Indian art is hailed as young, vibrant and relevant even today. The panorama of Indian art is wide, complex and meaningful as well as fascinating as it has been a product of diverse historical and cultural contexts and internal and external influences. Most notable about Indian art is its inseparability from its culture and its expression of the self; it has always been changing with space and time yet remains continuously same and alive. It embodies continuity in change.

The sadhus can be variantly described as "spiritual adventurers, ascetic warriors, devout mystics, occult rebels, philosophic monks, or even representatives of gods"; but they certainly represent the essence of Hindu spiritualism - which calls for detachment, a liberation from worldly bondage. Rajesh Bedi: one of India's most eminent photographers, specially of wildlife, has followed sadhus for three decades.
