A photograph of a stage event. A bearded man with long, swept-back hair wears saffron-orange robes and a pink-and-white flower garland; he is seated on an ornate white and red throne decorated with a sun-face motif, and places his hand on the forehead of an older woman in a cream and gold sari with a black shawl who bows before him. Behind the throne rises a large silver trishula, and gold kalasha-topped urns flank the stage. A starry purple cosmic backdrop fills the background. On the left, a man in a maroon kurta stands beside a bowing figure in white and gold ritual dress. On the right, a woman in a gold sari wears a rudraksha mala and watches the blessing. Visible people number four to five, including the seated figure, the bowing woman, the standing attendants and the woman on the right.
