Outdoor ritual photo at an ashram: a large dark polished stone lingam-like form draped with a long garland of red, yellow, white and purple flowers. Two shaved-headed priests in saffron/orange robes stand behind it; the one at center wears a white tilak on his forehead, a beaded mala and a gold bangle, and raises one hand with a finger pointing while the other hand is pressed in anjali. The second priest on the left holds an open book or papers. Behind them is an orange-roofed building and white railings. Two men are visible, so the description does not identify either as a person.
