A tall golden dhvaja pillar with a saffron flag is being raised by two men in orange robes holding ropes, one bare-chested with rudraksha malas. Nearby a dark stone Nandi bull sits draped in a red cloth. A group of about a dozen people in saffron and orange robes stand in a line behind the pillar, some playing drums, while others in white dhoti-style clothing stand at the right. A framed deity image rests on a stand beside the pillar.2020-04-25 +1 copiesJune 26 20202020-06-26A tall golden flagstaff with a red-orange cloth banner and a finial of golden bells and green leaves rises beside a seated black stone Nandi bull on a pedestal, with coconut palms behind. Two or three men in saffron-orange dhotis and rudraksha malas stand near the base, one holding a brass plate with offerings and another holding a small bell. Their hair is long and tied up, and they appear to be performing a ritual near the flagstaff, which is garlanded with red flowers.2020-06-26December 22 20182018-12-22 +1 copiesJune 26 20202020-06-26April 25 20202020-04-25 +1 copiesDecember 22 20182018-12-22 +2 copies
