In the centre, a young man with long curly black hair and a white vertical tilak on his forehead wears a saffron-orange robe and a dark rudraksha mala, sitting cross-legged with hands clasped and speaking. Around him, men in white kurtas and orange shawls sit in rows, some with shaved heads; a brass container and a small stone block sit on the mat in front. The room has a plain pale wall and a red curtain at the upper left. The central figure shows long swept hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the a person candidate is uncertain; the seated devotees and priests are described by role.2017-03-03February 16 20162016-02-16Outdoor devotional gathering on a sandy ground with a woman in long dark hair seated on a white-covered raised platform, wearing an orange saffron wrap and a red bindi. She sits on a red-and-gold patterned mat while a man in white kurta with an orange shawl kneels before her, and a second man in white with orange shawl holds a stack of books. Behind them, people in white clothes and orange shawls stand, and seated devotees in white and a girl in gold-bordered sari with a ribbon badge sit on a striped mat under a canopy with orange drapery. The swami-style candidate is not confidently identifiable from appearance, so the seated woman is described by role only.2006-12-31
