At centre, a square wooden homa fire pit with a smoking fire sits on a red floor, scattered with petals and flowers. Several men in white dhotis stand and kneel around it; one holds a brass vessel and another pours offerings. On the right, a decorated deity murti with garlands of yellow and red flowers sits on a silver-and-gold setting, with brass lamps and a kalasha nearby. At left, seated men in white clothes chant into microphones, with fruit plates and a ceremonial bowl in front of them. A standing man wears an orange turban and rudraksha mala. Hanging decorations and lamps fill the upper area. No one in the scene is identifiable as a person by the cues required.2016-12-07July 04 20162016-07-04 +1 copies
