The picture was sent to me a few minutes back by my brother Malang Marc with a nostalgic note , Marc is more family than friend thanks to the camera that binds you with blood sometimes ash or vermilion..

Marc and I have traveled a great length through the corridors of the mind of Man , recorded his angst on the emulsion of thought , that I call poetry of Life.

Marc is a great photographer I am merely a novice my pictures are accidents of my karmic thirst to understand my spectral surroundings the darkness and the light...

Over the years since 2005 I have learnt to demystify my emotions , capture it in another mans angst , remorse despair and..the struggling soul chained to a mortal body.

If somebody knows me truly well as a street photographer besides my human side it is Marc De Clercq..we shot together side by side the streets of Ajmer Haji Malang and the Maha Kumbh..

We are both part of a peacful Sufi Order Dam Madar Malangs and we documented the 896 Urus of Hazrat Zinda Shah Madar Makanpur , we were both initiated as Malangs in the same year same month at Ajmer , first me by Peersab Masoomi Ali Baba Madari Asqan.. than he took Bayt after me and actually it was Marc who involuntarily inspired me to become a Malang..

This picture shot by him rekindled lost memories ...evocative illusions ..shimmering soliloquy of silence ...

I dont know whether I will go to Ajmer or Makanpur I follow my fate if it leads me where it wants to lead me as a slave of time and space.
