Mantras Played On Street In San Antonio

A member of a tiny religious order, Markus, 17, of Haulingsn, dressed in flowing robes and a shaved head with a topknot, played mantra chants on a small organ at a busy San Antonio intersection. He is part of the Bhati sect, headquartered at a temple on Claremont, and says the religion aims to develop a pure love of God and that downtown concerts seek to attract people to its philosophy. The appearance and garb follow sect traditions, and he adds they do not argue, seeking surrender and love for others.
