Photograph of many shallow disposable leaf plates filled with homa offering materials laid out on a grey paved ground. The plates hold dried herbs and flowers, brown and black seeds, grains, bark or wood sticks, a round coconut-like nut, dark red dried pieces, and a small black stick. A silver plate with a brass vessel sits at the top edge.

A top-down view of many small shallow leaf plates arranged in rows on a woven striped mat, each holding a different dried herb, seed, bark piece, root, flower, powder or mineral. Some plates are pale, some brown, some bright yellow or black. No people are visible; this appears to be an arrangement of yajna offering materials laid out before a fire ritual.
