Naga Babas celebrating Shivaratri at the Kumbh Mela, Haridwar, India.

Finding my direction

When I started this blog a few days ago I had no “game plan” other than to have a place to post photos along with a few words. Now I’m starting to see that there are topics I’d like to write about. I guess it’s a case of “Start blogging and posts will come.”

In the meantime here’s one of my favorite Naga Babas on his cycle at the Haridwar Kumbh Mela.

As you can see from this photo as well as the one below, smoking chillum (hash) is an important part of Naga Baba daily life.
