A fire ritual at a homa pit, with thick logs burning and smoke rising on the left. A person in orange robes and layered gold necklaces holds a steel bowl of golden fried offerings tipped toward the fire, and another steel plate of the same offerings sits above. Wrists carry beaded malas and the forearms bear white ash markings. Marigold and yellow flower garlands sit at the right edge, and a lamp flame glows in the upper left. Lower text reads Nithyanandeshwara Paramashiva Devalayam, Adi KAILASA and Navaratri 2021, Day 2 - Vishesha Dravya Homa.
