A photograph of a ritual blessing in a temple-like hall. A bearded man with long dreadlocked hair, gold earrings, a red-orange draped garment, rudraksha beads, gold armlets and bangles is placing his right hand on the forehead of a woman with shoulder-length light hair. She wears a gold-toned sari-style garment and rudraksha necklaces, eyes closed, with her hands raised in front. Behind them stands a golden deity murti, and white-clad people and a standing figure in saffron appear in the background. The scene suggests a ritual or darshan.
