Skinny Brahmin
This is the skinny Brahmin priest I mentioned in a previous post, but I'll save you the click and repeat the relevant part of that post here for convenience:
"The first stop, Airateswara Temple (also /Airavatesvara/Airavateshwarar Temple), was also nicely un-busy. As we wandered within the temple a skinny little Brahmin priest gestured for us to follow him to the inner sanctum, where he said a long blessing, gave each of us a tilak and was quite happy to receive our donation. Then as we came across him a few minutes later in a different part of the temple he urged me to take a photo as he posed in a shrine to Shiva (I think it was Shiva), and once again was happy to receive a donation. He seemed like a nice guy so we were cool with handing over some cash."
