the sadhus set up large camps while at the kumbh mela, and there were all sorts of activities going on when they weren’t in the bathing processions. that’ll be the subject of the next post, but in the meantime, here’s a little something the baba nagas did to entertain the crowds. it’s something they said is related to yoga, but we just called it “the penis trick.” don’t try this at home.

first, take your penis, and wrap it around a stick.	make sure it’s good and tight.	next, pull the stick back between your legs, one end at a time, so that it creates a little stand under your butt.	finally, have your partner stand on the stick.	ladies and gentlemen – the penis trick!

next: more scenes from the kumbh mela.
