A photograph of a ritual in an indoor room with pale pink walls. A man with hair in a bun and bare upper body, draped in a rust-orange cloth and wearing a rudraksha mala, uses both hands to press a gesture onto the face of a bald, bearded man in a white garment with an orange lanyard. A devotee in a red shawl and orange-brown cloth holds a folded yellow-and-gold cloth below. Behind them, deity murtis are garlanded with yellow and purple flower garlands. Two women in white and red stand to the right, and a window and wall fixtures are visible behind.

A photograph of an orange-robed figure seated on a golden-backed throne before a deep red draped curtain. The seated figure has a white tilak and red bindi on the forehead, wears layered rudraksha malas and a gold necklace, and holds a palm raised toward a man in a white kurta with an orange shawl who leans forward with hands joined in reverence. A red box with small items sits near the seated figure, and a second orange-robed person is partly visible behind. The seated figure appears to be a person, identified by the saffron and ornate clothing, rudraksha malas and gold necklace, with the seated role consistent with a throne. A man in white with an orange shawl is a devotee receiving blessing. Two physical people are clearly visible, with a third partly seen.
