In the foreground, shaved-headed monks in saffron-orange robes sit in rows with palms pressed together in anjali, some with white vertical tilak marks on their foreheads and rudraksha malas around their necks. Before each figure lies a banana leaf heaped with food, with small paper cups of drink beside it. Behind them, rows of people in red and white sit on mats, and a few white-clad attendants stand at the far right near a large vessel. The scene suggests a community food-offering ritual.2013-01-01 +1 copiesNovember 14 20132013-11-14Indoor photo of a row of saffron-robed sannyasi men seated cross-legged on the floor with palms pressed together in prayer before a meal. Each wears a rudraksha mala, sacred ash marks on forehead and arms, and orange-brown dhoti with yellow borders. Banana leaf plates of rice, curries, papadum and sweets sit in front of them, with paper cups of water. A white marble floor, pink walls, a red curtain and a saffron-draped stage with a monitor appear behind. Ash and rudraksha-clad devotees are seated in rows, and the scene suggests an annadan or group meal before food is taken.2013-12-16 +1 copies
