Several bare-chested men wear rudraksha malas, and white sacred ash marks foreheads and arms. In the foreground, a woman in white with a gold border holds a small oil lamp, a man in a green and gold sari-style garment holds a lamp, and a bare-chested young man with a moustache and a rudraksha mala holds a lit oil lamp beside an older man in glasses holding a lamp. Brass vessels and plates of offerings sit on a green leaf on the floor, and a microphone stand is visible at right. No one in the image is clearly identifiable as a person from the visible cues, so the presence of a person is treated as uncertain.2019-01-01November 13 20132013-11-13
