A bare-chested young boy stands with his right palm open and upturned while a man in white dhoti with gold border holds his wrist. The boy wears rudraksha mala necklaces and a pendant chain; the man wears a rudraksha mala and a white shawl with gold edge. Behind them a figure in orange robe and another in white stand near a wooden chair with red flowers. The setting appears to be a ritual initiation.2017-07-06November 05 20102010-11-05July 05 20172017-07-05July 06 20172017-07-06A photograph of two young male attendees seated cross-legged on a peach-coloured cloth during a ritual.
