A photograph of a ritual scene. A smiling man with long dark hair, a red tilak mark on his forehead, an orange-red cloth draped over his shoulders and wrapped around his body, and multiple strands of large golden-beaded and rudraksha-style orange malas, sits on an ornate gold-carved throne with a red cushion. He holds up a handful of yellow paste or powder. Beside him a young man with a white tilak stripe and rudraksha beads on his arm, wearing bare upper body, scoops more of the yellow paste from a large brass bowl set on the floor in front of the throne. The setting is an indoor hall with striped drapes behind, a small wooden side table, and a yellow-orange cloth on the floor.
