My Tryst With Swami Avdesh Anand Ji Juna Akhara Maha Mandleshwar

I first met Swami Avdesh Anandji at Allahabad 2013 Maha Kumbh I was in in the same procession with my Naga Guru Shri Vijay Giri Maharaj also of Juna Akhara .
I shot Swamiji ,, again at Nasik Kumbh 2015 ,, and he talked to me I told him I was a Shia Muslim and my Guru was a Naga Sadhu he smiled and gave me his picturs two of them that I use on the reverse side of my Press Card when I shoot Hindu events .. it saves me from rogue Sadhus and rogue bullying cops and volunteers at the Kumbh.
Once again I met Swamiji and again talked to him when he took the dip at the river Shipra Ujjain Kumbh 2016 ,, I shot his video and his stills and I love shooting this living legend holy man of the Naga Sadhus a simple man and not at all a Godman.
I dont know if I will be alive for the next Kumbh at Allahabad ,, but whatever my financial condition I tried not to miss one of the Shai Snan..
Khamakhya is a Mini Kumbh an amazing place for Aghoris Tantrics and the Naga Sadhus too...
I have shot over 70000 Hindu blogs all at Flickr public and private as my documentary Hope And Hindutva A Message of Universal Peace .
This is my tribute to my Hindu Gurus My Hindu Teachers and above all my Hindu Friends without all of them I could have never reached this far in life ,, and the camera of my cosmic Mind made it possible,.

The Ujjain Kumbh 2016,,..My Documentary on You Tube

posted at Facebook

I was invited to the Ujjain Kumbh 2016 by my Naga Guru Shri Vijay Giri Maharaj... and I documented the first Shahi Snan ..

I wanted to make it to the following Shahi Snans but much as I tried it was not possible ,,I had asked Advocate Ashish Shelar MLA to help me but he was busy and my fate too was not Ujwal... means Not Shining .

But I shot over 4500 images ,, I did not move very far from the tent where I lived with my Guru and his other disciples and heads of Juna Akhhara.

On the night of the Shai Snan my Guru was seriously unwell he asked me to lead his band so I took up the chant of Har Har Mahadev as we walked rapidly from Bhuki Mata Road to Shipra River ,, on the way my Guru collapsed and everyone in the group walked away to make it in time for the auspicious hour , I stayed back with my Guru ,, he knew I had come to shoot so he ordered me to leave him I refused and bought him to the Tani where all the Nagas had assembled for the puja before the dip.. I got my Guru some coffee and though he was shivering he felt better ,..

We now moved to the banks of the Shipra two of his disciples re joined us ,, My Guru took the Dip and he came out more refreshed and with a beatific smile ,, than he asked me to take the dip.. I did .

Now it was time to leave but I requested my Guru I would stay back now that his two disciples were there to take him back.

And as they left I met my French photographer friend Fo Paris Francois I joined him....but I moved ahead and was lucky to meet Swami Avdesh Anandji, he smiled and he knows I am a Muslim .. and so I shot his Shahi Snan and walked back taking a long detour to my camp.

Well I shot videos but now I am assimilating my Ujjain storyboard as a slideshow including the images that I had to restrict because of frontal nudity at Flickr ,, I am uploading this via the Window Movie Maker to my You Tube channel.

One thing I realized You Tube has a greater outreach than Flickr Facebook .. and I use Facebook by disabling it from public view .. I will never use Facebook publicly and I dont even like posting my storyboards at Facebook.

Luckily all these latest outings of mine are on my external hard drive so I can make a video.. my older images loads of them are on DVDS and I dont have a DVD player on my Dell..

And I worked on a lot of my image albums 30 days that I was swooning in loneliness on my wretched bed because of a serious toe injury ,, that is not willing to heal.

Of late I do shoot stills but my first preference is video.. either on my mobile phone or my camera ,,,

People are seeing my stuff ,,my playlist is Shiasm Hinduism , Hindu Feasts Kumbh Maha Kumbh Marriammen Feast Ganesha Durga festivals .Ear Cleaners Barbers Hijras ..Bandra Blogs, Tennis and the eponymous Swach Bharat Garbage Porn Bandra Bazar Road.

A few videos of my granddaughters ,, my set on Sufism Dargahs Rafaees my Dam Madar Malang Oder .. and I have also added my street photography of the cities I visited specially Lucknow.

I have not shot Bolywood ,,,being a part of it ,,, but I have a video of Mr Danny Denzongpa I will post it when his picture releases ..

So this is my Introduction to my Ujjain Kumbh videos..

A Beggar poet at the Tennis Court

Barefeet anxiously I was waiting
For Rana Jaideep Rastogi my pardner
At the Tennis Court ..I was poetically 
Holding Fort ..than I sent him a SMS
That he must urgently report ...our
Tennis session I was not willing to abort

But than a sailor is a sailor is a sailor
Beautiful women at every port why the
Fuck will he come to try out his amorous
Skills at the tennis court ...

But he did come finally ..he is a very good
Sport ...

The Roaring Lion at the Tennis Court Rana Rastogi

Bandra s most beautiful tennis port

But women you cannot court

All happily married ..was a silent retort

Tennis the most happening sport

My Poetic Wastelands

It has a brand
Now it is a lotus
Earlier it was a
Traffic policewalas
Raised hand ..
My constituency
Nurtured by
Ms Poona Mahajan MP
Advocate Ashish Shelar MLA
Is a sight to behold very grand

Swach Bharat cleaning garbage
From the land but who will clean
The evil minds of cow protectors
Extortionists terrorizing Dalit
Muslins of our aggrieved
Motherland ..

Acche din I cannot understand
I don't want 15 lakhs in my bank
Account dear Modiji give it the
Farmers widows ..a thought I
Won't poetically expand ..

Progress development ..gasping in the
quick sand as a Indian and as a Muslim
I sincerely hope and pray you build the
Ram Mandir at Ayodhya as planned
But please spare the minorities as your
Pervading silence on the soul of Humanity
everyone misunderstands
As those that were once Kar Sevaks
Now in the guise of Gau Raksha Dal
have become a dangerous clan..

I have faith in you as the leader not of a
Political party or the RSS .
But our elected Head of our beautiful
Wonderful ..Land divided we fall
But united we must stand ..

My Humble Tribute To Dr Raju Earcleaner Bandra Talao

Bandra Bandra Bandra ,,, Street Photography And More

moments slithering away in silence
essence and core Bandra the majestic
queen of the suburbs the Municipality
open garbage has made it a whore ,,
god alone knows after the civic elections
for the common man what next in store
carter road bandstand where the khans
reside serenity and more ,,but bandra of
the gaothans bandra of the slums ,,is a
tapestry of pain apathy neglect shut doors
our local representatives have no love for
bandra ..roads become flooded with a single
downpour ,,congress free bandra a siren call
progress and development was supposed
to be at the fore ..in a few years it might be
BJP free Bandra when the common man
will roar ,, Fuck we cant take it anymore ,,
