Outdoors under a pale blue sky, a bearded man with long dreadlocks and a red tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged and smiles while holding white and red flowers in cupped hands over a golden-yellow turmeric mound. Multiple rudraksha malas, including bracelets on his arms, hang across his bare chest, and he wears a brown dhoti. Before him lie pink flower garlands, a rudraksha mala, bananas and a heap of yellow powder on sand, with a silver kalasha and a silver lamp stand at right.
