Sadhus normally wear just a string around the waist tied to the penis, regularly smear the ashes from the dhuni on their bodies to indicate rebirth

Definitely looks like a white man. There are lot's and lot's of Indians here in Oman, and this guy does not bear any resemblence to them -- even an Indian covered in ash. Though I could be wrong. Just guessing. Anyway, love the pic. His eyes really grab you. Also glad to see you seem to have broken the barrier of taking photos that include male genitals. It didn't seem right that to exclude them but allow women's.

Looks like a white man. Do lots of people convert to this way of being? I mean, other than the local people?

Brilliant capture! They say sadhu's do not have any desires. I wonder what will be the pleasure of tasting the simple tea when the mind is not cluttered by anything else...

Btw, I'm normally 'cutting the grass' when having my tea ... and I end up not having life experience of either :)

Lovely capture and post-processing.
