Om Santhi, Santhi, Santhi…

This man in the picture above is not an England football fan with St George’s flag badly drawn on his face. Neither has he got blood trickling down his face after being hit or shot.

However if you were to talk to him, he might most probably say he does not care who wins the World Cup. But he would definitely mind any mention of violence or blood, for he is a man of peace.

He is a sadhu (holy man) from India, with a painted face marking a religious symbol. His chants, as mentioned above, are for the peace – of his own and for the rest of us.
