makamkruka
'A makamkruka is - it's difficult to describe - a man who is a makamkruka is a churner, an agitator. Someone who perhaps sees things more clearly by turning everything upside down. He's a devil almost, a yaksa. Though a makamkruka, strangely, guards the sacred spot in a temple ground. No one knows why this kind of person is honoured with such a responsibility.'
Michael Ondaatje, _Anil's Ghost_
About Me
- Name: oswald
"Hidden somewhere in this noisy, chaotic morass of society is our fellow traveler, Waldo. A man unstuck from place and time, he travels the world on foot, his only lifeline to his friends and family a litany of dreary picture-postcards sent from arbitrary locations the world over. His postcards do nothing to convey the humanity, the madness of Waldo's adventures. For that, we must go find him."
