A seated devotee, seen from behind and partly in profile, wears an orange saffron-coloured garment draped over one shoulder and sits before a colourful striped cloth in blue, pink, green and yellow. The person has a shaved head with a small braided knot at the crown and wears a rudraksha-style brown bead mala around the neck and beaded bands on the upper arm and wrist, plus a gold bracelet. In the raised hands is a brown husked coconut, held up while the palms are pressed together in front of it. A wooden frame edge is visible at the upper left.2017-01-06A photograph of a shaven-headed person seen from behind and side, wearing orange saffron cloth draped over the shoulder and bare upper back. Multiple rudraksha malas hang at the neck, and brown rudraksha bands with gold bands are worn on the wrist and upper arm. The person holds a brown husked coconut in one raised hand while the other hand is held palm-out in a gesture of blessing or concentration, seated in front of a colourful striped blue, pink, green and yellow cloth. The image is a close-up of a coconut-related ritual demonstration. Appearance is not clearly established, so the identity is uncertain; a person is only a page-level claim.2017-01-06January 06 20172017-01-06A seated bare-chested figure in orange cloth, wearing layered rudraksha malas and gold ornaments, holds a half coconut in one hand while another hand extends toward it from the right. The seated figure has a shaved head with a long braid and a white forehead mark; the hands are held over a striped multicoloured cloth draped over a wooden stool, and orange fabric covers the lap. The gesture suggests a demonstration of moving a coconut without touching it.2017-01-06 +1 copiesJanuary 06 20172017-01-06 +1 copiesMarch 25 20132013-03-25June 05 20122012-06-05Two people in orange saffron robes sit cross-legged on a floor covered with a colourful striped woven mat in blue, pink, green and yellow. The person on the left, bare-shouldered with a shaved head and white forehead marking, wears layered rudraksha beaded malas and a gold-toned bracelet, and holds a brown coconut on an open palm. The person on the right, also shaved-headed with a white marking, holds one hand palm-down above the coconut as if directing energy toward it. A wooden stool-like frame sits behind them.2017-01-06 +1 copiesMarch 21 20132013-03-21March 22 20132013-03-22August 09 20112011-08-09March 22 20132013-03-22
