Postcards From Readers: Holy man in Varanasi, India
The photographer: Gary Stock of Sacramento
Behind the lens: I was walking the ghats (steps for bathers leading to a riverbank) along the Ganges River in the Hindu holy city of Varanasi, India. I had just been to see the nightly ceremony for the sacred river when I passed this Brahmin who was meditating on a ledge on the ghats.
