A smiling man with long dreadlocks and a full beard sits cross-legged on a raised seat, bare-chested except for an orange-red saffron cloth draped over his left shoulder and body, wearing a gold pendant necklace and a rudraksha mala. He holds a red cloth and sits before a brass tray with a steel tumbler and a bowl of yellow flowers. Behind him, an illuminated deity murti decorated with garlands and colourful drapery stands within a temple hall, and a tiger-skin-like fabric hangs on a seat to the right. The page identifies this as a person, and his long swept hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklace are consistent with that claim, so this is an appearance-based probable identification.2018-04-15A smiling man with long dreadlocked hair and a beard sits on a red-and-white striped mat in front of an illuminated deity shrine. He wears a rust-orange wrap over bare shoulders and a gold chain with a pendant, and rudraksha-style beads hang at his waist. Behind him, colourful garlanded deity murtis and a golden lamp stand on a yellow-draped altar, with a white and blue information board to his left. Pillars with curtains frame the temple interior.2018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15A seated man with long dreadlocked hair and a short beard sits on a red and white striped mat in front of a shrine. He is shirtless except for a rust-orange saffron wrap over his shoulders, a gold necklace and a red wrist thread, and he smiles while mixing material from a steel bowl with his hands. Bowls of yellow turmeric paste and dark powder sit before him, with a silver tray and white cloth nearby. Behind him stands a golden deity murti garlanded with yellow flowers, and a decorated shrine with colourful garlands and a yellow-draped table is visible. Along the right edge, a partially visible seated person in a dark shawl is seen, and a small framed photograph hangs near the shrine. This appears to be a puja preparation at an ashram temple setting.2018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15April 15 20182018-04-15
