A photograph of a ritual initiation. A figure in a brown and gold-bordered robe and a rust-coloured head wrap, with a pink beaded necklace, sits with back turned and presses a palm to the forehead of a short-haired man in a navy and white striped polo shirt, who stands with palms pressed together in namaskar. Behind them a seated woman in a white gold-bordered sari wears a dark beaded mala, with a bangle on her wrist. Several people in white and checked clothing stand in the background, and a pedestal fan is visible at left.
