July 14 20132013-07-14A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne pours yellow powder from his right hand into a large ornamental silver bowl with engraved floral patterns, set on a green cloth. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his bare upper body, a long multi-strand rudraksha mala hanging to his chest, and a small red bindi on his forehead, with his eyes lowered in concentration.
