Close crop of two men in a red-curtained room. On the left, a man in orange saffron cloth draped over one shoulder wears a dark rudraksha mala around his neck and a small pendant. On the right, a bare-chested man holds a long rudraksha mala up by its end, showing a round pendant with a printed portrait, and wears a red cord and a rudraksha-bead pendant. Both men are partly cropped at the face, so no features are visible, and the room has white flooring.2017-07-06Close-up photo of a seated person in saffron-orange robes. Dark brown rudraksha beads on a string mala hang across the chest, and the right hand holds the beads near the lap while the left hand rests on the thigh.
