A HOLY :^AMII.Y 



Of the vast army of Sadhiis who roam about India, either alone or with companions 

 not many have settled homes. It is unusual to find an ascetic accompanied by a wife and 

 family, for conjugal felicitv enjoved by the Sadhu suggests that he has adopted the life 

 merely to prey upon the credulity of the faithful and indulge his own irresponsible mdolence.
