A photograph of a ritual at a temple shrine. A man with long dark hair, a rudraksha mala across his chest and bracelets stoops over a white shivalingam, his hand resting on its base amid scattered pink and yellow flower petals. He wears a rust-brown top and a leopard-print lower garment, with white ash marks on his arms. Behind him stand large deity murtis dressed in green, red and orange silk with gold ornaments, crowns and garlands of yellow, red and white flowers. Gold ritual vessels appear at the lower left.

A man stands at left, bare-chested with a leopard-print wrap, rudraksha beads on his arms and neck, and white ash smeared on his shoulders and arms, gesturing with open palms toward a white-coated Shiva lingam set on a dark base, with flowers and petals at its foot. Behind the lingam, a deity murti is dressed in a green and red silk sari with gold ornaments and a garland, and marigold and rose garlands in yellow, red and white hang along the back wall. Probable Swamiji cues: the standing man has long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ash, and performs the abhishekam-style offering.2018-02-13 +1 copiesFebruary 13 20182018-02-13 +1 copiesFebruary 13 20182018-02-13 +1 copiesFebruary 13 20182018-02-13 +2 copiesFebruary 13 20182018-02-13 +1 copies
