While you are having a long lie-in on Christmas morning, Professor Shyamsundar Goswamy
While you are having a long lie-in on Christmas morning, Professor Shyamsundar Goswamy, sixty-year-old Indian Yogi, will be up at 5 a.m. So also will forty-nine-year-old Dr. Dinabandhu Pramanick, whom the professor introduces as " my best pupil and chief assistant." There will be no over-heavy Christmas breakfast to start their day. For, after they have done their Yoga abdominal exercises, dressed in imitation leopard skin trunks, they will both stand on their heads for thirty to forty minutes in complete silence.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from December 1950, we catch a glimpse of an extraordinary morning routine that challenges the norms of Christmas festivities. While most people indulge in a leisurely lie-in on this joyous day, Professor Shyamsundar Goswamy and his dedicated pupil Dr. Dinabandhu Pramanick embark on a unique journey at the crack of dawn. At the age of sixty, Professor Goswamy proves that age is just a number as he embraces his role as an Indian Yogi with unwavering commitment. Alongside him stands Dr. Pramanick, introduced by the professor himself as his best pupil and chief assistant. Dressed in imitation leopard skin trunks, these two yogis begin their day not with a hearty Christmas breakfast but rather with Yoga abdominal exercises to awaken their bodies and minds. However, it is what follows that truly captures our attention – they both stand on their heads for an astonishing thirty to forty minutes in complete silence. This mesmerizing display showcases their dedication to physical mastery and spiritual enlightenment through unconventional means. The juxtaposition between traditional holiday customs and this unusual practice adds an element of humor to the scene. As we gaze upon this intriguing photograph captured by Mirrorpix's lens, we are reminded that there are countless paths towards self-discovery and personal growth – even during moments typically associated with relaxation and indulgence like Christmas morning in 1950s India.
