This is a collection of photographs featuring sadhus and sadhvis all across India, for an anthropological study of asceticism in South East Asia. Regardless of how one feels about them, The fact that they can exist at all is a testament to the level of freedom found within Indian society, a freedom absent in the West, where such concepts can be profoundly shallow.

Contents:

Folder, Sadhus and Sadhvis, 11,172 photographs, 8.24 GB
Folder, Vintage Sadhus, 178 photographs, 36.2 MB
Folder, Baba Shyam Kisor Das, 202 photographs, 372 MB
Folder, Sadhu Book Scans, 130 scanned pages, 395 MB

Each photograph was individually selected over a period of years. The Vintage Sadhu folder contains photographs from the 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is "Sadhus, India's Mystic Holy Men" by Dolf Hartsuiker.

Over the years of collecting these pictures, one can feel a certain affinity with some of these individuals, for me Baba Shyam Kisor Das stands out as a good soul, although I have never met him. The folder with his name represents a set I was fortunate to find of him in Rishikesh.

These images are taken mostly from tourist and professional photography, and are for the most part, named as found.
