A photograph of a homa ritual at a temple setting. A man seen from behind, bare-backed with a loose orange shawl over his shoulder and orange dhoti, leans over a stone fire pit releasing white smoke. He is placing offerings, with a bunch of bananas beside him. Behind him are golden lion sculptures, garlands of yellow and white flowers, a golden kalasha, and red and gold draped fabric with ornate decorations. A small orange-turbaned portrait appears in the top-left corner, labelled Sudarshan Homa and Vijayotsavam Day 5, 25 Feb 2022.
