Outdoor ceremony on a stepped stone platform with tiered stone steps behind. A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne wears a saffron-red robe, a white-and-violet flower garland, gold necklaces, and gold armbands, with long dark hair and a white forehead mark; he appears to be Swamiji (probable), based on his long swept-back hair, ornate gold adornments and throne-seated posture. Seated before him on a colourful striped cloth, a bare-chested priest in white dhoti applies a mark to his forehead while another priest with rudraksha malas offers a tray with fruit and flowers. Women in orange saris sit around the throne, one holding a metal plate, and a woman in white sits near the priests. A woman in an orange sari stands on the steps in the background. A metal trident stands beside the throne.2017-06-26A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a tall gold back, wearing a saffron-red robe, a white-and-purple flower garland and beaded necklaces, with white markings on his forehead and an armband. Beside him, a woman in an orange sari sits on a striped multicolored mat, and a bald man in white dhoti with white forehead marks holds a silver plate of offerings. Other attendees sit nearby in orange and cream clothing, one standing in orange at the top of stone steps. A gold staff with a trident-like finial stands by the throne. The scene suggests a ritual gathering with offerings on plates.2017-06-26June 26 20172017-06-26June 26 20172017-06-26June 26 20172017-06-26June 26 20172017-06-26May 29 20172017-05-29June 26 20172017-06-26May 29 20172017-05-29June 26 20172017-06-26May 29 20172017-05-29June 26 20172017-06-26
