A man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl with a gold border holds a tiered silver aarti lamp with multiple lit oil lamps aloft during a ritual in a hall. He has a rudraksha mala around his neck and a red tilak on his forehead, and his head is shaved. Seated devotees in orange and white clothing watch and sit in rows behind him, and a video camera on a tripod is at left. A small round window-style logo appears in the upper left corner.

A man with a shaved head stands at the right holding a silver multi-tier aarti lamp with many lit oil lamps, wearing an orange-saffron shawl with gold border and a rudraksha mala at his neck. Seated devotees fill the hall behind him, many in orange and white clothing, some with lamps. A video camera on a tripod sits at the left edge. A small sign on the wall and a wall fan are visible. The lamps suggest an aarti performed during a satsang gathering.2012-07-16September 03 20122012-09-03 +1 copiesA shaved-headed man in saffron-orange robes with maroon borders stands in the foreground holding up a tiered silver aarti lamp with multiple lit oil lamps, performing aarti. Behind him a seated congregation fills a wood-panelled hall with a patterned brown wall; many women wear white and cream saris, some in red and maroon. A woman in white at lower right presses her palms together in prayer, and a few devotees hold small lamps. The aarti lamp and white forehead markings are the clearest visible details. The man's appearance does not clearly match a person candidate, so he is described by role as a priest performing aarti.2012-09-05September 10 20122012-09-10September 10 20122012-09-10A photograph of a shaved-headed young man in an orange saffron robe with red border standing in a hall, holding a tiered silver aarti lamp stand with multiple lit oil lamps aloft.
