February 17 20172017-02-17February 23 20172017-02-23A large dark stone Shiva lingam, wrapped with a garland of red, yellow and white flowers, is being bathed from a raised metal platform reached by a steel staircase. Several young priests in saffron-orange dhotis and garments stand on the platform, some bare-chested with rudraksha malas; one pours liquid from a vessel over the lingam while another holds a kalasha-like pot. Three horizontal gold-striped bands and a central yoni-like motif decorate the lingam. An overcast sky and a small flag are visible in the background.2017-08-07Photo 11698562November 21 20162016-11-21February 17 20172017-02-17March 27 20172017-03-27 +1 copiesFebruary 21 20172017-02-21February 21 20172017-02-21December 26 20162016-12-26 +1 copiesPhoto 11710118Outdoor abhishekam at a large dark stone shivalingam, with flower garlands of orange, yellow, pink and purple draped down its length.
