Believe it or not.. this man rolled over the hot road (yes it was real hot day....) from more than 1/2 km from the main road... I dont think i can do such acts of devotion.....

Faith and DHRITI(determination) can achieve anything.
No one can categorise it as bad, it all flays at the individual levels. Nice shot!

@Srik: Sri,
I am particularly impressed with people who roll on the ground.. their bodies must hurt like hell afterwards..
Me neither.. Interesting subject.

I wish I could show acts of devotion like that, also... I admire that man.

@jennifer radio: Sometimes acts of devotions like this carry a deep meaning within the person who goes through the whole thing. Like the Ashura in Iran.. Thaipusam bears the same meanings too!
Man that is dedication. Yesterdays shot was awesome, he sure doesn't look happy does he.

@Darren: I agree with you. Again, the ground was boiling hot and the heat was unbearable..
Very impressive.

A Personal opinion. This is getting little too much Shiva.

@Prem: life goes on... you havent seen how much drastic these devotees can take the kavadi limits too... like what you meant.. I think it is a bit too much too sometimes.... Over drastic..
PREVIEW ONLY
