You can imagine my excitement at finding this scene by the river Ganges whilst wandering the streets of Varanasi. I was not only looking for a sadhu or holy man, but also some tree roots for my base or root chakra image, the Muladhara chakra. To find them together was beyond my dreams, and this was definitely a peak experience during the whole project that took 4 years of hard, self funded work. In fact, it wasn't quite the original scene I was confronted with as there was a big crowd of followers surrounding this sadhu when I first saw him. I had to politely clear everyone away, of course, to get a clear shot of the dramatic tree roots growing out of the wall, but they all ended up behind me and when I had finished shooting I turned round to find a very large crowd watching me! I thanked everyone but was too excited to be concerned much about them, so determined was I after so many hours of travelling all around India to get the right shots for my Chakra project.

Australia
I was born in Trinidad and Tobago and travelled all over the world with my parents before settling in The UK for my education. I went to Sherborne School and Reading University before moving to London to be a photographic assistant to many different photographers including Anthony Blake and Spencer Rowell. Then I moved to Australia to further my career in photography that is now 35 years long as a commercial and art photographer in Sydney. I have had several exhibitions including Transformation 1992, Lifeforce 1996, Sahaja 2000, and have completed new spiritual works, The Chakras, 2014 that are shown here on Saatchi Art. I now also teach photography with Alfonso Photo tours in Sydney. I have two websites, Chrisljonesphoto.com for commercial and sahajaprints.com for prints.
