A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on a mat in a temple-like hall, grinding herbs with a stone pestle in a carved stone mortar. He wears a leopard-print headband, a rust-orange shawl over bare shoulders, and rudraksha beads and a gold chain. Smoke fills the air. Around him are green leaves, a blue-and-white metal pot, a small brass bowl with a yellow offering, a silver pedestal stand holding a silver vessel, a tray with a small oil lamp burning, and a silver stand holding ornamental garlands. Carved wooden screens stand in the background.
