AROUND THE PASHUPATINATH

The Pashupatinath temple, an oldest Hindu temple in Kathmandu, established in the 17th century is my frequently visiting holy site.Pashupati has been always photogenic phenomena for me.

In the morning priest cleaning the temple to make worship.





FACS OF SADHUS


Early in the morning sadus preparing themselves

             This Sadhu with white lines painted on foreheads very happy to pose for the photographs.

This  sadhu has such long hair and whiskers. He let down his long golden hair after i took a few shots of him.


                   Managed to capture this sadhu in this kuti reading vacancy section on the newspaper

Pashupathinath is Nepal's most renowned Hindu cremation site. As it said about 20 to 40 cremations per day takes here. Along the shores of the Bagmati river near the temple i saw poor people cremating dead body where they hardly managed buy enough wood to cover all the body. i wasted no time capturing this shot.


Parting Shot

On the way back, i saw naked tree which reminds me above cremating.
