In the foreground a bare-chested priest in orange-and-yellow dhoti with a rudraksha mala and tilak carries a brass plate with a lit flame. Around him stand several men in green dhotis and shawls, some bare-chested, watching. Behind a square fire pit lined with white and red painted tiles, a richly decorated ornamental structure garlanded with yellow flowers and a canopy stands with a deity murti at its centre. Brass lamps and offering vessels sit on an orange cloth near the pit, and a microphone stand is at left. A few figures in saffron and orange stand at the right. Several dozen men appear in the scene.2015-01-12January 11 20152015-01-11January 09 20182018-01-09May 20 20152015-05-20January 11 20152015-01-11
