A shaved-headed priest in a red-orange dhoti and shawl with gold borders and a gold bead necklace pours water from a brass vessel over a small gold-toned deity murti standing on a pedestal, as part of an abhishekam. Behind him, a second priest in white dhoti and shawl with a bead necklace stands near a white stone sculpture. Gold-coloured statues and a dark stone basin with a yellow flower are at right, under a canopy with strings of lights.2011-03-03A priest in an orange-red dhoti and shawl with gold-bordered edges and a beaded gold-toned mala pours liquid from a brass vessel over a small gilded deity murti standing on a square base. Behind him, a second man in white ritual dhoti and shawl with a red border stands at a white marble stone figure. A black stone yoni-shaped pedestal and gilded figures are visible at right, and a string of light bulbs hangs above. This appears to be an abhishekam ritual on a murti. The pouring priest's face is turned down toward the offering and his clothing is orange-red, without distinctive a person cues such as long hair or crown, so the a person candidate is uncertain.2011-03-03 +1 copiesNovember 12 20102010-11-12March 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesNovember 15 20072007-11-15March 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesDecember 28 20162016-12-28March 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesMarch 03 20112011-03-03 +1 copiesA man in saffron-orange robes with a matching draped upper cloth and a red-edged sash pours water from a golden kalasha over a dark stone shivalingam on a black pedestal. He stands barefoot on a red mat before a shrine of decorated deity murtis, garlanded with white, yellow, red and green flower strands. A small gold standing figure and a gold pyramid-shaped object sit on the floor in front, and a bearded gold-coloured statue wearing an orange turban looms behind. The scene is an abhishekam at a temple shrine.2008-05-02March 03 20112011-03-03Photo 11699149 +1 copies
