It is a vibrant, arresting and carefully curated gallery, taking in long-haired sages, devotees of Shiva, Vishnu and Brahman, naked wanderers, silent hermits, holy warriors, painted showmen, mantra-chanting yogis, ash-clad madmen, and seekers after and pathways to Enlightenment. Dolf Hartsuiker's expert explanations, wry comments and striking, revealing photos bring to life the mysterious and varied lives of the Sadhus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 176 pages | Published July 2014\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63985796153693,"sku":"9780500291603","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9780500291603.jpg?v=1774491999","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/sadhus-holy-men-of-india","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
