Under a blistering sun, I recently followed Sufi pilgrims for a 180-kilometer (112 mi) walk across the desert and mountains of Baluchistan, in Pakistan. We could hear Radio Baba from afar; he danced every day for hours, blissed out while balancing his radio on his head, shaking bells attached to his ankles.
