A photograph of a bare-chested man in a rust-red shawl raising a bundle of green mango leaves overhead with his right arm, eyes half-closed and smiling, during a ritual. He wears a long gold-bead necklace, rudraksha bracelets and a dark forehead mark, with long dreadlocked hair swept back. He sits beside an ornate silver-and-red throne with a microphone stand at its side. To the left, an attendant in an orange turban holds a small silver vessel. Red curtains and a yellow wooden panel form the backdrop. a person, identified by long dreadlocked hair, a gold bead necklace, rudraksha malas and rust-red shawl, seated on a throne during a leaf-raising ritual.
