A person with long dark braided hair, wearing a maroon-red robe and a pink-and-white floral head garland, bends forward at the waist with hands together, bowing before a raised stone platform. Yellow marigold garlands hang along the platform's edge. Behind it stands a gilded deity murti and a second figure in a maroon robe with a white flower garland, beside brass lamps and small golden lion figures. A red curtain and banana leaves frame the scene.2016-12-19December 20 20172017-12-20A photograph inside a gold-decorated temple sanctum during a ritual. A bearded man with long dark dreadlocks stands at centre, bare-shouldered, wearing a rust-red dhoti, rudraksha armlet and a long white-and-pink flower garland, with eyes lowered. In the foreground, the back of a man with curly dark hair wears an orange cloth and a sacred thread, and another person with dreadlocks is partly visible at left. Behind them, a gilded deity murti wears an orange and gold headdress and jewelled ornaments, with garlands and gold carved pillars surrounding it. The scene suggests a devotional darshan or coronation-style ceremony.2017-05-05December 02 20162016-12-02May 30 20182018-05-30December 20 20172017-12-20
