In the bustling streets of this ancient city, a Sadhu, a Hindu holy man, is seen sitting outside an internet cafe. The juxtaposition of his serene presence against the backdrop of technology creates a thought-provoking scene. Draped in vibrant robes and adorned with intricate jewelry, the Sadhu exudes an aura of spirituality and wisdom. His necklaces glisten under the sunlight as he patiently waits for something or someone. With his eyes fixed on some distant point, he seems lost in deep contemplation.
