A man with a shaved head, wearing a saffron-orange shawl and orange dhoti, holds a lit oil lamp (aarti) toward the figure while pouring water from a small vessel onto a stone base. Fruit and flower offerings sit on a brass plate, with pink petals scattered below. Behind him, people in white ritual clothes stand with palms pressed together, and a striped canopy and a trident-like staff are visible in the background. Some attendees wear white and orange garments and watch the offering.2010-11-20November 20 20102010-11-20December 17 20112011-12-17May 01 20152015-05-01September 05 20162016-09-05
