Front-row women sit cross-legged with eyes closed in meditation, one with grey hair in a red saree and orange shawl, others with hands folded. Behind them, a lamp, purple water bottle and a golden deity murti are visible at the back. No single figure is clearly identifiable as the swami from appearance, so no one is labelled as Swamiji.2014-04-07Annadhan in 20122012-01-01 +1 copiesAugust 23 20142014-08-23Photo 11690431A large group of seated devotees performs a ritual in a hall with a golden wall and tiled floor.
