A priest in white dhoti and shawl sits cross-legged at the lower right, facing the fire.

Beside him, a woman in a red and orange sari stands near several devotees in orange and white.

A brick fire pit with a bright flame sits at the centre, surrounded by offerings. On the right, a long-haired figure in saffron-orange robes sits with palms pressed together in prayer. Beside them, a man in white ritual clothes sits near the fire. To the left, a child in a red garment sits by the fire, and a young boy in white kneels at the pit. Several other people in white and light clothing sit in the background, and a small oil lamp burns near the front edge. The long-haired figure in saffron robes with a folded-hands posture is a probable Swamiji by appearance, present in person at the fire ritual.2006-02-11August 29 20122012-08-29Photo 11730882 +1 copiesPhoto 11742865
