Seated devotees in orange robes sit on red cloth behind him beside audio mixing equipment and cables. A gold-and-red throne with a gilded lion-head finial stands at the right edge. The scene appears to be a lamp-waving ritual during a satsang or puja. The man performing the aarti is a priest-type figure in ritual dress; no visible cues establish his identity, so a person is unsure.2013-12-20August 04 20172017-08-04September 30 20162016-09-30A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a red and maroon sash sits on a red mat and holds a small brass oil lamp (deepam) lit with a flame in his right hand while his eyes are closed. He has a white urdhva-pundra tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, wears rudraksha malas and a pendant, and has a beaded armlet. Behind him, others in white and red clothing hold more lit oil lamps.2013-04-13August 04 20172017-08-04
