A photograph of a ceremonial exchange on a stage. In the centre, a smiling person in an orange turban, orange shawl and layered rudraksha and beaded necklaces holds a woven basket with a small booklet and stands before a gilded ornate throne. On the right, a bald man with white tripundra markings and a red-brown dhoti holds a red tray. Behind him, another shaved-headed man in red-brown garments stands. On the left, an elderly bearded man in a pink-white kurta and orange shawl gestures with open palms. Brass oil lamps stand in the foreground, and a large backdrop shows a glowing green deity murti with a crown and halo, with a leopard-skin cloth on the throne.
