Two women in pink and red saris stand behind, and several men in white and checked shirts sit or stand around the group on the floor.

In the centre, a man in white dhoti with gold border and a rudraksha mala sits cross-legged holding a folded paper, with a pink and blue card beside him. Around him, men and women in white and cream clothes with gold borders, several wearing rudraksha malas, sit in a circle; an older woman with grey hair on the right gestures with her hand. No one in the frame shows the swept hair, crown, saffron robes or ceremonial gold cues needed to suggest the person in question, so no a person candidate is identified. Roughly a dozen people are visible.2017-05-20September 15 20152015-09-15 +1 copies
