A photograph of a devotional blessing inside a temple-like hall. A figure seated at left, wearing a maroon and gold wrap, yellow and white flower garlands, gold bangles and gold earrings, with a sacred mark on the forehead, leans forward and offers a small golden object toward a bald man in a white kurta who kneels with his head bowed. Behind them a golden deity murti stands on a purple cloth, garlanded with flowers. Around them women and children watch closely: a woman in a white sari with a rudraksha mala, a woman in a green salwar kameez, a small girl in a floral dress, and a boy in a red shirt. The setting has red carpet and a purple drape.
