In the centre, a shaven-headed man in orange robes with rudraksha malas and beaded armlets sits before a flower-covered platform decorated with yellow and white garlands, red roses and small metal deity figures. He holds an incense stick above a brass tray holding oil lamps, brass bowls, a small kettle and a lit wick. Bananas, red and yellow flowers and leaves lie on a striped cloth in the foreground. Behind him, another orange-clad sannyasi sits with folded hands. On the right, a woman in orange robes with a beaded necklace and a white ornament in her hair sits with a bowl. Smoke rises from the incense on the flower platform.2018-01-14January 08 20172017-01-08January 14 20182018-01-14Close-up photo of a pair of bare feet in an orange robe standing on a golden tray surrounded by silver plates and bowls of yellow turmeric paste, pink lotus flowers and small silver cups. The feet appear to be receiving a ritual washing or padapuja, with flower petals scattered across the tray. No face is visible, so no individual can be identified from this view.2010-10-30 +1 copiesDecember 07 20092009-12-07January 12 20172017-01-12Close photo of a puja setup on a white marble floor.
