Every breath, every step
manifests our love.
Every breath brings happiness.
Every step brings happiness.
I see the whole cosmos in the earth.

A Panche has a language of its own.

• ಪಂಚೆ Panche — the garment
• ಕಚ್ಚೆ Kacche — the drape
• ಅಂಗವಸ್ತ್ರ Angavastram — the upper cloth
• ಅಂಚು Anchu — the border
• ಜರಿ Zari — metallic thread woven within the border

Know the words. Read the cloth.

Which term was new to you?

An immensely blissful young man wearing a white dhoti (a breechcloth wrapped around the waist and legs) and an angavastram (a cloth draped over the shoulder), sits on a woven stool at a blue gateway. One sign attached to the back carrier of his bicycle has The Matrix's red pill/blue pill metaphor offering a choice between continuing life as usual (blue pill) or taking 2 minutes to sit silently in meditation (red pill). There is an emphasis on direct experience over blind faith. Another sign in red at the end of a pole reads, 'Know The Self, Love All, See Oneness, Awaken All'.

I'm too sexy for my shirt
too sexy for my shirt
so sexy it hurts
I'm a model
you know what I mean
and I do my turn
on the catwalk
yeah on the catwalk

A man wearing a saffron dhoti (unstitched loincloth) and angavastram (shoulder cloth) sashays past a large busstop billboard advertising 'Saravana Stores Super Jewellery' and featuring four women displaying the retail outlet's gold and diamond selections. The juxtaposition between these ostentatious displays of wealth and the large pile of tender coconuts in the background is jarring. These humble fruits are consumed by pilgrims for their nutrient-rich natural water and delicious soft pulp as they walk barefoot the 14 km girivalam around Mount Arunachala, Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India.

Black is the colour
of my true love's hair
His face so soft
and wondrous fair
The purest eyes
and the strongest hands
I love the ground
on where He stands

A barefooted Brahmin priest wearing a traditional Indian unstitched cotton dhoti (or veshti) and angavastram shawl with woven borders crosses an outdoor courtyard covered with textured red tiles. In the background, there is a large green-framed window with white grills. Sri Ramanasramam, Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India maintains a Vedic school (Patasala) with an annual certificate course for young trainee priests. It focuses on the accurate memorisation, pronunciation and intonation of the Krishna Yajur Veda, consisting of prose mantras for worship rituals. Students also perform daily recitation of the Vedas in Bhagavan Sri Ramana's Samadhi Hall.

I didn't do it.
Nobody saw me do it.
You can't prove anything.

Look in my eyes.
See the conviction?
See the sincerity?
See the fear?

A bare-chested Indian man with a beard and dressed in traditional attire, including a white dhoti and an angavastram draped over the shoulder, fills a Bisleri bottle from a public drinking water station. He has a plastic bag at his feet. A sign above the spigots reads "DRINKING WATER" and has a green arrow pointing downwards. Another sign on the left requests people to "PLEASE MAINTAIN SILENCE".

Awake!
Approach the great
and learn.
Like the sharp edge
of a razor
is that path,
so the wise say—
hard to tread and
difficult to cross.

A young Indian Brahmin dressed in a white dhoti and angavastram (a single rectangular fabric piece used for religious or ceremonial purposes), his hair tied in a neat bun, a black handbag over his left shoulder and a cellphone in his right hand, and wearing a holy thread, a necklace and earrings, deposits his grey and yellow chappals (sandals) at a footwear stand. He carries a cellphone in his right hand. The English text on one sign reads: "FOOTWEAR NOT ALLOWED", "PLEASE LEAVE IT IN THE FOOTWEAR STAND", and "KEEP SILENCE".
