A man in the center wears a long orange-marigold garland, an orange upper cloth over a white dhoti, and a rudraksha-style necklace, with his hands folded at his chest. Around him stand several men in white dhotis with bare upper bodies; one at the left has sacred thread and yellow-marked arms, another at the lower right is bald with red-and-white tilak and a thread across his chest. The group stands in front of a dark wooden temple doorway. Their Hindu ritual attire suggests a temple ceremony. The central figure's cues are a long hair style, orange clothing, and ornate garland, which are only partially distinctive, so identity is uncertain.September 10 20152015-09-10A KAILASA slide titled June 2008 with a photograph on the left and white text on a dark background on the right.
