Holy Smoke


Woke up on Wednesday morning to find that the pavement in front of our house was converted into a tiny market. Closer inspection revealed that these enterprising urchins were making a tidy profit selling cannabis leaves on Shivratri ! These leaves are placed as offerings to Lord Shiva besides being used to manufacture bhang. It is also magical how the numbers of children multiply in a space of a few seconds when a camera appears.
