A photograph of a long-haired older man in a saffron-orange silk garment and a dark rudraksha mala with white beads, seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne. He leans forward and holds out his palm, while a second person's hand pours or applies a substance from a small silver vessel into it, and a grass blade is visible. A bowl of milk or white liquid with flowers in it sits in the foreground. A man in a maroon garment sits behind on a red chair. Because the page identifies a person at this event and the seated man wears saffron-orange silk, a rudraksha mala and a long swept-back hairstyle, this is a person in_person presence performing a ritual action.
