A devotee's hand holds a yellow turmeric-dyed coconut or kalasha-like object wrapped in yellow fibre, while another hand reaches to receive or steady it. The wrist of the receiving person bears a heavy gold bangle and a rudraksha mala, and a yellow thread is tied around the wrist. Beside them, a person in an orange-brown garment wears a long gold-beaded necklace with a pendant and a rudraksha bracelet, with white sacred ash markings on the forearm. Blurred flowers in yellow, purple and red fill the background.2013-12-25October 18 20152015-10-18Photo 11715443March 12 20182018-03-12August 28 20182018-08-28
