Are you sure that this is a real market picture, or a photo shopped image attempting to depict what this guy was dreaming about while he took a snooze?  ;D

My hometown  :)
That should be a common scene these days -- April and May are peak mango months.

This in not a rare sight in many parts of India! The mound of mangoes in the foreground is 'benishan' and the one on which he is resting is what is known as 'Bangalora' or 'Totapuri'. The other two I cannot make out. Chandramohan.

Saw scenes just like this in India. Very realistic, right down to the trash amongst the mangoes.  :(

HAHA. But the time i got there the Maharishi was already in the next reincarnation. He died in the USA i think. Moved to USA after being accused of tax fraud in India.
