A homa fire burns in a square brick fire pit with red flower petals scattered on the bricks, in a dimly lit hall. Behind the flames, a seated figure in an orange-red garment with gold-embroidered trim and layered beaded necklaces sits cross-legged on a tiger-skin seat before a gold-framed throne back. A monitor stands on the floor to the right, and in the foreground a dark-clad leg and a metal bowl sit at the edge of the frame. The seated figure is a depiction-style candidate with long swept-back hair, a red forehead mark and ornate gold necklaces, but the appearance is uncertain, so identity is unsure.

He wears layered beaded gold necklaces and a red tilak on his forehead, and his hands rest in a meditative pose. In the foreground a tall flame rises from a homa fire pit, with a copper vessel and a blurred figure in orange cloth at the lower edge. Two people appear at most: the seated man and a partially visible figure in the foreground. A lit oil lamp sits on a ledge in the upper background.2012-07-29 +1 copiesA photograph of a homa fire pit with tall orange flames rising from a brick-lined rectangular altar sprinkled with red petals. Behind it, a man seated cross-legged on a tiger-striped cloth over a gold-framed ornate throne wears a red-orange cloth, layered gold necklaces and a rudraksha-style beaded mala, with a red bindi on his forehead. Dark background, a small brass vessel at the lower edge, and a carpet at the left. Appearance cues are not clearly enough to confirm identity, so the seated figure is described by role only.2012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copiesJuly 29 20122012-07-29 +1 copies
