Loading ...I saw my first Sadhu man in the film Baraka it caught my attention right away, i did some research about them and found them fascinating, not just their very unique looks but also their purpose in this world, “what a noble thing to do with your life” i thought. Finally i was on my way to Nepal and one of the things i was excited for (one of many) was too see in person a real Sadhu man. I was walking through Durbar square in Kathmandu when i see this couple of sadhus, i was so happy and started to photograph them… then they approached me and asked me for money… the whole mysticism vanished right away.
