A photograph of an abhishekam being performed on a standing statue of a bearded sage. A hand at the top left pours liquid from a vessel over the statue's head, and liquid runs down its face, chest and robe. The figure wears a rudraksha mala of beads across the chest, a draped sannyasi-style cloth, and a tilak on the forehead. Its right hand is raised in blessing and its left rests at the side. It stands on a round pedestal before a golden lattice screen with cross-shaped cutouts and coloured glass panels. A caption at the bottom reads 'nithyanandotsavam day 18 - abhishekam to sph swamiji'.
