March 21 20202020-03-21Photo 11729029A seated man in a dark turban wears a maroon shawl over a bare upper body, with multiple long rudraksha mala necklaces, rudraksha bracelets, a gold pendant and white and grey sacred markings on his forehead and arms. He reads an open book held on a wooden stand, sitting before an ornate silver-coloured throne carved with floral motifs. A silver ceremonial staff lies in the foreground, and an orange light glows at the left edge. The image is a photograph of a single person in a ritual setting.

He wears rudraksha malas across his chest and shoulders, a coiled reddish rudraksha garland with a cobra-head shape over his shoulder, rudraksha bracelets, and white ash bands on his arms and chest. His right hand rests on an open book on a gold-embossed wooden stand, and a gold-decorated box sits in front of him. Nobody else is visible.
