Close-up photo of a ritual setup on a white floor. A small clear crystal Shivalinga with a gold cobra hood sits on a brass stand on a brass plate scattered with yellow and white petals and a few purple flowers. A hand, its fingers holding a small white petal or flower piece, is dropping it toward the lingam from the upper right. Behind are brass bowls and small brass cones on a dark maroon cloth, a small lit oil lamp in the lower left, and dishes of white offering in the lower right. No people are fully visible beyond the hand.2017-02-01December 19 20162016-12-19February 01 20172017-02-01February 01 20172017-02-01February 02 20172017-02-02February 01 20172017-02-01Close photo of a ritual setup on a white marble floor.
