A photo of an ashram serving area. In the foreground, a man in a cream kurta with embroidered neckline reaches toward a stack of striped paper cups beside a large steel cooking pot on a yellow-draped table. A man in white with clear plastic gloves and a dark beaded mala around his neck stands behind a floral-patterned apron, handling food near the pot. Behind them, another man in white stands in a pale pink hall with a red curtain and a palm frond in the front. No a person candidate is clearly visible, so this is best read as a sewa or annadan food-service scene.2011-08-29August 29 20112011-08-29 +1 copiesAugust 29 20112011-08-29 +1 copiesA photograph of volunteers serving food in a dining hall.
