The priest has a shaved head, rudraksha beads on his wrists and neck, and a red-orange cloth wrapped on his lower body. Behind him a large garland of yellow, orange and purple flowers hangs, and a blurred crowd of devotees stands in the background. The statue is being bathed in an abhishekam ritual. The priest is a shaved-headed ritual officiant, and no appearance-based candidate for a person is present in this image.2016-12-05December 03 20162016-12-03 +1 copiesA bronze standing statue of a figure with a garland of yellow flowers around its neck is being bathed with a golden-yellow liquid poured from a brass vessel.
