August 21 20142014-08-21A group of young shaved-headed ascetics in saffron-orange dhotis and wraps, with rudraksha malas and white tripundra markings on their foreheads, sit on a white floor mat performing a seated ritual. Several hold brass lamps or ritual implements over small plates of fruit and sweets on low wooden stands. Behind them, men in white dhotis and shirts, some wearing red shawls, sit with hands folded in prayer. The setting looks like a hall with a tiled floor and a blue cloth strip on the floor.2013-11-18A photograph of a row of young boys and teenagers seated cross-legged on a white tiled floor during a ritual, all wearing saffron-orange dhoti-style cloths and rudraksha malas, with white vibhuti stripes on their foreheads. Many hold tall brass horn-shaped vessels to their mouths or in their hands, while steel pots, bowls and kalasha-like vessels line the floor in front of them, some on low silver-toned platforms. A small red and yellow floral offering sits near the vessels. Red curtains hang on the wall behind. No a person candidate is visible.2013-11-25August 21 20142014-08-21November 16 20132013-11-16 +1 copiesFebruary 27 20142014-02-27August 21 20142014-08-21September 23 20132013-09-23April 01 20132013-04-01 +1 copiesJuly 24 20132013-07-24June 26 20142014-06-26Photo 11688438
