His hair is tied in a tall topknot. Behind and to the right, another arm raises a lit brass lamp with flames. Seated devotees in orange, teal and red saris and kurtas fill the blurred background, many with hands raised in worship. The setting appears to be an indoor hall during an aarti-style ritual.2016-05-24A photograph of an evening aarti in a hall. Three bare-chested young men in orange dhoti-style cloths, with rudraksha malas and white markings on their chests and foreheads, hold up brass oil lamps with bright flames. The central figure in front holds a lamp in his right hand and a bell-like object is visible at the right edge. Seated devotees, mostly women in saris and salwar, fill the background, and a framed poster and a shrine-like display are visible on the wall.2016-10-12May 18 20192019-05-18May 31 20182018-05-31November 09 20072007-11-09August 03 20172017-08-03A photograph of a bare-chested man in an orange cloth wrap, wearing a rudraksha mala and a pendant necklace, holding a silver aarti lamp with a lit flame aloft in his right hand and a silver bell in his left, performing aarti in a hall. Seated devotees in orange fill the foreground and background, and a pink chair sits near the left. Maroon curtains and framed colourful posters line the walls. The man has long swept-back hair and the page names a person, but his appearance gives only partial cues, so the identity is uncertain.2017-07-30August 02 20172017-08-02August 03 20172017-08-03
