A photograph of a home puja in which a seated figure in a rust-red and gold-bordered robe, with a red and white flower garland and gold bangles, holds a tall silver ceremonial staff upright. Around them, several shaved-headed young men in saffron and orange robes and rudraksha malas stand or kneel, and a woman in a cream sari with a red blouse and mala sits kneeling beside a metal vessel as a man in a white shirt with an orange shawl bends forward to tend it. A photographer in white with a camera stands at right, and a television and framed floral decor sit in the background. The seated figure shows long hair and ornate gold adornments, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity.
