September 07 20172017-09-07A close view of a brick-lined fire pit (homa kunda) with tall orange flames rising from it. Its rim is painted white and pink with chalk-style decorative lines, and it sits on a multicoloured cloth. A small brass spouted vessel with a red-wrapped handle stands at the left edge. In the blurred background are a white flower-covered offering tray and red-and-white striped pillars. No people are visible in the frame.2017-09-07Photo 11706457 +2 copiesPhoto 11715241 +2 copiesAugust 22 20172017-08-22 +1 copiesPhoto 11714859 +1 copiesA photograph of a square stone fire pit (homa kunda) with a green-tinged stone rim decorated with white powder lines and scattered red petals, holding a bright flame. Two polished metal oil lamps (deepa/lamps) stand behind it, and a small brass cup with powder sits at the lower left beside several small bowls of red and yellow offerings. A saffron cloth bundle with jewelled trim and a flower sprig lies on a striped cloth at the right, and a smoking vessel of burning material appears at the upper left. No people are visible in the frame, so this depicts a ritual setting for aushada preparation at a fire ritual rather than a person.2017-08-31April 11 20182018-04-11 +1 copiesAugust 21 20172017-08-21 +1 copiesPhoto 11701817 +1 copiesAugust 31 20172017-08-31Photo 11706341 +1 copies
