Night outdoor scene around a blazing fire pit on the ground. A woman in orange-red clothing sits at left, leaning toward the flames with her hands near the fire, apparently tending an offering. Several seated participants in darker and light clothing sit in a loose circle behind the fire, including a man in a light shirt at right. A small child in orange appears at far left edge, and a lit lantern hangs at upper right. The fire lights faces and cloth in warm orange tones against dark surroundings.

Night scene at an outdoor fire ritual. A central fire burns in a low pit on the ground, with a brass vessel and small lamps beside it. A woman with dark hair, wearing a red-orange garment and beaded necklaces, sits at left near the fire, tending it. Behind the fire, a row of seated devotees in light and orange clothing sit with hands pressed together in prayer, and others sit at the right edge. Tents and tarpaulin are visible in the dark background. Figures are seated close to the flames under dim firelight.

A night outdoor satsang at an ashram courtyard. A figure in saffron-orange robes sits on a raised platform or dais at centre, with a lit fire or flame burning in front of the platform. Two other seated figures in orange clothing sit nearby on the platform. Dense crowd of seated devotees in white clothing and white head coverings fills the foreground, facing the platform. Behind the dais, a fountain sprays water beside a white railing, with illuminated lights and a wooden structure above. Warm lamps light the scene against the dark night sky.

Night photograph of a small outdoor gathering around a bright open fire on the ground. A person with long dark hair, wearing a reddish-orange garment, sits cross-legged at the fire, tending it or making an offering. Around them, several participants in casual clothes sit and stand in the dark, some in orange and white, watching the flames. Strings of prayer flags or cloth hang overhead at the left. The setting appears to be a camp in the Himalayas, with a dark hillside behind. The fire is.

A night-time outdoor ritual by a fire. A figure with long dark hair and an orange-red garment sits cross-legged at the lower left, bending over a lit fire pit with offerings and small oil lamps on a low platform. Around the fire, several seated devotees in light clothes watch, and a few people stand at the right edge beneath a canopy or tent frame. The flames light the scene warmly against the darkness.

A night photograph of a ritual fire burning on the ground, ringed by round stones, with tall orange flames rising into the dark. Behind the fire, two or three seated figures in dark and light clothing, one wearing a white head wrap, sit near a wooden post and a lantern-like light. The setting suggests an outdoor homa or yagna at night.

Night outdoor gathering at an ashram courtyard lit by a floodlight, with a fire pit or homa area at centre. Many devotees in orange and saffron robes sit in rows on mats and the ground facing the fire area, with a few standing near a red-painted building on the left. A laptop and a microphone stand are at the lower left, and a white banner is visible. Some figures in orange clothes stand around the central ceremony area.

Night outdoor fire ritual on sandy ground: a large bonfire of stacked wooden logs blazes at centre with sparks rising. Many people sit cross-legged in a wide circle, many in white clothes and some in red or pink saris, while a row of standing devotees in white dhotis and shawls watches. At the right edge a figure in an orange-saffron robe with a saffron head covering stands beside the fire, gesturing toward it, consistent with a homa or yagna. Children in white shirts sit in the foreground with their backs to the camera.
