of the more visible so called painted face sadus sucked on mango peals and drank cups of tea in a corner out of sight. It was strange to see them ducking from people in a corner that was flooded with light in the heat of the day. These people are not real spiritual men, but rather surviving and wanting money for a shot to fill your visual fantasy of validation. When you pay you get images like the one you see in the link. For them it was their lucky day. I was gong to introduce them to a thing called,"raw sugar".
I handed them the packages of sugar, they didn't know what it was. At first the thought it was money wrapped in brown paper. once open the sugar poured out. for the most part the sugar spilled on the street, and then came the ridicules verbal expressions. At last I was seeing more then the typical sadhu characters from the google link. See one, see them all after traveling thousands of miles for a weak shot captured on an expensive camera and lens.
