Cigarettes, roses to please Ashram’s Aghori Dada

Hundreds of devotees – most of them wanting their wishes to be fulfilled – line up at the ‘samadhi’ of Aghori Dada every Thursday, offering a cigarette and a rose. Located at the Dadhichi Rishi ashram on the banks of the Sabarmati river, hundreds of devotees visit the shrine every Thursday, even during the pandemic.
