Photograph of a seated ritual in an indoor hall with potted plants and yellow flowers behind. On the left, a person in a red-orange turban and orange-red robe wears a garland of yellow marigolds, red roses and white flowers, and holds up a small green plant. Facing them on the right, a shaved-headed man with a white tilak wears a rudraksha mala and orange-and-gold shawl and reaches toward the plant. Between them is a wooden tray with oranges, a red fruit, rudraksha beads, gold ornaments and bangles. Behind, a standing person in white clothes with a red-brown shoulder bag holds an object.
