A white sandalwood band marks his forehead with a red bindi, and white paste covers his upper arms. Behind him, several people in maroon robes with gold borders sit on the floor, some holding small lamps. The man is a priest or sannyasi and his appearance does not clearly match the page's a person claim.2013-07-09Close-up photo of a shaved-headed man with white horizontal tilak lines and a red dot on his forehead, wearing rudraksha mala strands and a rust-brown robe. He holds a lit brass oil lamp in his outstretched right hand, flame clearly burning, and appears to be speaking. A gold bracelet and beaded wrist mala are visible. The blurred background shows a red-and-white floor with a soft-focus object.
