November 08 20132013-11-08Night ritual photograph of several brass kalasha pots topped with yellow coconuts wrapped in green leaves and tied with string, arranged on a raised platform over a floor scattered with grains and blue-chalked patterns. In the foreground a seated priest in a maroon garment wears a rudraksha-style bead necklace with a white ornament. Behind, seated participants in white and orange-red robes, and a man in white with a cloth on his head, sit in rows while onlookers in white stand in the dark background. The pots show decorative beadwork and cloth wraps, consistent with a puja or homa setting.2013-11-19November 08 20132013-11-08March 10 20132013-03-10Photo 11696269September 07 20172017-09-07 +1 copiesDecember 09 20112011-12-09Photo 11684227December 12 20162016-12-12December 14 20112011-12-14December 09 20112011-12-09A brass kalasha pot wrapped with white thread lattice stands on a brass plate ringed with yellow marigold blossoms and a sprinkling of white grains.
