May 16 20122012-05-16A crowded photograph of a temple-type ritual gathering. In the centre, a bare-chested man with long dark hair and a rudraksha headband wears white and orange cloth, a white flower garland with red blooms, a gold chain, and a red bindi with white sacred marks on his forehead and arms. Beside him, a shaven-headed elderly priest with a rudraksha headband, a white and orange garland and rudraksha mala is being adorned by an attendant. Around them, saffron-robed attendants, shaven-headed men with white vibhuti marks, and white-clad onlookers press close. A kalasha-style brass item is held at left. The pictured figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, but identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.2012-06-05April 29 20122012-04-29April 29 20122012-04-29A man in a rust-red draped robe stands in a temple-like hall, holding a tall yellow ceremonial staff raised overhead beneath a canopy of multicoloured tassels. He wears long pink-and-white flower garlands, heavy gold necklaces with a large gold pendant, a gold waist belt, a gold armlet and gold bangles, and has a white forehead mark. Behind him, figures in saffron-orange robes stand in a row, and a man in white dhoti with gold borders and rudraksha malas stands to the right beside silver barrier posts, a yellow stone platform with flower petals in the foreground. The man in front has long swept-back hair and a crown-less, ornate ceremonial appearance consistent with the a person cues of ornate gold jewellery and flower garlands, although identity is uncertain.2017-09-28May 08 20122012-05-08 +3 copiesApril 29 20122012-04-29May 16 20122012-05-16April 29 20122012-04-29June 05 20122012-06-05May 16 20122012-05-16April 29 20122012-04-29 +2 copies
