In the foreground, a man with long, swept-back dark hair and white ash stripes on his forehead, arms and chest sits cross-legged on a red floor cloth, dressed in an orange saffron wrap with a green and yellow trim and a beaded necklace, reaching toward brass vessels and offerings. Behind him, a bearded man in an orange turban and orange cloth stands beside a golden casket. To the right, a white draped cloth hangs over a seat. Brass lamps, a brass kalasha-style vessel, a small golden pyramid-shaped object and fruit are arranged on the foreground surface.2007-08-09Outdoor homa ritual at a square stone fire pit (kunda) with smoke rising from the burning offerings. A central figure in orange-saffron robes, a rudraksha-style beaded garland and a silver trident-like staff stands at the pit holding a small offering vessel, while a silver-ornamented palanquin-style seat with a kalasha-like structure is behind. Seated priests, shaved-headed and bare-chested, wear orange cloths and white tilaka markings; one holds hands in anjali. Devotees in orange saris and robes sit around the pit, some with hands folded.
