Photo of a seated ritual on a stage with ornate gold and silver décor. A bearded man with long, piled black hair wrapped in a rudraksha band, wearing a saffron-orange cloth draped over the shoulders, rudraksha malas and bead armbands, sits on a silver throne upholstered with leopard-print fabric and holds a bundle of green leaves in his hands. A red tilak marks his forehead. Before him sits a second man with his back to the camera, wearing an orange turban and orange garment, with white sacred ash markings on his bare back, presenting a white cloth-wrapped offering. A silver trident stands on the left against a golden lattice screen, and a microphone is in front of the throne. The scene suggests a puja or ritual performed by the seated figure, with an appearance-based probable identification as a person based on the long piled hair, rudraksha malas and saffron clothing, shown on the throne as the officiant.
